    Fiesta cruiser shipwrecked, tourist dies

    Nothing in Tucson either, it is quite odd. Shows you the residual effect of buying extra media time, i.e. the Sonoran billboards, newspaper and TV ads. You won't ever see any Jim Click scandal, for example, that guy pretty much keeps the ad departments in business, which often trump the...

    Malecon Construction Lasting Through March 2012

    The Public Works Director is quoted as saying the construction will last at least until March of 2012. Google Translate worked pretty well, but any other translations or recaps are more than welcome. http://defrente.com.mx/2011/11/avanza-un-15-por-ciento-la-pavimentacion-de-la-colonia-el-puerto/

    Parade Saturday, Nov. 20th

    What exactly is the holiday called? I know the normal Mexican Independence day is on Sept 16th... And Saturday is the 19th.

    Channel 11 Tucson Report on Puerto Penasco

    At 1:16 or so when they're filming from the highway, I hear Russ Black talking, either on one of his tours or they just tuned into Rocky Point Ramblings on the radio, because it also kind of sounds like Rosie laughing.

    Channel 11 Tucson Report on Puerto Penasco

    Too bad Channel 11 (and 18) news is being shut down in February, with the entire crew losing their jobs, minus the sales staff. The owner of KOLD 13 is taking over.

    Road Hazards in Penasco

    I was wondering about the Malecon, and if the flood damaged any work that was partially finished. Looks like Cholla Bay got hit pretty hard.

    Fiesta cruiser shipwrecked, tourist dies

    First off, I'm deeply sorry for your loss. I lost my father unexpectedly 3 years ago this week, and it still effects me. Regarding your question about the elderly, someone had earlier mentioned that this was an older-age club of some sorts going on this particular night, and that most of the...

    Ouch motor cycle accident

    These are two separate incidents, correct? One occurring in Gila Bend, AZ, the other in Sonoyta, just after the border, on a street named Benito Juarez? (I realize just about ever city in Mexico has one, similar to Washington or University.)

    2011 Biker Rally Updates

    Tucson sure got quite a bit this early morn until about noon, was wondering if Penasco did as well. Wonder if that will add up to an all-time high year for the usually-dry beach town.

    Don't forget the sunset cruise ship skeleton that will probably still be sitting on Hermosa Beach by Playa Bonita!
