    Puerto Penasco Home Port

    Wow that's one of the funniest things I've heard... Because all the major cruise lines are super concerned about what's going on at the jetty. I bet they're just lined up and soooo anxious to get those huge ships anchored in Penasco!

    JJ's Cantina burned down

    What I love about Mexico is that an issue like this is just business as usual. In the states, the place would probably be shut down for weeks until they were allowed to open again. Also reminds me of a story from the late 90's in Rocky Point... Every time we would go down there, Manny's seem...

    Going back for first time in 7 years

    Glad you came back! Capone's is always a good choice in that area, but you're looking at close to American prices. Always a good crowd though...

    BoomerFest Update

    Most acts will make the promoter pay to fly them out as well, so I doubt they would show up and then bail. If this is not happening, we'll know very soon. Somebody should keep tabs on which performers have it listed on their websites, and then track if it disappears.

    New Wind Turbine in Town

    WOW!!! Are you doing a lot of marketing, or were you just down there most of the time?

    New Wind Turbine in Town

    A great spot... Whenever we stay on Sandy Beach we stop there for beer and it's always randomly really windy right at that gas station. Never nearly as bad once we get to the resorts (or so it seems)

    Puerto Penasco Home Port

    According to this, about 25 out of 281. That has to be really weird living or staying there. http://www.insidetucsonbusiness.com/news/top_stories/unfinished-business-rocky-point-s-natural-beauty-invaded-by-sea/article_65ac6e1e-484a-11e1-8fce-001871e3ce6c.html

    Puerto Penasco Home Port

    A more accurate depiction of what Esmeralda has looked like for the last 6 years. Almost as bad as that other tower at the end of Las Conchas.

    Keys

    Don't want to hijack this thread, but it reminds me of a story from a long time ago... I was 18 and in RP with a group of about 5 friends. We were driving on the main road crossing the railroad tracks, when out of nowhere car hit us trying to make a left from where there was a fruit stand. The...

    Puerto Penasco Home Port

    Unfortunately Esmeralda, much like the Cruise Port, is at a stand still and roughly 10% complete.

    Snorkeling near Las Palomas?

    Honestly I don't know if I've ever been down in July... I was in Las Conchas for Labor Day last year and they were definitely out

    Snorkeling near Las Palomas?

    Be careful and try to go out with some sort of flag or identifier while you're in the water. The banana boat drivers whip up and down that area.

    Public access to sandy beach?

    If I recall, you can park anywhere near the end of calle 13 and there is public access on the northern edge of Penasco Del Sol hotel... It's been a few years since I've been over there though.

    Latitude Survey

    If you're coming from the Mirador head towards the fish market (malecon). It will be on your left side just after a weird 3 way intersection right before you get into the fish market area. Big, bright, 2 story building. Can't miss it.

    Puerto Penasco Home Port

    Well at least that project appears to have a cruise line funding it. Much better than this "If you build it, they will come" plan going on in RP. I mean, I doubt the major cruise lines are lining up waiting for this jetty to be completed.

    USA World Cup

    Not true at all. The US played an open style to try to get goals. Inevitably this will lead to a ton of shots when playing against a team that is more talented. The other option was to put 10 players behind the ball will the goal of just trying to stop them from scoring. Of course then people...

    BoomerFest Update

    It looks like this might actually happen, and if some of these bands (RCPM) actually play, it could be fun. I don't think they would have just thrown Roger's name out there if they didn't have real discussions? FWIW, Jefferson Starship actually lists it on their website, most of the others...

    Of course there would be half finished buildings in the background

    Morning blend with Mexican Moonshine!

    We were in Tucson this weekend visiting friends and had a chance too see Roger at Agustin Kitchen. Roger was great as usual, and it was awesome to see him play since we're going to miss Circus Mexicus for the first time in years. We also got the chance to meet Congressman Ron Barber who was...
