I sent them a link to the vizcaino article on a dead male body found in the desert.

I had the same thought and am glad to hear that it was not Gary.

I certainly hope so. I would keep an eye on the news though. Out of the way places have made mistakes before when dealing with bodies in advanced decomposition.

You certainly have an interesting way with words RTS!! you handled that statement very delicately and with consideration.

From Kim:

Thank you, Blanca, for everything! The body in the newspaper is confirmed to be a young man, 17 to 20.

"Willardguy"s sighting turned out not to be Gary's car.

We'll be running the flyer ad again in Baja Times and the spanish paper, forget the name.

Just truly thankful we still have so many folks trying hard for us. Bless you all!

Kimberly

ood day, Blanca,

Yes, absolutely appreciate Willardguy, and the others on the site offering help, looking for him or his car.

I've been thinking we might call out that this time of year, Gary would definitely be near Whale watching locales, whale shark lagoons, and/or wherever there are fishing boats. He could live off of fresh fish, indefinitely. So maybe we should be noting to those Nomads that frequent these places, or know others that do, to be on special lookout for him and/or his car. He also carries a very nice Canon camera and would have it with him if whale-watching, maybe even if on a fishing boat, or just taking pictures along the beach and cliff areas. I'm particularly focused on areas around San Quintin down the coast south, perhaps Guerrero Negro and San Ignacio. On east coast I guess near BLA.

These are places I think are hardest for us to search because they're remote, visitors come and go there, and to workers, Gary might look like every other older white guy. Just anxious to try other avenues, you know?

Feel free to post part or partial of these thoughts...

Appreciate you, and hope all's good by you,
Best Regards,
Kimberly

Nomad from Florida 'Bryan McKenzie', don't forget, really made an effort to pass out flyers on his vacation ... I think everyone who can help is or has, and that is really special about the Baja Nomads.

Poster sightings


I saw a few posters last week at Pemex stations and Oxxo stores. Also kept an eye out for the vehicle while driving and camping at lagoons.

What's the most efficient way to notify someone of news? If I had seen something of value, who would I call?

I have asked this question too. It is very...surprising that there is no mention of this ever. Also, I contacted the family regarding a possible sighting well over a month ago via email. Never heard back from them...makes me wonder....:?:

Sorry to say it, but it's probably due to the high amount of missing persons reports every year. Now approaching 900,000 so far in the USA. Around 2,300 per day, including children and adults...tough to get all that on tv.

We wish for the best possible coverage and outcome.

BajaBlanca , seems when ever an american goes missing in the baja it's big Tv news .

I'll ask again , has anyone spoken to the news media ? Seems like this is just the story that they would jump on .

They love to bash mexico about all of the bad things .
