Roberto: If you know, where does the coal come from?

I have not been to Mex since the price of oil on the world market has fallen. Just curious if the Mexican government has reduced their prices or if they are gouging the Mexican people who have no alternative.

In a lot of contemporary buildings the materials you build with are left exposed. The tendency is to leave your steel, concrete, stone, rammed earth ...........walls exposed on most of the surfaces. This requires much better craftsmen to put your project together because paint, drywall and...

Also, no paint or drywall in the entire house!

Using materials the Mexicans understand is important. My next house in Mex will be contemporary and will be poured in place concrete and iron I-Beams with a curved corrugated metal roof. I put 48" doors in my current Miramar house and absolutely love being able to get furniture, a refrigerator...

This is one way to make a positive change: this article says that legal pot is hurting the cartels: https://news.vice.com/article/legal-pot-in-the-us-is-crippling-mexican-cartels?utm_content=buffer77e5d&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer

Re-read what I wrote. It's short and to the point so you should have no problem understanding it, but if you need an explanation I'll be glad to oblige. Your 'misunderstanding " is typical of many US folk many of whom depend on the supply from the south. Roberto: I would like an explanation...

"the difference between the rest of the world and the USA is that the news in USA are given to the citizens after going thru a great length of censorship while the rest of the world gets the news as they happen here and now without blinders, if you do your search you will find mass killings and...

Six more states vote to legalize pot usage and the retailers will have to grow their own. This cuts the cartels out. I think all drugs should be legalized, taxed to death and then eliminate income taxes :) …….my dream!

Roberto: drug users in the U.S. Don't go around kidnapping innocent students and killing them, nor do they behead their adversaries and hang them from bridges, nor do they committ mass murder (usually). The violence, beheadings, mass murders, wholesale takeover of police departments, kidnapping...

Think maybe Mexico should just hire the Mossad and get serious about taking out their cartels. So far, most of the government and police are bought off or partners: http://www.cnn.com/2014/11/10/world/americas/mexico-missing-students-impact/=

Become the local Uber operative or an Air B&B type service. the software these companies operate on is incredible and so well thought out I think the software platform itself lends itself to a huge variety of service businesses.

Russ: are there small brewers in Mexico? How hard is it to be properly licensed to set up a small brew pub ( my dream), sorry for the multiple questions.

Russ: It would be cool to incorporate all of the motorcycle activity in Penasco into one big bike week kind of based on the one in Daytona Beach. I now there are not enough bike venues but you already have off road races and street bike rally's. It would be easy to build an MX track and have...

I had Miramar mud on my truck. My friend in his jeep was really questioned about the mud.

No way the guard was joking.

Two weeks ago the border guard on the U.S. side, returning to the states, commented that I had too much dirt & mud on my truck, it was illegal and I would have to turn around, go back to town and wash it off. I complained about the line & time and everything else and he ended up smirking and...

Jerry: this sounds like a fun adventure. When you get a date please let me know. Is the air strip in Lobos in use? I was told that for a while it was a prosperous shipping site for the cartels. I love the ATV ride to Lobos from El Desemboque. One question: can I ride to Tomas from...

J: what is the history of Lobos?

I swam for several hours a day in the very calm ocean on the weekend of the 11th but almost had to due to the general stickiness. I can't wait to get back down.
