Long time coming, indeed. Hope to get it out in the next week or so. And man, anytime. It'd be great to visit and have a beer or three. Send me a message next time you're feeling frisky, amigo.

And a few more...

I know a lot of you reading this either live in California or have had an opportunity to have traveled there, so you've seen it. You know how amazing the landscape becomes right outside of the city. The concept blew my mind. I mean you drive 5 straight hours of bumper to bumper, six lane...

Last photo I took in Mexico. I think the last you heard from me I was getting the 'ol girl patched up as good as possible in Rosario and headed for Southern California to continue the damage assessment... So that's where we'll start back off. Remind yourself of the fishing crew I met in...

Alright. Where were we? Right, just about to cross back over into the land of milk and honey. Let's go, then. And just so you know, this 15 month delay was on purpose, I'm part of a very sophisticated memory-testing experiment. Glad to have you along...

Eh, not as adventurous as you might think. The old girl functioned quite nicely actually. Legitimate problems were few and far between. A fuel pump in Oregon, a thermostat near Lassen Nat'l Park and the rest was gravy. As I'm sure you know, even though that thing lives in the slow lane, it's...

Amazing photos! How tall are the waterfalls?! They look to be 40-50m! Thanks for sharing.

I was about a day's drive away from the Sates but just couldn't leave Mexico yet - decided to stop in Rosario for a couple days - eat some food, check out the beaches and address a couple cruiser-related things before I got back to the land of the free. Limped the Cruiser into El Rosario that...

This is mostly pulled from memory, and it happened only a few months ago. I sent some quick emails to my friends and family - some of those are pieced in here, too. I think I was purposely impressionable as well. And thanks for reading! I had a Hell of a time and passing the stories along...

Here are some more of the ruins, etc.

We drove up from Conejo to Loreto - crashed there for a night - then on to a remote surf beach called Punta Rosailita - cold Pacific winds made for good sleeping on top of the cruiser weather - met some folks who've spent the last 30 years trekking backcountry Baja and learned and shared and...

Dropped Sarah off at the airport and turned around and headed back to Los Barriles. I said my goodbyes to Paco and his family and headed back North. At this point I was still planning to take the La Paz ferry to Topo - but later that day even, my mind had changed. A friend I was planning to...

Oh yeah - looks like I broke one of my own rules - told a fish story w/o posting a fish picture...here's to all that. As to my route - the story has just now reached the southern tip of Baja -we'll worry about CA when we get there. Of course there are a million amazing things to see, but...

Moving along. My girlfriend got in touch with me with a surprise for the birthday - she was flying into Cabo San Lucas in a couple days - I was supposed to meet her at the airport around 13:30 on Friday - keep that little detail in mind, it'll come in handy later on. OK. I was really looking...

Loreto was left as I found it, and I, appropriately, had changed a small amount by the time I left. A late night conversation with my next-door neighbors at the hotel served to broaden my mind and sharpen my convictions. Two older men, Mexican-Americans, who had managed to not miss even a...

Allow me to apologize for the hiatus - not only am I from a generation forced to do very little work on account of having almost anything we could possibly want being handed to us, but my mind has also grown accustomed to this mess - and forcing myself away from the pre-meditated distractions is...

We'll start this one with a picture. I woke up in the mountains and intended to sleep by the Sea of Cortez, by way of the Pacific Ocean. Long day ahead of me. Better get going. By now I was beginning to learn how things were laid out in Baja - small towns were placed every 20 or so...

Haven't found the time to write again yet and I will be out of town for the weekend - so here are a few more pictures and maybe a short video - if I can figure that out. Thanks for the compliments and thanks for reading. Video is not happening right now - I'll put more...

Plans for the day were to reach a small ranch near the pueblo of Camalú and base there for a couple days while I explored the San Pedro Mártir National Parque. The roads between Ensenada and Meling Ranch looked like this: Unbelievable. The colors down here are full of life - the...

"The first condition to understanding a foreign country is to smell it." - No idea of who's quoted saying that, but it's true. Passed into Tijuana with two, no three things in mind - needed to (1) stop at the border and get square with the Immigration folks, (2) locate a cash machine and (3)...
