New to Baja Nomad (Updated with sketch)
Hi, My name is Sharron, my husband Pete and I are building a second home in El Cardonal. I have been lurking for some time and find this site very
helpful. We are just getting started, have water, power, and septic in. We can't wait!

Welcome! There is a wealth of knowledge, experience and help on this site. You will get varied and often opposing opinions on most subjects. If you
have been lurking you will begin to see patterns of thought so you can choose the posters you trust. There is also a lot of humor. Jump in and have
fun.
Best of luck with your building. I hope you will be able to be present during the building. Read the novel God and Mr. Gomez

Hola y bienvenido a Nomads...wow, water, electricity AND septic...what more could a girl want? Take lots of pics of building stages and don't sweat
the small stuff gal. NIce to see a lurker come out of the closet Sharrone, we look forward to hearing more from you and hopefully meeting you one day.
What are you building?? casa?? concrete or wood? We have just started a little wood house here too...they go up soooo much faster. So don't despair,
just remember...it's all part of the culture and to go with it...suerte amiga

Welcome aboard Sharrone! Where is El Cardonal loacated? I can't find it on my AAA map. Would also be interested in what type of structure you are
building.

Thanks everyone. We are building a concrete home. Still trying to decide which builder to use. What we wanted and what we can afford seem to be
very different. We will get it done. but it will be smaller, which is better less to clean. We have a wonderful lot with a great view just above the
beach. I will keep you posted.

El Cardonal is locatedon the Sea of Cortez north of Los Barrills, south of La Paz. A small town. We have friends that moved there several years ago.
Went to visit several times, fell in love and bought a lot.

Welcome Sharrone! I am a "newbie" at everything here. Many people on this site have been very helpful without even knowing it.
Good luck with your home...patience, persistence, a large crying towel and a sense of humore and you'll get there!
