Bahia san Luis Gonzaga

This has become a regular May trip usually 10-20 guys meeting up or caravan down. For me the drive is about 8 hours. What used to be 60 miles of dirt has been diminished to about 1 mile at the final turn off.



I invited my dad to go down to Baja. He flew out from Minnesota and we took off in the middle of the night to meet a few others at Dennys in Calexico to run down together. My dad suffered his first heart attack 2 years younger than I am now and has had a couple more heart attacks and a stroke. He is 77 and still kicking ass I had a great time with him. I got to hear stories from jungle warfare training in Panama in the 60s to elk hunts in Idaho. He was even gored in the thigh by a big buck 10 years ago. We reminisced about all the fishing and hunting trips we have shared together and I even heard him drop a few F bombs for the first time ever. We battled some wind and it got a little hot at times, we managed to catch some good fish and ate fish every day there.  I'd go back tomorrow if I could. Whale sharks were every where Great bunch of guys to hang out with as usual. Gracias a Dios!

Awesome! looks like fun.

That is so awesome.  Thanks for sharing the slide show! 

Baja has been on my bucket list for a long while.  When I built my Yak-A-Haul-it trailer, Baja washboard roads were highly considered during fabrication.   

Thanks for the video. Baja is one of my favorite places. I spent years down there all added up. It feeds the soul like no place else.

Way cool!
It's really cool that your dad and you got to enjoy this together...

Looked it up last night - looks like a great place to go. Too bad that the road is paved all the way now as it will probably tempt a lot more people to go there, but maybe the relative lack of amenities will discourage the average tourist for awhile.
