Good site with logical information. Take a few minutes to go through it.

I know that there are many places in Mexico that are extremely dangerous....but looking at the US Travel Advisory for Baja it notes that the murder rate in Mexicali has climbed to 15.8/100,00...this is just slightly less than Chicago and much less that St. Louis, Detroit, New Orleans....I've been to all of these places safely. I think it is important to be careful....wherever you are.
Many people think I'm insane for spending so much time down here in Baja...until they visit.

Whenever I hear that rainy, chill wind blow. I think it may be time to head for Mexico. Tengo que obedecer mi corazon!

Cooler than San Felipe? Oh no no no :-) So hot up here my five dogs refuse to go outside to work :-)

Will be in San Felipe starting in October til I get run out by the authorities....
