Hey Keri!


I knew there was some reason I liked you. Neil Diamond is one of my favorites also, I've been to every concert he's ever had up here since 1974 (6, this was years ago), He sure puts on a great show! When he opened once with "Solamon" (sp?) with all the kettle drums, harp, wood winds and everything years ago, (I counted something like 17 pieces) I'm getting goose bumps right now remembering!

"Ole Skeeters Behind"


"Ole Skeeter and his new Bride packed our old Chevy and headed from Loreto to San Giroiorgo{South of San Juanicto on the pacific} oh so many years ago!!
Loaded with 5 Days of ice and Water we traversed from Kilometer 79 over a very rough Road,up and over the Mountains through San Ysidro to a small side road and finally our own Camping Spot on the BeachAll to ourselves!!
Catching so many Corvina, feeding the Doplhins from our Hands, vhecking out the swollen remains of a 40 Ft. Whale

The Sand was White, the Moon was rising as we lay in the Shallow water "Naked as Jaybirds" Listening to the many sounds of the ocean and Beach life Music to our Ears,stimulation to our Senses,making "Wild and Passoniate Love with "No Holds Barred"

1984 so many years ago, my behind is still red from the Sand!!!

It's all in the leverage....Guess you will have to plan a trip while one of us "Bad Baja Babes" (Paulina is a good teacher) are around to have a demonstration.....I'm almost 50 and I just learned (well, 2 summers ago, I'm not a beer drinker normally, although my Baja friends would tell you differently) I went out to the lake here at home with my 24yr. old son yesterday and opened my soda with a lighter, my son was outragged! "Mom!, where did you learn to do that?!", "Old Mom's can learn new tricks" I say......He just shook his head at me! :saint:

five days supply of ice ?????????
Did you use that for cooling the beer or fighting a certain gravity to regenerate?
I did something like that in France w/ my wife > 3 days on the beach.
I couldn't walk after the 3rd day as the salt was eating me up from below.
3 days without shover? Never again for the rest of my life.
But anyway, it was fun.

I know I haven't lived nearly enough, but...


I have 'mooned' the Sea of Cortez from the shores of Bahia de Concepcion...after spending some time on that 'Bahia', I can sure understand how it was named! :O:smug:



According to my clock...anytime is \'BAJA TIME\' & as Jimmy Buffett says,
\"It doesn\'t use numbers or moving hands It always just says now...\"

markitos > I assume you got no kids yet.
I do have a 25 year old boy > still singel as he is smart.
He flies from flower to flower (I just told him to make sure that no pollen are sticking on a one) and you won't belive: I never tought him a damn >>> he figured it out all on his own.
Notice: kids are generally smarter than the old guys.
That's the problem of every generation.
Have fun with the trying!

5 Days of ice!


At the Start of my Adventure on the Sea of Cortez, Loreto and the Pacifico,there was in Loreto and Ice Plant. This Ice Plant was an Antique in that it operated with Large Cannisters placed in a Vat surronded by circulating Salt Water. there were only 16 of these Cannisters so it was very important to get your ice, pack it into your Ice chest the day before fishing.
We had the Ice Man make the Ice real Hard, then we put it into a good Ice Chest, taped the opening and would not open it but once a Day, keeping another chest to operate with, this way we could catch as many as 105 Losters at a time ,have fun, and return to Loreto.whereby the Lobsters were frozen for future use.
If you will take Cardboard, place on the bottom of the Chest, then fill up any void spaces, you can keep more than 5 days and still have Ice.

Tequilla was much better than Beer at that time of my Life!!!, it being the Second most important thing in my Life."Dancing to the Music of the Waves' which ended up "Rolling in the Sand" with you Love was always "First'.

If you "Young Ladies" have never experienced an "Ole Texas cowboy" gliding you across the dance floor, in a "Waltz Across Texas with You"maybe you should take a Trip to the many "Dance halls' around Ft. Worth, Texas. You haven't lived til a Cowboy ask you to Dance to some of that good "Belly rubbing ,.Beer Drinking Western Music!!!

Those beautifull Ladies swoon after the first round on the Floor, then take your hand and lead you to the Parking Lot and Make Love to you!!!

Oh!! the Memories!!

longer than 5 days


If you really want to keep that ice for a long time take a large cooler and pack it with ice, air pockets are no bueno. Then slip it into a sleeping bag and zip it up. You would be amazed how long the ice lasts even in hot weather. Of course keep it out of the sun. The ice chest sweats inside the sleeping bag and the condensation keeps it really cool. This method works better than burying the ice chest. always chillin---fishin rich
