Some Baja Essentials
Merry Christmas Eve all. A random picture I took while packing for Baja shows a few Baja essentials. My favorite is the green licorice.

Don't need the spot. We can start a thread instead.

Bigger toys, over compensation?:
If my pharmacy and bank cooperate, I hope to be rolling before New Years.

That's funny Bob. Sometimes I feel like I pack like that. I really like my burro. Four shocks, a torsion bar, and 3500 lb. axle with electric brakes,
16" 10 ply tires and a 5500 lb. hitch. It tows like a dream, and is soft enough to haul eggs!
I once hauled all the framing and roofing for a 7 x 8 foot bodega to San Nicolas' concealed as a 48" tall "camper shell" on that trailer. (13 - 2x4
rafters and multiple layers of corrugated roofing and siding!) It was so top heavy that is when I added two shocks positioned perpendicular to the
line of travel.
My Landsailer weighs less than 100 lbs., the re-purposed lumber rack is heavier!. It should be a trouble-free load unlike when I put my small
Landsailer on top of my cab-over a couple years ago and tore down an electrical line at the fisherman's beach at La Bocana!!

Word that I had actually taken out a notoriously low #14 strand of Romex feeding the PORCH LIGHT on the pump house was a lot slower getting around!
The same dude who took my license and ran the abalone farm scam later sold me a tee shirt with the pocket logo printed on the right rear shoulder. I
looked at a medium and liked the shirt, he sold me a rolled-up mis-printed large. Quite a slick customer.
Quite a careless gringo!
