BAJA NOMAD FORUMS online 10 YEARS!


One month and one year ago:

On August 1, 2002, BajaNomad (#1) aka Doug kicked off this new forum. Doug had an earlier forum on Escapists.com (I think it was)... but got the new style forum up and running 10 years ago. I registered on August 30, 2002 (#10). Random registered people that month (#2-#9) never posted or only a couple times and never came back.

A whole bunch who are still here registered that day or the next... Lizard Lips, Jack Swords, Mexray, Skeet, and Paulina were among them. BajaBus is #11, but I haven't seen Max around?

Baja Nomad Forums grew in membership slowly the first year, but in late 2003, when Amigos de Baja (bajanet.com, the busiest Baja message board) suddenly went off line, there was a need to find a new home for the gang of Baja lovers! Doug welcomed the Baja Amigos to make Baja Nomad their new home.

THANK YOU DOUG for keeping BajaNomad.com on line and a great place to read/ share/ view Baja California! Happy TEN YEARS!

When Amigos went away, Bajanomad was there
as a replacement, as it turns out bigger and
better. Gives us Baja myopics an avenue,
gracias Doug

All this earnest reminiscing put me in mind of how over the years so many threads on Nomads have gone the way of this lovely little celebratory tribute. Saludos Amigos e Amigas! Muchas Gracias Doug. For those who are not literate in Spanish, I here pay homage to my friends, both male and female and give a send a heartfelt Thank You to Doug, who started this mess.

Thanks Doug for running this site that provides such current information on Baja. With members in and about Baja there is little that happens in Baja that escapes our attention. And David, appreciate your bringing this to our attention.
