Possible missing American Kayaker- Please Help
Please help get out the word.
I'm contacting you because I am trying to get word out and find my boyfriend. We were down in Loreto last week kayaking and when I flew out of Loreto
on Friday, January 18th he told me he was going down to Agua Verde alone to camp and kayak for the weekend. He told me he would check in on Monday,
January 21st in the morning or early afternoon and if I didn't hear from him that something could be wrong. HIs plan was to be in cellphone service,
today, Tuesday January 22nd so that he could work via phone and internet. I am concerned because he usually sticks to a plan and he is a beginner
kayaker. If you have any contacts in Agua Verde that would be extremely helpful. Please forward this to anyone you think could get word to or from
Agua Verde or has the ability to check on him.
He is in a 1986 Brown Volkswagen Westfalia with four wheel drive, kayak racks, and two kayaks on top. He is tall, about 6.1 or so with a shaved head,
beard, and green eyes. His beard will be slightly shorter than this picture because he cut it down last week.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with questions.

Good luck Drea. I'm sure there are some Nomads in the area that will be of assistance.

Picture of Bob
Here is a picture of Bob and I from last week when we were down there. His beard might be slightly shorter because he trimmed it soon after this
picture.

Thank you for everyone's help. Bob is safe and on his way to Loreto. So sorry to put out the panic but I would rather be safe than sorry. Thank you
and sorry for the worry.

Better safe than sorry. Glad to hear that Bob is alive.

So very happy it was a false alarm! 
And Drea, so glad you put out the word right away and did not delay. That was a very good thing.

A most joyous ending which has morphed into a most joyful relief as humor.

He knows that, but it's the thought that counts.
