You're referring to Amigos de Baja (bajanet.com), run by Earle and Eric Robitaille, and Trish Ramsey:

A nod also to another early Baja/internet adopter, retired UCR professor Fred Metcalf - and his Baja California Information Pages - still available
online at:

BTW... I see Earle still checks in here every once in a while, posting as recently as January 28, 2014. Many good wishes to the Robitailles.

Thanks Doug, I haven't been on the thread since Sancho asked... and I was reading all the replies to see if anyone beat me to the answer... It was
good to see Earle posting here still. I wonder how Eric is doing? I think I last some them was at Camp Gecko in 2005?

1) source for useful information, helpful for planning Baja travel/living
2) humorous/thoughtful anecdotes about Baja life
3) great photos!

need for up to date medical information to be shared to all because of the lack of consistency of medical plans between Mexico and the US.

Since we were mentioning Amigos de Baja and Earle and Eric... last seeing them in 2005... I saw and visited with Eric twice in 2017, at Loreto and on
the road to San Javier. He sends me a question by email every so often, too.
