    Local barber

    My favorite barber for years here in Nogales just moved to RP a couple weeks ago and is working at Barberia de Luis at Juan de la Barrera & Melchor O'Campo. Ask for Chris, he is a great barber and speaks very good English. I can direct message his cell# in case you need more info. Highly...

    Buying a condo or house

    For me, Rocky Point Dan, aka Dan Monroe, was and is the man. He helped me before, during, and after my purchase and still helps me out to this day if questions pop up. Very professional and gives off none of the sleazy "get rich quick" vibes that many in RP do... http://www.rockypointdan.com

    Hope this does not migrate to Penasco

    More footage of the same incident in Navojoa, and in Hermosillo I guess they are done playing around...

    Hope this does not migrate to Penasco

    My wife sent me this link last week, mainly because it happened right in front of her parents house in Navojoa. Very humiliating to the local police... She told me it was just a local hoodlum high on drugs- we'll see I guess...

    Two hours + going in to Mexico

    Have a buddy in Chandler who has a Sasabe story. Says he was driving with his Dad back from RP through Mexico, and in Altar they were looking at the map and essentially said "F@#k it" and decided to drive up to Sasabe instead of Santa Ana/ Nogales. Says as they got near the border they were...

    Two hours + going in to Mexico

    Grabbed a screenshot, good Lord its look like its about 1/4 of the way up to Why, which would be like a 6-7 mile long line I believe...

    Two hours + going in to Mexico

    Wow, I knew holiday weekends were bad coming in, especially in the afternoon but that sounds God-awful. I can't even imagine how enraged I'd be imagining myself with a cold one on the beach, but instead packed into a hot car staring at cactus...

    Craft Beer / Cerveza Artesanal

    I love loading up on cold Tecate, Dos Equis, Sol, etc as much as anybody, especially out in the afternoon sun at the beach. But sometimes, especially in the evenings, I'd rather have a stronger IPA style brew. And I don't really mean darker Mexican beers like Negra Modelo OR Bohemia either-I...

    Border In

    We crossed Thursday about 5:30pm. Just had to wait behind a big RV and 2-3 cars. While the RV was being processed, a Mexico customs guys came to our vehicle on foot. He didn't seem to care at all about what we were bringing in but *did* ask to see the vehicle registration, which hasn't happened...

    Agua en Penasco

    As many have noted previously, this forum has deteriorated in some ways over the years. However... though at times his comments border on the outrageous, for my money Jim almost single-handedly makes this forum a must visit for me (with no slight at all intended to Jerry or Roberto, who are...

    Puerto Penasco to Hermosillo

    The blue route is the one I would usually take from Nogales to Penasco or Nogales to Hermosillo, and I think the grey route is the coastal highway down to Bahia Kino. Does anyone have any insight/comments???

    Puerto Penasco to Hermosillo

    Is that going east to Santa Ana first and then south to Hermosillo on 15? In April I am planning to go from Penasco to southern Sonora and was considering taking the "coastal highway" instead of the Santa Ana/Highway15 route. Looking at the map it looks like it probably wouldn't save much time...

    That's one of the original coupies from a couple years ago so not 100% guaranteed to work but at least for me it seems they haven't been too picky about taking various versions (I have seen many LOL)

    +1 on Kaffee Haus for Breakfast, just keep in mind that it usually involves a decent wait time to get a table, especially for a large group. If it is a group who is new or relatively new to RP, take them up to Casa de Capitan. Its a bit overpriced by Mexico standards, but the view will wow any...

    A NEW WAY TO COOK SHRIMP

    I love machaca, my wife is from southern Sonora (Navojoa) and it is a staple there. I will have to try the brand from the fruteria. As you say, makes a fantastic breakfast- also from wife I learned that if you start with diced tomatoes, onions and jalapeños (if you want a kick) in the fry pan...
