    Trip Report

    Does anyone know why all the TV cameras and reporters were hanging out by the Police station? Another major drug bust?

    Labor Day Roll Call.....

    So sorry to hear about Dave. What a great guy and one of those people who truly helped Penasco grow, a pioneer ahead of his time. While it's nice to talk about "unleashing" oneself from your daily grind, for many that is/was not an option due to work demands... And for many years his was the...

    Labor Day Roll Call.....

    Think they are stocking up on raw meat, eggs, cheese and other dairy?

    Labor Day Roll Call.....

    Hah, I was thinking about how I messed that up as I was falling asleep. Thanks for the correction.

    Labor Day Roll Call.....

    One more...this is a handy little Casa Weez weather rapid-fire blast that shows exact current conditions in an easy-to-read format for quick viewing. I'm now obsessed with watching that wind needle go up and down by the minute...

    Labor Day Roll Call.....

    Oh for Chrissake, both of those things I just posted were related. The Casa Weez site is in Playa Encanto, past Mayan Palace, and the website they list as their own is the same as the Sat/Net internet provider link I posted! The weather station coordinates are listed in the bottom right hand...

    Labor Day Roll Call.....

    I can't figure out right now how to find its exactly location--or maybe he hid it since--but I recall the Casa Weez station being located past Las Conchas, going towards Mayan Palace, and it's very close to the shore. That's why his readings always come in a little cooler than the airport...

    Labor Day Roll Call.....

    Yup, that's the one I researched. Was going to do the local Sat/Net guy the last time I stayed in Las Conchas (where he just charges you for the temporary password to log onto his wifi broadcast) but for some reason the signal wasn't showing up very well inside the house we stayed at. Lately...

    Ideas for getting from PP to Phx 9/29?

    I did this ride a few years back--not sure if it was thru Nena's or Transportes Superior, as I've used both--but it was no problem crossing the border. I was glad I wasn't carrying TOO much luggage, as I was not expecting to carry it over, but the driver was waiting just after the Mexico side...

    Labor Day Roll Call.....

    I'm going the following weekend, the 9th-12th, hoping some miracle cooling spell will fall over the area. Gotten lucky before! BTW, GV Jack, what were you using for internet? One of those prepaid cards?

    Manny's has closed.......

    yeah, may want to start a new thread for that special. if a person is unfamiliar to forums (and you always want to assume your reader is not as web savvy as yourself), chances are they're only going to read the first entry or page.

    Best Seafood Resterant in Rocky Point

    Have to agree on Flavios. Have had too many bad experiences there, which sucks because I used to swear by the place. Nothing scary, although having shrimp cocktail that was almost completely frozen in the bottom half was kind of disturbing. What is the name of the street TerraMar is on? I'm...

    Navy checking boats

    And yet they are turning a blind eye to the unlicensed, clam-scraping Mazatlan mob that is raping the reefs outside of Cholla Bay, leaving inexperienced young divers dead in their wake. Someone must be greasing those wheels.

    Romantic or cool restaurant?

    How is the dinner there? We've only really had breakfast at Puesta del Sol.

    Penasco Del Sol

    Not sure how the Chapter 11 process works for land in Mexico, but I have some friends in the press here in town that could make a public request for information for all the details, unless someone knows an easier way to get that info directly online.

    Penasco Del Sol

    Sorry, I meant the highest tide overall, but just considering the highest yearly tide, not taking into account odd solar/lunar alignments, like some of those recent videos that showed the water coming well up into the higher levels of JJ's patio. ;)

    Penasco Del Sol

    Wow, had no idea they owned that. I guess there's no real ownership of the beach area from the edge of PDS to Las Gaviotas, is there? Even though they created that "beach" on their own, it is still owned by the public, right? How far up from average high tide can ownership start?

    Penasco Del Sol

    The last time we stayed there, it was on her designated ground suite a few doors down from the pool, and yeah, they had a wedding procession right outside our patio, in that awkward sandy area overlooking the ocean. We watched for a while, felt odd, came inside, watched through the sliding glass...
