Well at 1020 Sat am about a 1/2 mile line, but moving along steadily. Will post time when I get thru

Looks like RP officials are projecting 150,000 party animals (or even normal folk) will visit over the next few weeks. (per RP360 article) Since SB started this past weekend, How's the influx looking to those in RP now? I'm coming down on Saturday for a week and will report what I have seen...

There are those who will tear up the beach, I only leave a gentle tire track to mark my journey. :cool:

In Cholla Bay my water front neighbor has planted a few different types of palm trees and other trees. His Mexican fan palms when small do fine, a soon as they grow up over his block wall they really struggle. During the summer time they really struggle from the heat and constant wind from the...

Good to hear some good news about SBR. Hopefully it's true. Maybe all those who are owed $$ will get paid and all the units will get finished, Now onto Casa Blanca to hopefully get finished.

Yeah I know, I really miss riding the beach all the way to the Mayan Palace for a day trip, I know, sooo long ago.

Thanks Russ, I enjoyed seeing some of the names at the end of it, that brought back some good memories of RP, when we first started going down in the 80's. One of them was Betty Munro who was good friends with my wife's Gran parents, they had cabin #7 for awhile in Cholla, they started going...

Cruise Port and Amusement park = Wally World? Or is that Legend City?

Pretty much, locally as you said, every time I tried to ride to the estuary at far end of LC, the LC security harassed us. Stopped going 10 years ago. Comp Hill area, Condo's north of the Cholla road and areas around Playa Bonita are places to ride ATV's and off road vehicles. Used to be able...

There are so many pipe dream projects in Mexico (and many other places) that fail soon after the concept stage. Or get started only to fail after the investor $$ evaporate or poor planning and follow through. All the unfinished projects from large to small houses, litter the landscape all...

Last time I met with SBR's, Ray Taylor (10 years ago) he showed me the master plan for Sandy Beach and Cholla Bay. After 10 years it doesn't look anything like this, they did start the channel, but ended up using the 200 feet they dredged out for a water source to water the road down, but it's...

Just a lot of jockeying going on between USA and Mexico, IMHO. Until the day comes when there is a local family living in my Cholla house, I won't worry about it. I try not to listen to the Orange ones bluster, but it makes for insane late night comedy. It's pretty much all un-wanted noise...

I'll ask my local buddies if they ever catch them when I'm down next month.

JJ, If you order fish and chips in South Africa it will usually be Hake. Pretty tasty white fish. Hake tastes like similar to Cod, but all the Hake fillets I ate in South Africa last month, were smaller than any of the cod fillets I've eaten in the USA (if it was Cod)

Here is a link to what a Mexican border patrol agents deals with at the border with Guatemala. http://www.bbc.com/news/in-pictures-38717786 Apparently Mexico is trying to do something about their southern border, but doesn't have the billions of $$ to throw at like the USA. As long as there is...

Landshark, It you start from the forum page you will see the latest 5 posts on the right, similar to the recent activity page. I miss the recent activity page like you, but this works fine for me.

I and many others here feel that RP is currently pretty safe, so enjoy the trip. I was making jest of what happened in 2013. But it scared a few folks who moved out of RP, some cartel and Americans. Dec. 2013 there was a shoot-out at the Bella between Cartel lieutenants and the Mexican...

Real quiet as long as no Mexican helo/gunships are in the area.;) But it is a great resort.

We have seen Bobby Unser 3-4 times in RP. Close to 30 years ago, when I first started going down. We ran into him at La Cuerva 2-3 times. We were down with my father-in law who is an ex midget/sprint car guy who raced against the 3 Unser brothers and other ledgends back in the early 50's at the...

+1 on Russ's comment, On Monday, Pres. Day there will be a a lot of people coming back. Leave before 9 am, earlier is better and the line will be OK.
