    Best Condos on Sandy Beach to rent?

    Well, our free ride is over. For the past few years we have been able to stay at our friends condo at Las Palomas for virtually free...but, they just sold it. Now we have to go back to renting something. Prior to our freebe we stayed at a lot of different places (family "cabin" at...

    Interesting Crossing

    WOW..and to think... all I was trying to do is smuggle 5 pieces of Bacon. So I have learned a lot. 1. The customs folks probably read this forum and if they take the time to figure out who I am I will be on the watch list for sure so..no more bacon smuggling for me. 2. Even TALKING about Bacon...

    Interesting Crossing

    It was kind of interesting when we crossed the border yesterday. Let me preface this by saying that a few months ago I left some bacon in our cooler (we had brout the bacon with us down there) and got a long winded lecture about it by the guy who found it. That being said, yesterday as I drove...

    Army in RP

    We have been in Rocky Point for the week and noticed a really large number of soldier and also military boats every day. One day they were going door-to-door near the Mirador, another day we saw them at a storage place having someone open every storage unit. I asked around to some of our local...

    Friday, 20 April 2012

    We have been here since Weds and every day the weather has been PERFECT. Another cool thing to us is the number of people who are here in RP on a non-holiday weekend. It's looking like Rocky Point is back! (I know there are those of you who don't like crowds etc, and we were just commenting last...

    Water use report AZ & Sonora

    We have periodically (not sure why sometimes and sometimes not) seen Jiffy Pop at Walmart. You can also order it on line from Amazon if you really get desperate..:)

    Water use report AZ & Sonora

    I am way more a lurker than a poster but..Jiffy Pop is alive and well. Also, we are going tomorrow for another beautiful week in RP. If anyone else is going to be there drop us a note and maybe we can have a drink together..:)

    New Warnings

    I was stopped once years ago for going the wrong way down a one way street (which I did). I knew I may have a chance when the officer asked for my registration, then held it upside down to "read" it (really..no kidding). He then asked me "do jew want a teekit?". I replied No..he asked a couple...

    VIDEO: Jan Brewer Declares Herself Ambassador for Puerto Penasco/Sonora

    Absolutely uinreal. Maybe it was the tequila?? Anyway..if Gov Jan is a supporter of ANYTHING mexican other than her gardner I'm all for it. We came in late last night to Las Palomas and heard a number (ok a small number not a lot of people here) talking about this and it all seemed positive...

    Best Shrimp Cocktail (mexican style)

    I eat A LOT (as in too much) Mexican style shrimp cocktail when I go to RP cause my wife won't eat shrimp so I don't buy it for home. In my opinion..Flavio's really does have the best (As a note..this has nothing to do with the fact that Flavio's nephew works for me)

    Sea Monster caught in Desemboque

    I am sitting here imagining having 1 too many margaritas when a waiter comes and serve me the "catch of the day". Talk about not knowing whether to sh_t or go blind!

    Legal

    Stuart- If this thread is out of line just delete it... Is pot legal in Mexico? If so what are the "rules" as far as possession, purchase etc. I know it's always been "available" but to me has never been worth risking it.

    Updates in the Malecon

    We saw those guys the last time we were in RP about 2 weeks ago. I have been a musician my entire life (well, almost) and this was the very first time I had seen a tuba made of PVC pipe and a 5 gal bucket! The kids were really good. We were up in BooBar and the whole place was dancing to these...

    How to read bar codes..

    Not that anyone really wants a lesson in bar codes...but.. There are two type of bar codes on products you buy..the UPC code or in many cases an EAN code. THE EAN code is a 'superset' of the UPC code. You can tell the difference by the number of characters (numbers) below the bar code. UPC has...

    Don't Get Arrested In Penasco!!

    I am not trying to defend or condemn the cops in the video..but What I am curious about is the statement "I am very sad I have to post this..." Nope, you didn't HAVE to post it...you CHOSE to post it. When you add to that the 'editorial' heading of "Don't get arrested in Penasco" you are...

    Border wait time Sunday

    We arrived about 2:30 on Sunday and it took us about 2 hrs 45 mins to cross....BUT... I guess it should have made me mad or upset me but the idea that people are finally returning to RP somehow made it all worth it. The only thing that did bug me was I left some Oscar Meyer bacon in our cooler...
