David,
We ran across a few rattlesnakes this spring break as well. This one was on the road between Playa Rafael and Bahia. He was beautiful and very well
fed.

We left him alone once he cleared the road and was safe under a bush.

This poor guy wasn't so lucky. He was found on the road to La Gringa, dead but still wiggling. We removed his head so he wouldn't be dangerous to
others who may want to check him out.

Parting shot. Wild life was abundant, that's for certain.

No, but I've always wanted to try to filet one up. The one on the road was "road kill" all squashed in places, the other was out and about, not in
harms way, so we let him be. If ever I happen across one that has to be dealt with, then I'm looking forward to the experience of cooking him up.

Paulina, Teddi was all upset because she thought she was #1 WiW when you met her at Marv's place in Santa Inez. Keep your number a secret.
She has ridden a mule over 80% of the El Camino Real. I am trying to get her to write a book on it. She also does history re the old Baja families.
Ten days on a mule would kill me!
My motto:
Never let a Dragon pass by without pulling its tail!

Neal,
I'm sorry I let the cat out of the bag! I promise I won't tell another soul I meet out in the middle of no where my WIW # again! Small world that one
way street of baja!
Teddi is a baja best seller in waiting. Keep after her, and if it would help matters any, I MIGHT give up my WIW# to her...But only for an autographed
first copy of her book!
As Always,
Your WIW #.......P.<*)))><

Here's Teddi (BajaBucko) when I met her in San Diego in Apr. 2001 (dropping off fishing equipment for her and her sons, provided by Whistler). She was
on her way to first mule ride Junipero Serra's cargo trail to Gonzaga (from near Mision Santa Maria), then on to Baja Sur for mor fun on the Cortes.
Good luck to you Neal if you can get her to write the book! I am still waiting for a trip report from the 2001 adventure!
The year before, she rode a mule on the Camino Real starting from near El Crucero, past Calamajue, Coco's Corner, Las Palmitas and up to Mision Santa
Maria... ending her ride at Rancho Santa Ynez. Harry Crosby and Graham Mackintosh both know her...

That is 'Baja Bucko' from Fred's board pictured above... She's a little thing, but bigger than life with what she takes on! Thanks to Neal for
re-posting her short report here on Nomad, where it will stay archived as long as Doug is able...
