Oh, please post them, if you can, and if you can't, let me know and maybe my husband could scan them for you! I'm sure those old photos are amazing!

New York to Rocky Point! WOW, what a change! How long were you in the City?

I sure did, Roberto, and I am really happy that I posted the question! Good to hear from another full timer, too, so thanks for your reply! I really had no idea there were so many of you and hope to meet you all one day soon! Tell me, does the forum host regular (like quarterly) get-togethers...

Thanks El Gato! Sounds like you and your sweetie are living the good life in PP! Congrats on your full time move! That's fantastic! And 1848? Wow, that is some history! I'd love to see some photo from those days if you have any! We hear you about the night driving as our plans have always...

If you only had 5 meals left, where would you go? Can't wait to hear all about everyone's faves!

Thanks for the tip/info, RPR! We're working out the details now and hope to be down soon...and will most definitely enjoy our trip! Thanks again and happy Friday!

Thanks rocktptjoe! WOW, since '85 huh? I think my first trip was in '87 (college tent camping on the beach, sand fleas and all...YECH). Rocky Point certainly has changed over the years, hasn't it, but then again, we have, too! Good to know about those bacon wrapped shrimp. Heard about Costa...

Thanks Costa! Like those before you, I'd like to thank you for both your time and your insight....really, really helpful! The fact that you are and continue to be comfortable traveling there with your children (and twins, too!) speaks volumes and you really hit the nail on the head with the...

Thx RPR! Nice to see more good news about RP, but have mixed feelings about how quiet things are. It's nice to have the place to yourself, but like everyone else, I worry about the local businesses. Avocado Surprise @Mary's sounds yum and we'll be sure to add the hot dogs at "El Jefe" to our...

And now, a word from our sponsor ;-). Thanks Rhino! I really do appreciate it and will look you up if we need accomodations. PM me the details if you'd like so I can have on hand for future reference. Thanks again and have a great day!

Hiya Jim! At the risk of sounding repetitive, THANK YOU for sharing your thoughts *and* your insight! Another long time visitor who is now a resident! That's great to hear and the fact that you have a family there also provides a unique perspective. In addition to those who are frequent...

Hi Ladyjeeper! I know this is starting to get a bit repetitive, but THANK YOU for your time and your insight, especially in light of your upcoming surgery (which I know will go well)! As a long time PP visitor/resident, I sincerely appreciate your insight along with all of the other good...

Thanks for your comments, el jimador! Appreciate your insight as well! As for us, we don't plan to stay locked up either (what fun would *that* be) and are happy to hear your experience has been a good one! Like you, we also want to support the local economy and are hoping to make another visit...

Such a beautiful and empty beach, azdiva...wish it were closer and thanks for posting your pics!

Thank for your reply, Russ! Really appreciate your time and your questions. As for us, we usually stay at Penasco del Sol, but have also stayed at a friend's place (the sand shack, we call it) in Cholla Bay, and, many moons ago, camped on Sandy Beach. For this trip, we are considering PdS...

Thanks azdiva! We aren't at all concerned about strength in numbers in terms of gringos as we really enjoy getting to know the locals, but do wish that there were more people visiting for the sake of the local economy (whatever their ethnicity or nationality). And that's terrible news about...

Thanks Terry! Sounds good to us and everything you said is usually what we do! We have been down several time over the last 3 years, but sadly, our last visit was in Jan 10, so it really is time! We miss it and are looking forward to a low key visit to our favorite beach town!

Thanks for your reply, Jerry! And, for the record, no cranky pants here, just someone with an itch for the beach. No interest in taking over the narcos territory either, unless he's blocking my view of the ocean ; - ). And thanks for the warning about the Bacon Wrapped Shrimp, we'll be sure to...

Thanks for your reply, Miramar! Could not agree with you more there. We really do enjoy our time in RP/PP and want to support the local economy as much as we can and would like others to do the same. This forum is a great way for people to stay informed as to what is going on down there and make...

and congrats on quitting smoking! it's a really tough thing to do, but you've got a great reason! and besides, I hear it is easier than quitting living ;-)
