Beautiful photos... Keep cheking those Kragen HID lamps for cracking in the plastic housing, near the bottom bolt. Love the HID light, but needs to be in a metal house for Baja... at least after driving to Gonzaga Bay and Las Animas!

Hmm... made me puke in my mouth a little.



'Funny' story actually this year. After going with my father and his friends since I was very young, we have maybe run into 3-5 other surfers in about 20 years. We don't usually go during the holiday week (like I did this time...yikes).

Anyways, I pull over this hill where you get he first glimpse of the ocean and see about 10 surfers running around on the beach, in the water, and a bunch of trucks. I literally almost pooped my pants. Apparently these guys got lost on the dirt road and got spat out (and stuck, in which I pulled them out) only to find the wave. Lame. At least they were nice, but, way too many people in the camp spot.

The last photo of me was supposed to be weird like that. No emotion, just a wave, like an Indian or something hahah. I am definitely not a hard ass to say the least.

Woody,
What's with the serious rain forecast??? Don't the rain/sun gods know that slick clay is not as good as a bit of dust?

Next 2-3 weeks of lotsa moisture is what I am seeing.....hope your trip is primo...I will think of you as I muddle my way south:cool:

Oh yeah! I remember with my dad in '91 (I think?) it was Baja underwater. All the arroyos were like white water rapids, and the entire coast was just mud. So fun..sort of!
