Shop in at least one small, locally owned store each trip!
Pick up your trash (and someone else's) at the beach.
Smile and say hello to the locals, you'll always get one back.
Don't Forget to...
Share your experience here with the good folks back home.
Remember that most of you are a visitor in a foreign country.
Do you part for the environment and purchase beer with returnable bottles... preferably from CoronaGirl's store on Juarez.
Listen to GoPenasco Radio for weather and tide info along with great classic rock.
Don't forget to relax and appreciate that you are there, remember what keeps you coming back, and savor every moment.
If you live there full time, don't forget how lucky you are, and remember the rest of us that are still trying to figure out how to join you full time!
Dont ask what your Rocky Point can do for you, ask what you can do for your Rocky Point............ Jerry, don't tell me about the new ISR tax about to clean our clocks, dont say its true. or is it ISR? I dont want to tell you either about a new raise of the transfer tax.
My buddy is freaking out over it...it is a killer for builders...I sort of understand it but can't figure out why they are killing the golden goose

Don't haggle to the point of being obnoxious with beach vendors-that $5.00 you save that you'll brag to your friends at home about will soon be pissed away on a $5.00 fancy coffee at Starbucks. The extra $5.00 for the vendor will make a difference to them!
Just keep in mind, some people including biz owners spend what they make. In good times people spend all their makes and in bad times they have no makes to spend....

Using the dont word. It don't make sense. If its an addition to the ISR, its already over 30 percent, I think I would start dumping, all I could before it takes effect. I hope they hurry up and sell Pemex, that will free up a little money.
#5 above is one if my favorites. How bad is it that some nights I can't wait to go to sleep just so I can wake up early, sit on the patio, sip my coffee and watch the sunrise?
P.S. This thread makes up for all the BS this weekend with Happy. Thanks for starting it Jerry!
This forum fucks me up ... why you ask? Well there are some great things that can happen via online networking but there are a lot of things that can soooooo drive people away (both good and bad) .... but I have to raise my hand and say as a "liberal" trying to make a difference in peoples lives & meet some like minded people with the same vision or vibe ... I hesitate to post much on here because I am not the "average" person (probably by some people here an abomination)... but I REALLY do try to make a difference in others lives by the PIF values my parents and family raised me .... my life is good and I don't need to probably worry one **** about anyone else but ... LISTEN.. this is where I know I was raised right and have a soul .. I CHOOSE to give back and PIF! I thank my parents, grandparents, and my midwestern upbringing that gave me a sense of community where ever it be! Many times Joe & I are not welcomed into a community because of our life .. but that has never stopped us from trying to make the world a better place than we had/have to live through. And I thank not only my parents but the pioneers and visionaries that have given me the hope and strength to still try to be the best soul I can be irregardless of the hate ... I choose to be better and have been raised to be better.... #my2cents #behuman #makeadifference #thinkaboutit #haterswillstillhate ... BUT its all good I know I tried my best when my day is done... *steps off my soap box and leaves it at that*
So the best "don't" you can come up with is "don't complain" come on man...a guy that changes as many light bulbs as you must have a few ideas...tips on what makes for a good RP experience
No one cares, was just for a laugh...no pun intended. I apologize for the posts in advertisement...figured the advertisement post was just for that ...My mistake.
-Don't forget to Watch the sunset from the top of whale mountain with a loved one.
-Don't forget Napping on the beach, listening to the sea.
Intolerance is nothing more than the manifestation of closed-mindedness wielding it's immense power over our soul.
Good... then YOU go fishing with HAPPY! HAHAHAHAHAHA! :rofl:
While I like to consider myself open-minded (at least in the sense of I always give anyone I meet the benefit of the doubt until they prove otherwise), some people are just jerks. Leave them behind, don't waste your time. There's too many good people out there that can enrich your life instead of darkening it.

I think everyone has something positive to contribute... It's just that some (many?) tend to shield it behind too many layers of unattractive behaviors and attitudes. (things other people declare as "negative", but which I simply call "not my particular brand of living" :-D )
I agree completely that willingly spending a full day in the company of such incompatible attitudes and beliefs, in the confined space of a fishing boat, can be highly corrosive to one's peace of mind. :ugeek:
Don't just eat the food without really giving thanks for all our blessings.
I'm thankful for a good long and mostly healthy life, my wonderful family and
the many friends I've made as a result of this forum. I'm thankful for the opportunity
to visit Rocky Point and to get to know the friendly and warm Mexican people I've met.
And I'm thankful the police let me out in time for drinks and dinner.
Dont "buy" in to the thought that you MUST buy something tomorrow especially in your pajamas at WalMart Geez...........go to the beach with your friends instead, you will be a much more advanced person. You dont really need that stuff!
