Baja Adventure April 2015
Better late than never, I guess. The wind was unbearable this year. My last night in a canyon the wind hit 30+mph. So, not as many pics as I would
usually take.
Cardon flowers.
Yellow-footed gull.
Urinated on by a perro.
Splashing in Calamajue Canyon.
Camp at Bahia San Rafael.
Pictographs.
Senita, lagoon, Bahia San Rafael.
Rocky beach.
Another camp at Bahia San Rafael. As a buddy told me, "you can't have enough shade in the desert."
Grouper. It's what's for dinner.
What do they call a dead rabbit alongside the road?
Answer: A TV dinner. I kept telling this bird I wasn't dead yet.
Red volcano sponge.

Looks like you like it desolate! Thanks for taking us along. You have a cool camp set up with solar and shade. Nice photos. Looks like some fine
hiking.
Gracias.

Not too many more. Let me go through the folders and see what I can find. These were what I already had up at Flickr.

I always tell people not to go. Corrupt, military check-points with armed teenagers, the bugs, snakes, scorpions, rabid coyotes, lots of cactus
spines, it's always unbearably hot, you can't drink the water, drug runners, the roads suck, desolate, and lonely.
That way it leaves more room for me.
