Of general Nomad interest, I am also receiving Spot location pings from TMW (Tom) as he is traveling with other Nomads (John and Rudy). So Far they
have been to Gonzaga Bay, Coco's Corner, L.A. Bay, The Green Door road to just beyond the La Bocana/San Pedro canyon junction (then turned back
north), BahÃa Las Animas (last night), Pancho's place at San Rafael, and now heading south from Piedra Blanca on the Guillermo Prieto shortcut road
(maybe going to Mission Santa Gertrudis or Vizcaino or San Ignacio?).

So, Graham ist in Bahia el Refugio - anyone know whether his Playa has a name?
If not, why don't we name a few places after Graham?
Like this beach
Playa Mac?
Playa Graham? ("Playa Kre Em" after the Mexicans adopt it)
