    Laguna Del Mar Golf Course

    Played there first weekend in August - we were a three-some and the only players on the course until about our 16th hole or so - then 3 other people arrived. It was $30 per person - there were more people working then playing. The course is nice (only 9 holes which you play twice) - the staff...

    Builders in Penasco

    We used Fernando Curiel to design and build our house in Las Conchas. The house is approximately 2500 sq ft. and was finished in less than 9 months. I believe Fernando is now has some position for the City like Director of City Planning or some similar title and I don't know if he is still...

    Who serves the best hamburgers in Penasco?

    I had one at Ricky's Wings which was located off the Las Conchas shortcut road (i don't know the name of the road) - it was located across the Corona Distributor - it was pretty good - i don't know if it's still open though.

    Lighthouse is overpriced - however, you are not necessarily paying for the food there, rather the view.

    New Italian Restaurant Open

    I just noticed the restaraunt this weekend but didn't stop in. I didn't know if it was open yet. We did go to the old Portofino location that is now the No Sol Agua or something by that name. The food was pretty good.

    We were sitting on the beach and the wind was coming in from the North - it was incredibly dry and hot - all of a sudden, there was a switch and the wind came off the water from the South and the temp immediately dropped.

    shooting?

    I was down this weekend but had no idea anything like this had happened until I returned home and read it here on the forum. We did not go to Carnival, nor get anywhere near Calle 13. I don't fear going down to RP at all and go all the time, however, I would not attend public events or...

    Looking to do some remodeling and need some referrals

    I agree with the Muebles Coloniales recommendation - we bought a fridge there which has worked out great - The brand name was "Mabe" and i think its technically owned by Whirlpool or GE not sure which - there prices are good.

    Donald Trump, Jr.

    I agree with Wendell as much as I hate the line of thinking. I too am a property owner and agree that even if the economy rebounds - there will be no US buyers until the drug violence dies down. I try to stay positive to and continue to tell everyone how safe RP is and quiet - but its like you...

    Crossing Observations - 12/12/2010

    I came through on Sunday around 10:00 a.m. - drove right up to agent - took 1 minute - he recognized me from prior travel and i was on my way. I know it totally sucks for the locals that it is so dead in P.P. right now - but on a purely selfish standpoint, it is nice to leave anytime you want...

    Two men attacked and wounded on the Penasco Caborca Road

    What is the deal with all the bad guys down there driving Jeep Cherokees - the prior events earlier in the year all involved Jeep Cherokees - when we started going to RP after the earlier events we looked out for Jeeps and noticed that there seems to be an unnaturally high percentage of them...
