the quality of the rooms depends on how full they are. some of the remodeled suites, although the new design cramps more than 2 people if they are not a couple, were great ideas in theory. (that is, when you saw the pretty videos online.) ergonomically, in person, we kept asking ourselves--"did...

"Sparks said Textron holds a lien on three parcels of property owned by Hanson’s company: the 203-room hotel, 18 acres adjacent to it that was to be developed into a convention center and another 21 acres on the beach a short distance from the hotel." OK, so the empty lot they are referring to...

Nevermind, yes, it is, just read the caption.

Is this Penasco's Playa Hermosa? I know the name is probably very common... http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_5pw-UhfU748/SpLb1VPrKRI/AAAAAAAAE1I/j8G6PVVHWD4/s400/Mexico+%281%29.jpg

There are swinging doors that say "LOBBY," so it's got to be a hotel--which ones were open at the time? More than likely a beach-front one, I'm guessing. I don't know how many times La Roca has changed, but they never had room for such a restaurant, correct?

Can anyone ID that hotel/restaurant at the very end? And HOLY COW!!!! Did they just round up every mariachi in Sonora? I'm guessing that's the first time anyone had seen an actual film camera.

And that Penasco del Sol tide is shaaaaaaaallow and takes forever to recede. That whole beach right in front of del Sol is disgusting, whether it's the glass/firework-ridden sand or the giant cockroach-filled rocks that surround the hotel. If you're staying there, best keep to the hotel's...

So then I guess people should THANK them for blocking off their waste-infested shores, eh? Never felt better about my usual aversion to renting on Sandy Beach.

From this article I gather that they were trying to make a faux-private beach by placing rocks in the sand at the resorts on Sandy Beach. But does this article also accuse Profepa, Bonita Beach, Puerta Privada, Casa Blanca, Princesa, Bella Sirena, Sonoran Spa and Sonoran Sun of ALL dumping waste...

In another article from June it mentions his location, "Mr. Antojo," inside the Jett's Wildcat convenience store at Park and 6th, at the heart of the UA. Idiot should have kept his eye on the ball and stuck it out over the summer--that spot was a goldmine.

Did you hear if Penasco itself got a bit of rain or is it just trickling in from the higher elevations?

And always best to keep a "hands only" policy when at the strip clubs down there. Who knows where those mouths (and other orifices!) have been. :o

And if you DO follow some random people through Sonoyta, don't assume that they know what the proper speed limit in town is! Best bet is to take your time and follow the signs. I don't see too many speed traps when traveling mid-week, but expect to see them over the weekends for sure. Once you...

You "hand" some charges at the strip club, eh? Freudian slip? ;)

The ATM there gives dollars? I had no idea. The only one I knew of that gave USD was the ATM inside Max's Cafe, across from Penasco del Sol hotel. And the ATM at Max's has CRAZY fees, btw.

So, anyone of you full-timers want to comment on recent traffic flow on the Malecon?

I've seen them jump out of the water in San Carlos a few times but only once in Penasco, when we had a beach house in Las Conchas a few years back and our eyes were on the ocean most of the day.

Meaning that there's still members of the Romney extended family in Penasco who are also based in Casas Grandes?

In the words of Liz Lemon, "I want to go to there."
