How about the one where the whales have a route from Ojos de lebre, under baja to bola.

I've seen that cave if it's out on the east side of the point. Rumor I got was it was used by US coast watchers. I wonder what Art Bell would have to say about this.

I thought La Llorona was a Mexican (vs Baja) story?

It seems to move around a lot. I always thought it originated in Oaxaca, but there's even a local Yuma version that has a woman drowning her children in one of the local canals (that didn't exist before the dams on the Colorado)



All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.

I'm desperate for the archives to be up also since without them it will be harder to get advertisers.
Hurry up Mrs fdt
