It's nasty weather this week, real feel temps were 115-125 when I was there from Fri-Tues. Air is thick from the humidity, but you already know that. Enjoy

Tues 8/25, Update on my trip report, I left Cholla at 10am drove past the spray station, people running it had waved the 2 cars I saw there thru. For my 5 trips into Cholla for my I was sprayed once. The weather has been brutal the past 3 days but I still saw people doing the zip line, riding...

My Local buddy said he's seen people fishing on it.

We used to ride our ATV's from Cholla to the beach before Playa Bonita until 1995, hell you can't even get on Sandy Beach now without staying at one of the Condo's, Playa Bonita or the Reef RV park. If something is different, fill me in, Thx.

If you choose the Reef, it's in a more secluded area, close to Wrecked and Mar Blu but you'll be looking at that unfinished jetty. I paid to day camp at the Reef RV for access to Sandy Beach and enjoyed the beach but found the Jetty was my only complaint, it really screw's up the view.

Hi Joe, Local exchange rates at the Cambio are 19.5 to 1, so places will be giving you 19-20 to 1. Depending on where. Peso is 22 to 1 if you're using US bank account to withdraw at local ATM. Which is what I do. My favorite ATM's are Banamex brand, in the Super Norte and across the street in...

Update on another trip, 8/21/2020. I crossed the border today, Friday 8/21 at 10 am. I got the green light, the Marine check point waved me thru. This is the first trip in a long time I didn't see a Sonoyta police lurking in the shadows waiting for some unsuspecting Gringo to blaze thru Sonoyta...

I heading to Penasco tomorrow morning and will report any issues.

I saw some cars on Sandy beach last week near it and my local friend has seen people fishing off of it. So, it's coming along just fine. :cool: I'm sure cruising from Penasco won't happen for a few to many years. Covid took care of that.

A friend who does work for me had 2 in his family sick and 5 in his wife's family sick from Covid. The reported numbers are low. Probably closer to 4-500 people. The hygiene isn't the best in Mexico and other places.

Trumpy = Brilliant, :laugh2: Some peoples hero is also viewed like a piece of gum stuck to the bottom of your shoe. Can't wait to scrape it off.

Joe, that's what the translated post said, The post also said they were from Penasco. No life vests, perhaps drinking involved and poor swimming abilities, could have been part of this sad situation. Who really knows

Edited with updated info: It happened to the right of JJ's from the look of the pic, homes on the bay and Comp hill is visible. 2 people fell off a Jet ski (guy and girl) or were hit by another Jet ski? that put them into the water? Still some confusion 2 guy's swam out to help the people from...

In front of the CV, LOL It's too bad he thought that's all he had to do was to stop some of the Chinese. 40k still came here after he closed the door. The reality is most of the CV cases that infected the US came from Europe after the visitors came from Asia to Europe. There are plenty of...

That 84 degree Dew Point is giving me heat stroke just looking at it. We were in Cholla for 5 days the past week and the dew points were hitting 80 while there. It was rough being outside. Thank's for having your station up for us to enjoy, soon I'll set one up for my place on Pinto Point in...

I heard about that, but didn't know if it was true. When we went into town with my local buddy, he put his on and when I asked him about it he said sometimes the police will pull you over for not wearing one, just to try to collect the fine from you. He said wearing one to avoid being harassed...

It makes for great headlines to show how on top of stopping CV he was. 5.3 mil with 169k deaths so far, That's his version of winning. :cool:

Joe, it was Hot and Nasty humid during our stay,from Sat morning until Wed we had 94-96 for the high's and 83-86 for the lows, Humidity was a problem, when, I would walk out from my house I'd get hit with a 95 degree, 70% humidity wall of welcome to Aug in Penasco. It's that bad. The sun is...

Sounds like your area is special, Getting a CV-19 test most anywhere has been much harder than it should have been. End of this story.

Joe, it was a low key trip. Only bad thing is the Aug weather, really hot and humid. Ocean is so warm now and most every place is slow. If you like the weather go for it.
