Karl, 

Some days, I wish I were your German Shorthair Retriever.

When you get back, I need the fuel can and shovel holder for my Roof rack!

No big hurry.

RE: Baja Adventure Project starting in a few hours....

well Karl, I am not packed yet but my drive is only 300 miles north to meet you at the adventure beach
so I can sleep a little longer than you, pack up, have a beer (or two) and head north

lets see if we can sink your G

RE: Baja Adventure Project starting in a few hours....

Harald,

Wife and I are looking for a mid winter retreat in Jan, Feb, or Marz. We need sun and warmth!!

I do not want to drive through northern Mexico - too many issues - so we are not taking the G. But, would fly to Baja or elsewhere to meet up and to rent vehicle from you. What would be a good plan? We are short on vitamin D at the moment, so I may not be making any sense at all. 

TJ says that 14-25 Feb would be good, or other days too. Flexible.

Tschues,

Tom

Yes DUTCH,

our trip was a great sucess so far, Haral is still pushing on by himself but we have to back in LA by Sunday night.

First big achievement :

Patricia and I visited sucessful the confluence
of the 112W & xxN early yesterday.

Second one:

we found drove most of the route of our future Baja Expedition Adventure.

Had a great time doing it - difinately not for the faint hearted ones and not for the paint worrier

Back on the track tomorrow

RE: Baja Adventure Project starting in a few hours....

Karl,

I am looking at the Baja map:  how far south of Santa Rosealia is Guero Negro? Must be a small place.
