Wednesday here before Easter weekend. Traffic is picking up already and will build through Saturday and die down Sunday and dead prolly next week.
While the Alcalde's promise to have the road construction done has been partially fulfilled, BJ in front of Wally Marts complex is a sh*t hole. Ocana is to be avoided as it is bad.

City workers are out in force in the Mirador area anyway. Watering and blading the dirt streets over and over. Front end loaders loading trash from empty lots.

Front end loaders are pushing back the debris dumped in the empty lot off Fremont on Josefa. There were so many deliveries the stuff was right at the edge of the roadway, chunks of asphalt and concrete and dirt. Looke like a bombed out town. Have not checked the dump on the Caborca highway since Sunday but it was there in all it's glory at that time. Again stuff filling the land and recent loads dumped just on the edge of the roadway.

Much more activity preparing than for Spring Break. Someone mentioned to me that the Pres of Mexico might be visiting, if so that's prolly a big motivation to clean up.

After spending a few days in Santa Ana and Magdalena Penasco looks shabby to say the least.

The Caborca highway dump is heading more West now. It will be to the Las Conchas turn off if it's not stopped. What a mess it is. There is always a guy there picking up cardboard. Someone said $ 5.00 US, a ton. :eek:

There was a guy with a pickup and trailer loaded with crap leaving the dump on Josefa as the cleaning was in full swing, and turning toward Caborca prolly to dump there !!!!

Most I have seen is construction materials and one hell of a lot of trees and huge stumps.. I didn't know we had that many trees in RP. ..............

If the President of Mexico is coming, he'll be flying into the airport, and driving right by the dump on the Caborca highway, so hopefully they'll clean it up-soon!

The town is rockin. Line to get to the Malecon this AM at 11 was all the way to Fremont!! Cloudy with storm out of the south and some rain this AM but clearing with high clouds at 1:30. No I'm not going to Sandy Beach to report :p:p:p:)

Heard that the dozers were pushing back the trash on the Caborca highway and maybe trying to bury it. It will make more room to dump the post Semana Santa clean up:eek::eek::eek:

Not a day to be driving around Penasco, at least anywhere near Calle 13 or the Malecon. People are ignoring traffic lights, blocking up intersections, and generally driving stupid. The 4 way at the RR crossing is ignored by BJ drivers. I bullied my way in a few minutes ago and then had to menace a couple of ATV's blocking an intersection. Of course everyone is ignoring the new no turn regulations onto Calle 13 from BJ. Police were stationed there yesterday but looks like they gave up. Lots of pick up trucks loaded with drunks in the back and ATVs roaring through traffic. Saw one compact pickup with the front wheels almost off the gound from the load of people. Radio said one dead and several injured from ATV accidents. Heard competition hill is covered. I'm worried about someone crashing into my van as Chiapis was a racetrack last night and the van has sand packed all over one side from spinning tires.

If Penasco del Sol had no guest it was nobodies fault but their own. Everyone who offered a decent price and a package is full. Those that thought that these folks would pay whatever because it is Semana Santa....well
