Blast from the past: BBBB-1 in 2001.


Anyone here (besides me) attended M's (Michelle's) first group get together. I recall 'Paulina', 'Santiago', and others were there, including Earle ('fang' on Nomad) and Eric of Amigos de Baja... This was back in the Amigos de Baja days, before Nomad replaced Amigos as our forum. Any others who are lurkers only now? Michelle, jeans, David Eidell, and others, have dropped off the radar...

Doing some spring cleaning, I found this bumper sticker:




The event was at Cielito Lindo (San Quintín south) and I was driving the Viva Baja Van on its test run as a tour business... after the BBBB-1, we continued on to Santa Ynez, Tinaja de Yubay, L.A. Bay, a lost mission search, Gonzaga Bay, and home. Here is my photo album of that trip: https://vivabaja.com/van1/

The video from the event and our tour after, made by El Camote: https://vimeo.com/389613694 (miss Neal Johns!)

When did they close? I was last there in 2017 and it was open.
Hope all is well with you, Larry!

Glad you enjoy them!
See all my trip photos at www.vivabaja.com in the photographs section (1965 -2022). Also, I have a historic photos section going back over 100 years.
Always great to hear from you! I hope your son remembered to give you the Baja Atlas I left with him, for you! 😊
