Thanks Ken... Just fyi, you can go back to any of your posts on Nomad and fix errors or add/ subtract content by pushing the 'edit' icon next to your post... I make typos and add maps and stuff... so it is handy.

Well, I tell ya, Mike is waaaaaay more entertaining than any silly old eclipse(it clouded over about an hour before it started)!!! Our little solstice gathering was full of belly laughs...I think I even had one of those laugh till ya cry fits...he is one hilarious guy...never mind a book...he should do stand up comedy.

Don Kay has shacked up with Red Mesa and happy to be there...solo vino is a most excellent perra and very stealth at stealing pot luck food!!!

Today's mission is to try to figure out how to repair Mike's packs which took a beating and need some serious repair...so that will be a challenge...they are really thrashed...too bad somomule couldnt send some new ones down for the next half of the trip...trade em in.

Now that we assknapped Don Kay...we are keeping him till after Christmas so Mike can continue on if he wants but Don Kay is staying!!!

Next appearance...Don Kay goes surfing.....

I just spoke to Mike there at Asuncion, sounds like he’s having a fantastic time and being well looked after, and mentioned something about Santa Claus parading around on Don Kay. Can’t wait to see the photos.

He definitely found room at the Inn this Christmas, thanks to Shari and Juan.

And he’s been attending to his pack which took a beating against the granite and cactus spines, etc… and he now has that repaired with sail material found on his beachcombing and a little work with a rivet gun and hot glue gun.

Yep, Baja beat the heck out of all my burro equipment, and most of it was held together with duct tape and bungees long before I reached Loreto. And I was inside my seventh pair of boots when I completed my walk around the coast.
