    San Diego to Rocky Point

    I f you like old vehicles watch along rt 4 . There are several junkyards with interesting old pickup trucks. Just watch for the speed bumps in the little towns !! That stretch beaks u the trip nicely but does not slow you down much.

    San Diego to Rocky Point

    I take Rt 5 through Mexicali to Rt 4 to Rt 40 at Coahuila city. Then 40 south to get on the Costal highway. Only tricky spot is where 4 ends at Coahuila. Go left over the tracks pass the OXXO on the left side and end up at the T on 40. Rt 4 is a little picturesque through several small ejido...

    Very comprehensive map of Roads in Sonora.

    Here's a link to the PDF, the site it came from has similar maps for all of Mexico. Just erase the Sonora.pdf. I'd love to travel some of those roads. Here's the Sonora Map http://www.sct.gob.mx/fileadmin/DireccionesGrales/DGP/Atlas/Cartografia-2014/Sonora.pdf

    Forget Real Estate in Rocky Point

    If you think about it that beach property, by and large, historically was worthless to Mexicans. the few towns that sprung on the coast were fishing related and the local folk sure did not want to live out there in the dunes with all that wind and sand. I think they were surprised when US folk...

    Robberies are increasing now thanks to the Mayor of Puerto Penasco.

    OK so 10x is tooo much. All of the beach properties represent a pretty big employer when you consider cleaning, maintenance and construction plus supplies and materials bought locally. the concrete pumper is doing real well in Las conchas. Maybe he is the Mayor's cousin. Maybe those folks could...

    Anyone catching fish in Penasco?

    Sounds like the pier has one good use. Glad they are not stopping entry.

    Robberies are increasing now thanks to the Mayor of Puerto Penasco.

    Another issue related to this problem is that non citizens are prohibited from participating in or interfering with the government and the election process. So ya gotta watch what you do and say.

    ""Dirt sez: One more thought: I know in Miramar we faithfully pay city property taxes with little or no support from the city. "" In reality if the city taxes were 10 times what they are now it would not be a significant burden to the vacation homes, only to the little guys in the barrios. The...

    The NY Times report you reference is almost 20 years old. It appears that bank trusts were not issued if it was a lease. Is there anything new to tell about this situation??

    An alarm is helpful but not a magic bullet. I was robbed one time, the thieves came into the house and ripped the alarm control box off the wall which stopped the siren. From a neighbor it took only a few seconds. Good idea to hide the control panel...

    Cholla Bay Broke My Heart

    On the Atlantic side communities commonly control parking near and adjacent to the beach. Passages were provided but no nearby parking, You can be on the beach if you can get there. We used to get someone to drop us off. Stayed on the Hampton Bay beach for several days and nights, much to the...
