If it's in the beach area, I heard some rumors last year about dredging part of the shore line to allow water to stay closer in at low tide.

Water trucks in Cholla were getting filled today as I came in. I'll ask my water guy tomorrow about it.

Were the border waits less than usual for this Memorial Day coming back from Mexico? I looked a few times and it was under 2 hours according to the BP website.

Yuck, that looks like a 1 1/2- 2 hour wait.

At 9am Monday the wait is already 60 minutes, the CBP site is showing 5 lanes open. Glad I'm not going down until Wednesday.

For our Memorial Day vacations to RP, if we can't leave Phx before 7am on Friday we will try again Sat by 7am, even then there's still a 45-60 minute wait. I've done the hit the border on Fri at 4-6 pm ONCE and swore to never do it again because of the 3 hour wait. Same rule applies for going...

Turtles are dying there? Humm, that's from a 2015 post above.

We got pulled over for not stopping where there used to be a stop sign, he told us we should have seen the one across the intersection and that means you have to stop. I laughed, my wife laughed and the RP Policia laughed, he did let us go after asking for a cold water bottle we had in the ice...

Late June weather is a crap shoot, the last July 4th weekends I've been, there 8 out of 10 times, it was pretty hot during the day and warm at night with higher humidity levels. But way better than Late July-mid Sept. Flash back a few years ago at 8pm going into town it was 68 degrees and...

I wouldn't count on that, it's an antenna with a LNB module. You can buy another for $40-50 from Amazon, Craigslist. etc. I'm sure you could find one in RP.

Humm, I have T-Mobile (6GB per line with data stash), the last 2 times down this month, I was able to watch Dish anywhere from my laptop to my 42 inch TV via a HDMI cable and was getting 700k-1300K pretty steadily using my phone as a wi-fi hot spot. (looked like 720P resolution to me) There are...

I left Cholla today at 12:30PM on my way back to Phx. There was a ton of traffic coming down south today. Saw over 15 sets of Jetski's being towed, saw 4-5 sail boats and about 5 boats. If anyone expects to be in the water this weekend, Good Luck with very windy conditions, gusts to 40-50mph...

Coming down today (Wed) I saw a lot of RV's heading north The big difference with RP now vs the 90's is the tourism base has changed. In the 90's it had a big USA/Canada visitor base, now it has a larger Mexican visitor base. I would estimate during the 90's it was 60-70% visitors from the...

I withdrew some peso's at Banorte on Monday using a no fee US debit card from my US dollar account. When I was completing my ATM withdrawal there was a message saying that I will be receiving 17.98 peso's per 1 dollar. ( That didn't happen during my last Banorte ATM visit 4 weeks ago) Well...

We crossed at 3:30 this Sat. and only 4 cars in front of us. Mexican customs were checking every other car, we got the green light:).

JJ and Jerry are over the top sometimes but provide mucho infomation. Keep flowing the info. Thx

Unfortunately there are those who will prey on us trusting and (Rich Gringos) and most will nickel and dime you. I have a place in Cholla for 20+ years and have seen my share of getting hosed, even my local buddy, I've known all this time takes advantage of me some. I hear Villa is OK'ish, also...
