    Penasco Sea Port is "Imminent," Casinos, Duty Free Stores a Must

    My statement was that it is possible to cut a channel if necessary to allow the ship to dock. I am not that familiar with this this project so I was pointing out that I am not aware of zoning issues or environmental restrictions by any government body that may restrict this.

    Penasco Sea Port is "Imminent," Casinos, Duty Free Stores a Must

    On Disney's private island in the Bahamas (Castaway Cay) they had to dig a large trench under the water for the ships to dock without the need for tenders. I assume the same could be done here (without considering any environmental restrictions). Check it out on Google earth, you can see the...

    RV Park occupancy during Mexican Independence Day Holiday

    I wouldn't think so. I believe that the week of Easter and the summer period are the busiest times for the Mexican tourists. Independence Day is usually celebrated by throwing a carne asada in your backyard or getting trashed at the local bar. I would expect that the next large group of RV's...

    5.2 off the coast of Penasco

    I felt it for sure. Thanks for posting this, my wife thought I was nuts, she didn't feel anything.

    Penasco Sea Port is "Imminent," Casinos, Duty Free Stores a Must

    Elvira's. I miss you. My wife and I used to drive from our home in Phoenix to Nogales just for lunch. The good news is that they do have a new location in the U.S. (near Tubac). As for the home port, I can only hope it turns out the way they say. What is very common in Mexico is for whomever is...

    Multiple People Shot in NYC this Morning

    If you visit the Mexican consulate before traveling to the U.S., they have official notices about the dangers of travel to the United States. The last notice I read (several years ago) mentioned Chicago, New Orleans, Miami and New York. I also read a similar notice issued by the State Department...

    Rocky Point Crime: Are we there yet?

    You bring about a good point. I consider it my responsibility to be informed, I search for information. Sadly, the Kardashian/Hilton/Lohan generation does not view things in the same light.

    Rocky Point Crime: Are we there yet?

    So the Vice President of U of A should advise his students to leave Tucson and/or abandon their country? Wow, I would love to see the reaction to that letter. I have lived in Mexico for 7 years and I support the tourism effort for Rocky Point. As much as I love living here, it does have certain...

    Mexico Issues Travel Warning For Chicago

    The ban of weapons for citizens has worked out well for Mexico, no doubt it will have the same effect in the U.S. (dripping with sarcasm)

    Rocky Point Crime: Are we there yet?

    I do agree with your comment that Mexican/Americans are usually who they refer to when they use the term U.S. Citizen. I have to take argument with the rest of your post. Too often we see people who have a similar attitude such as yours where they incorrectly assume because they do not have...

    Just found another video on the shooting in penasco.

    I understand your point and I want what is best for both countries. Sadly, I have experienced the violence first-hand. In my opinion, I think the two issues should be dealt with independently. I won't argue that the legalization of drugs would certainly resolve some problems but it will also...

    Just found another video on the shooting in penasco.

    My non-use of drugs, coffee, cigarettes is nothing more than a personal choice. It is not because I have any objection to them or any religious beliefs preventing their use. I do like to drink beer and mixed drinks (and yes, I do recognize that alcohol is a drug). My use of alcohol is a personal...

    Just found another video on the shooting in penasco.

    It is not overstated. I just moved here in January from "real" mexico. Ever dealt with the government in any real capacity? Ever been kidnapped? I continue to live here because I am married to a Mexican. My son is Mexican. I do believe in change and continue to want change for Mexico. The...

    Just found another video on the shooting in penasco.

    Last I checked most of the elected officials in Mexico are part of organized crime. I understand that there is the possibility that "some" people may change. To assume that these people will lay down their arms to pick up a uniform and work for living is just not based in reality. If you truly...

    Just found another video on the shooting in penasco.

    Please know that I am not down on Rocky Point, Sonora or even Mexico. Don't get me wrong, I am all for legalization, I just don't believe that legalization will stop the violence. I have never done drugs, smoked a cigarette or even drank a cup of coffee but I do believe in free choice and if...

    Just found another video on the shooting in penasco.

    Wonderful, so you run the employment agency placing these fine individuals to work for $1000 pesos per week. If employment opportunities were in such great supply down here we would not have so many willing to join the ranks. They recruit people (some by force) because there is little to no hope...
