No, I'm no law breaker. I can post my life story in here if the owner does not mind. I have an outline written out but it is a little long. I am sure someone will write "WGAF" HA H A H A

Here is a little taste of my life and where I come from. Remember it is a very rough draft which I started to write for my kids to read someday.

DAD’S LIFE (ROUGH OUTLINE)
My name is David M. and I am 54 years old. I was born on December 16, 1952 in Mesa Arizona. I am the eldest of 12 children. I am a Sagittarius and I love adventure. My adventure started when I was five years old after my parents Nephi and Anna Mae took me to live in a colony of ex-Mormons in the state of Chihuahua Mexico called Colonia LeBaron. This colony is a small place that is just south of Galeana Chihuahua Mexico and is and just north of San Buenaventura Chihuahua Mexico. This is a colony where they practice polygamy. (I do not practice it.) During my childhood I did not have time to be a kid because the elders had us all in the fields clearing it so they could plant alfalfa, tomatoes, sugar cane and corn. It was difficult time to say the least. By the time I was 9 years old I was taught how to plow the cleared fields behind a mule team and was out there plowing the rows to be planted. That is the way it was between 9 and 12 years old. (There is a lot more and it is long winded)

Good stuff, but better if on it's own thread, not the one about Bob & Susan's... Do tell more!

Yes... do choose the best forum for your subject... General Baja Discussion if it doesn't fit in any of the others like Trip Reports, Historic Interests & Literature, Questions & Answers, etc.

Some of us have been asking for a "writers' forum". Maybe you could wait for that. There are some good and interesting writers on the BajaNomad. I think you would get the most appreciative readers in a "writers' forum". Of course, there will always be those who criticize, no matter what. Hopefully they would screen themselves and just not go in. I, for one, will be looking forward to your story. :yes:

Bob and Susan,
I would say the same thing to you. In my opinion, you are fairly priced for what you are offering. Having the means but choosing not to spend their money that way, or not having the means; it's all OK. You will attract plenty who do. Those who choose not to, or cannot afford it will just not stay there. Sure, they can express that opinion here, but I think it is undue negativism for the beautiful place you have created, and therefore inappropriate. I wish they would self-screen and just not go in.:rolleyes:

Thanks Vandenberg for the U2U. You're quite the gentleman. Sorry for my outburst.

And I still can't wait 'till I make it to Bob & Susan's!

Vandenberg,
You naughty boy. I just saw the Big John post in another thread. What a desperate looser, and really good for a laugh! Had I seen his thread before I would have really enjoyed the humor of your post. Now, I think I'll go back to his thread and say something horrible. If you're into that kind of thing, see ya there!

Cleaning up some loose ends....


Paula...first thanks for spelling my "handle" correctly, and yes I am in total agreement with the idea that moral rules of behavior pre-date bibles by a bunch. I'm reminded of my last over-reaction to an insult when someone thought they were going to stun me by saying: "I guess even an atheist can have morals."

Don't get me wrong, I wish Bob and Susan every success. In an age when a single Tuna fish can sell for more than $50.000.00 and a comparable serving of smelt is equally nourishing, we are no longer talking about "real" value.

And Barry...Yreka is the capitol of the mythical State of Jefferson. The county seat of 6400 square mile Siskiyou County it presides over a country with a population density of just under 6 people per square mile. It is also a place where very few people ever lock their doors when they leave the house. And, it is home to my very favorite unintentional pallindrome...Yreka Bakery.

It's a beautiful day from my office window...have a great
Sunday y'all.

Well, they are natural to me. :lol:

I'd be terribly ungrateful if I let myself be bothered by them enough to detract from the ever-changing magic of the volcano.

I missed the sign the last two time I passed your place. Still planning to stop by to admire your work.

Mom,
I think, again, you're jumping to conclusions. BigJohn is a guy who just marches to a different drummer then the one who guides our band. Nothing wrong with that, and after reading his other posts, I think this guy is quite on the level. I, for one, hope he'll find a wonderful lady, of like set of mind, to travel with him through our beautiful state. If you get my way Big John, make sure to look me up.
Maybe even find one of the Nomad forum ladies to be traveling with you :biggrin::biggrin:

Bob & Susan,
You have gotten 3635 views on this string so far. Some of those will shake out to be guests in your beautiful Garden of Eden.
I'll see you in January. Having my own house in Mulege precludes me from staying in your lighthouse, but I can be an impostor, mingle with the guests and sweep someone off a stool in the Susan-built bar. I can even rummage through the laundry and don a pool robe. :cool:

Holy Chingadero!


I get home and the first post I read is like a bad breakfast. Starts off sweet but ends up in the toilet.
Screw this, I'm going back to Baja.

Nice to meet you Bob and Sue. Love your unique place.

Glad you liked Buzz! Like some of you Nomads, he makes a great first impression.:lol:
