    You Won't Like Mexico When It's Mad

    Jerry, I read the article when it came out on Politico too. I happen not to be a Trump supporter, but the article is basically an opinion piece, not hard news. Opinions are like (put your favorite generic body part here) everyone has one. Although it is possible the things in the article can...

    Building Boom?

    I primarily do healthcare related research and yes, the number of assisted living facilities constructed in Mexico targeted at Americans and Canadians has gone from 1 in 2010, to nearly 50 in 2016..however (when it comes to Mexico it seems there is always a "however" which in some ways is the...

    I have always said the Stop Signs in Mexico are more of a suggestion than a rule

    Road south to Caborca is unsafe!

    I certainly don't want to seem an apologist representing Mexico, but... I live in Anthem and my wife just had to get an alignment on her car due to pot holes on I-17 between Anthem and the Carefree Hwy. The US has a per capital GDP that is 5 times that of Mexico so my expectations (or at least...

    Coconut palms on RP beaches?

    My wife works for a commercial palm tree nursery (Pacific Palms) in Phoenix. According to the owners the very easiest palm to grow is a Med Fan (Mediterranean Fan Palm). They will withstand heat, cold, and almost any kind of soil that has drainage. As someone mentioned above, never say never...

    The Elephant in the Room...THE WALL

    Here is reality...If we (America's) really did not want anyone to cross the border we could have it come to a near perfect stop any time we chose to. I was stationed near the Czech border before the fall of the Berlin wall. The Russians put up a simple fence with guard towers every hundred...

    Tekila bar

    Even though we have been coming to RP since 1980 I would still consider oursels more tourists than "semi-resients". The means we tend to hang out atbplaces like Wrecked a BooBar. Due to business at home we hadn't been down RP since May. We found out that our favorite bar tender from BooBar had...

    Carvin Jones

    Like most people with an affinity to Rocky Point we love seeing Roger Clyne when he is in RP (or anywhere else for that matter. We had a great time visiting with him at a tequila tasting awhile back). However, if you are into fantastic guitar players and are going to be in RP for New Years we...

    New Years Eve

    Just as an FYI. We contacted the folks at Wrecked and made reservations. It's $50 US per person for all you can drink and some food. Live entertainment etc. We were told they are almost sold out and that we needed to stop by and pay by 1:00 pm in the 31st or they would be given to those on the...

    Ramons, Casa de Capitan, Mary's, Rosy's, Tacos Poblano

    Our first trip to RP was in 1984. Our extended family owns a cabin (to call it a house would be pretty generous) in Cholla Bay but for many years we have only stayed at various places on Sandy Beach. I would never call myself an "expert" on RP and we definitely are far more tourists than...

    New Years Eve

    CAmping?

    We have been going down to RP since the early 80's and remember the "good ol' days" of camping on Sandy Beach. Our version of "camping" has changed, now it means sitting on the balcony of a condo looking at the ocean...anyway.. I have a co-worker who asked if there was a place that they could...

    Margarita recipe argument thread

    Only because it's 4 in the morning and I am sick and can't sleep I'll add some "fuel to the fire" by suggesting this. Assuming you use silver tequila, most people cannot taste the difference between and expensive tequila and an inexpensively priced tequila in a margarita, with a couple of...

    Best place to purchase alcohol

    In case anyone is looking (except for those in congress who outlawed it) for almond tequile (almandrado) you can get it at either Bevmo or Total Wine. it's about $20 or so a bottle. I am trying to remember, but there MAY be some version of it available at the Tequila Factory in RP. I know they...

    Time for a new Joke Thread

    One of my favorites all time... A penguin was driving his car through town one day when suddenly it started buch and shake wildly, then the engine died. Luckily just as the car started to slow the penguin looked to his left and there was a repair shop so he coasted in. "Wassup" asked the...

    5 Myths about Mexico

    I have to spend a lot of time studying global markets and opportunities and we fortunately have some great economists that work for us. Ask any US based global company and you will find that 100% of them see Mexico as a huge potential market for US based goods and services due to the growing...

    Semana Santa = CRAZY

    We have been going to RP since 1980 fairly regularly (4 to 5 times a year). Our extended family owns a small house in Cholla Bay but now we usually stay on Sandy Beach. Somehow in all this time we have never been to RP during Semana Santa and after this past weekend I know why. I have never seen...
