    Puerto Penasco shutting down. What have you heard?

    I hope everyone who has doubted the seriousness of the covid-19 virus, has had a chance to look and see what's happening. This is getting exponentially worse by the day. Each state has its own timetable for when this peaks, however you want to measure it - deaths, hospital beds needed, ICU beds...

    How did you find Puerto Penasco

    We have friends who frequent RP, and we finally were convinced to come down for Thanksgiving, 2005 I think. Without knowing where they stayed, we booked a space for our RV at PDO. Day before we left, find out that they stay at the Mirador - right next door! One group had an upstairs room...

    Puerto Penasco shutting down. What have you heard?

    A couple things to note: one of the Princess cruise ships that had some covid-19 infected passengers, still had active virus in some rooms 17 days after ship was emptied. Also, the White House closed the pandemic office and staff in 2018, as non-essential. Also ignored reports from early 2019...

    locked car door opener needed

    I thought that Manny's story from 2007 was going to end up with the Black Widow taking your money.

    Toilet Paper

    thought I'd chime in - stores in Tempe have no TP. I haven't been to them all, nor are we in dire need, but stores are crazy around here. This morning we drove by Costco at 9:45am - 15 minutes before they open, and the line was 1/2 way around the store. Crazy. No meat in butcher shop at Safeway...

    Cruises to start 2019. Make your reservation now.

    I'm looking forward to the pictures of the tenders leaving port, and the ship anchored out in the bay - should be historic. Hopefully someone posts pics here - the ship lit up at night should be pretty cool to see. also - detailed trip reports from someone taking the cruise would be great to read.

    Halibut or Flounder.

    the brown trout in Oriskany Creek were a blast to catch and eat - never thought I'd see it mentioned here.... I could bike ride to that creek from our home, and often did. We have to drive a bit here in Az to reach decent creeks and streams, but still fun and delicious eating fresh caught stream...

    Halibut or Flounder.

    Alexandria Bay was our favorite place on the river - Kring Point state park. Fishing and water skiing in Goose Bay. Funny how I ended up loving the salt water and Pacific Ocean after growing up there.

    Halibut or Flounder.

    Roberto - I grew up in upstate NY, went to school at Paul Smiths. Spent many days and nights in the thick of the blackflies, still have fond memories of Fulton Chain of Lakes, especially 4th lake. Trout fishing everywhere. Summer nights at the Old Barn in Inlet, live music on the weekends - good...

    We armed ourselves with the best weapon of choice - knowledge.

    Bodies Found

    It's interesting to me that Guaymas at a little over 100,000 people makes that list, but Puerto Vallarta at over 200,000 people doesn't. Interesting. At least it makes me better about flying into PVR next month.

    RV PARKING RATES IN ROCKY PIONT TAKING A 29 % INCREASE

    Roberto, Like I mentioned, we paid $189 for a week, which = $27/nt, water, sewer and electric included. Not sure if we were given a weekly rate, or if there even is a weekly rate at PDO, but they do know us there from our visits over 10 years of staying at PDO. From my limited understanding...

    RV PARKING RATES IN ROCKY PIONT TAKING A 29 % INCREASE

    We just paid $189 for a beachfront week at PDO - $27/nite. Not sure what rates will be in 2020. Sad to see our friends in #50 leaving, but understandable with the rate increase. The money spent on the bar that's being built near the abandoned boat ramp, could have been spent on upgrading the...

    Halibut or Flounder.

    Cortez Halibut - I had to look that up, and it sure looks like the ones we saw on the beach a week ago. A couple local fishermen were casting a net - and had a nice bucket of fish. Also had some corvina (I think), at least looked like them. Wife ended up buying 2 of the Cortez Halibut and one...

    Kenny, That was 2008 I think. Good luck to you wherever you fish - tight lines and bloody decks!
