TIME TO MOVE TO BAJA SUR


Mi Amigos and Nomads. Now is the time to think about moving to Baja for a couple of years.

Especially if your Income is from Investments,
I think that in the next few years we are going to have some Tuff times. So Count your Pesos and think about taking it easy for a couple of years until things get started back to better times.

I made my move at I think a good time and it worked out Great. We need to let the "Bad" people do their thing and we can relax on the Beach in Baja.

I know that you can find some real good deals all over Baja Sur and if you need to go back and forth La Paz is an excellent place to live,.

No David I will stay in Texas, I was referring to my move in 1983.

At my age I can weather the Storm from Here.

But things are going to get bad the next couple of years as they did in 82.

Why fight it? Move to a Cheaper living and wait it out.

Skeet, please stop advertising La Paz as a great place to live. This city is ugly, loud, dirty, full of smog, and we are very mean and agressive towards outsiders. Theres rattlesnakes everywhere, spiders, scorpions. Sewage everywhere, dogs are rabious and crazy and roam the streets bitting people. The beaches are full of trash, aguas malas everywhere, and sharks with lasers roam around looking for victims. Theres hoarhouses almost at every corner, drug abuse is rampant. Property values tumble.

So as you can see, nobody in their right mind, would want to come down and live in La Paz.

Hey! Let all the DOPERS go to Cabo. If you really want a good place to live. La Paz is Super. Good Cheap rents, good Airline Service, and not really many Americans/Canadians.

If i needed to go back to Back that is where i would go. I was fed up with LBJ and his EOA and paying Pimps $17,00o a year to Pimp in Oakland,
But that is Democrats for you.

Seriously things are going to get Tough here and I think that if you can do it with your Investments and keep Control you will be better advised to take a Couple of good years and go to Baja Sur, The people are Great, the services are Great,

I spent some time in La Paz back in the day, and there
are few places in Mex that have such a tranquil ambiance
as one of those red sunsets viewed from the Malecon.
Hanging out with some of the Characters from the Old
Marina. I remember a watering hole right in front
of the Old Marina, Molina something. The now defunct
Cardon trailer park. Camping out at Muertos Bay
near Los Planes, fun times indeed

Yeeeeeeeehaaaaaaawwwwwwwww! Skeet has figured it out! Tough times ahead! Time to batten down the hatches.

Next he will discover that fish stocks worldwide are down. Including the Sea of Cortez. Will wonders ever cease?

Ha,Ha Jesse,
You think it's bad in La Paz? Drive down to my hell hole of La Ribera!
New clients have taken over my R V Park, all my spaces are full of converted Cadillac Escalade Motorhomes, Blacked out window streched limo Suburban wannabes, demanding that I raise my prices, so that they can
launder more money. Hard to sleep at night as, you mentioned, the area is now full of rabid dogs with swine flu, roaming everywhere, I have to wear full body armour, just to go outside to pee on my cactus. I got bit 7 times last night by a 17 foot rattler, good thing I put antivenom on my morning tacos and tequila,or I would not be here writing this. all the canuckin mounties have left me high and dry for the frozen northern hinterlands,
I only have some hope that Osprey will somehow be able to swim through the raw sewage running 4 feet deep through our arroyo like streets, to bring me a rusty can of Coors Lite, as there is no more Pacifico to be had in Southern Baja. I just had to yell at my tenants If they did not quit playing that god afull frank sinatra music so loud I will be forced to lower their damn space rent, boy, I know how to make them toe the line! I will have to fire up my front end loader in the morning though, to push the 4 ton nightly acumulation of trash into the sea, can't hurt, theirs no more fish anyway, except man eating carp. Jesse, I could ramble on , but then I'd just be rambling on, It seems that only you and I know the real truth.
Good Gracias, reality is a stone cold b-tch. Oh, and could you send me a recipe on how to cook agua malas I have 12 tons in the freezers, and am at a loss on how to cook the damn things. wanna buy my chain of hoarhouses? Good prices, the new clients bring there own girls.
