What is it about this place, and am I the only one that feels this way? We've been down here for 10 days now and honestly, I have never felt better. I realize that I'm on vacation, so there's no work stress, the daily grind, etc. But what I'm talking about is a different feeling. I've been drinking beer almost every day, I've been eating exactly what I want and I've lost 5 pounds! I don't have that sick, bloated, poisoned feeling that I have in the US. Is it because the air is fresh - the food is fresh and without all the damn preservatives and chemicals? Is it something in the air? Obviously the water is different. I actually feel clean after a shower, my hair isn't dry as straw - less soap and shampoo is needed, and my skin looks better!
Is it all in my mind or do others feel this way too????????
You are definitely exhibiting symptoms of a common condition. Many others experience the same phenomenon, and the only treatment is to decrease your vitamin D intake (i.e., get out of the sun), avoid any alcohol, and go back to the rat race up north.

AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! :eek: DON'T DO THAT!!!!!!!!
It is the the condition know as Mexicus Relaximus
I know exactly how you feel
I suffer from the condition Mexicus Jealousness. (wish I was there)
Always feel the same way....even if we work on condo, it seems fun! Laundry and cleaners always smell "fabuloso" Glad to hear you are having a great time....soon those LP lights will have grown on ya..lol...
Bill Sisson a old time Cholla Bay guy that my neighbor at Santo Tomas is sort a viking mystic. He is always down by tide line on crazy days like this soaking up the excess ions...me just boogie boarding..fun today!
We lived there full time and never felt better. Part of it, I think, is the food. Pure sugar - not as much of it - not as much packaged foods - tons of avocados because they are soooo good and so inexpensive compared to the States. You tend to walk more. You interact with people - we never went anywhere that either we didn't run into someone we knew - almost always - and/or meet someone new - so smiles always on our faces. And a smile a day keeps the doctor away.
Relax and enjoy and know that you are doing your body/mind good. And even science agrees with you that living by the sea is actually better for your health.

I totally agree. I have a slight sinus condition and while I was there for CM, I noticed that it did not bother me once and I don't even remember sneezing.
I could not agree more! Whenever we go, and not as often as we would like to. We are south of the border and completely disconnect from everything up north experiencing a complete change in attitude. We sleep in, watch dolphins, take long walks, take naps, cocktails and sunsets, and just being with each other in every sense of the word ;)!
You got that right. You are now a certified Gringo Mexican.
Now that we are retired it is Rocky Point in the Winter and Shlow Low AZ. in the Summer.
My wife does not handle the heat well or we would be full time.
You mentioned the Avocados but try eating Papuya every day. They are great for your Kidneys.
I have some Kidney failure and when we are down for the Winter they inprove in function. From as low as 24% to a high of 41 %
Welcome to the good life and hope to meet you next winter.
We are in Plya De Oro # 50 most of the Winter. Stop by
Glad you brought that up. I was hesitant to mention it. I have seen them 2 times in RP in the last 2 years. I definitely notice a pattern in Phoenix of feeling pretty awful the 2 days immediately after the "spraying" begins. A lot more people are starting to notice it lately too.

Here's the best argument I have against chemtrails:
The US military has the technology to prevent contrails. Engine modifications, fuel additives, altitude adjusting autopilot linked with humidity sensors, and ultrasonic pulse generators are all routinely used to inhibit cloud formation in an aircraft's wake. Without it, all the stealth technology in the world would be entirely useless since a stealth jet's contrail would be a giant white arrow across the sky that points out exactly where it is and exactly where it came from.
If the military was actually for some reason dumping chemicals into the atmosphere it would be incredibly simple for them to render it invisible to the naked eye. If chemtrails were real, you wouldn't be able to see them.

The government doesn't care if we see them or not. How long has it taken for even a fraction of people to admit that they might even exist? We're all just a bunch of sheeple, following the herd, going about our daily business. Even now that some people believe they are chemtrails, what are we going to do about it? Nothing. What can we do about it? Nothing.
Gosh Kenny, I didn't say I actually believed all those conspiracy theories! Chemtrails, yes. No matter what you say, though, the majority of the population are sheep - and I'm not excluding myself, either.

I wasn't pointing at you or anyone in particular Melissa. I'd just seen that picture on Facebook right before I read these post's and thought I'd post it to see if anyone would go baa.
They are useing alumemum micro bots in the contrals now.....they settle down and they break the blood/ brain barrier.....twice in the early mornings here lately noticed those dam jets releaseing those trails.....stright lines..then the wind spreads then out and it looks like clouds. Perfact blue skys they turn into cloudy skys....
Those contrals don't disapear, they spread out like clouds. Make a great
Rocky Point clear blue sky, cloudy!
Then at same time in the early morning, I watched the passerger jets in their fly lanes and their contrails disapear in a few minutes.
Why here???????? I really think thats what is screwing the US weather up, not earth warming. They say the polor ice has increased, so them trying to cool the earth that is in a cooling state, is being cooled more! Gov always gets its hands on something, and it screws it up worst. Oh well who beleaves in gobal warming...??? Then nice clouds!
Stuart.......
When we get our age the last thing is to worry about a tin foil jockstrap! That way...if ya find the "one" in a drunk'en binge....ha! Ya don't get an 18 year food ticket ya have to hand out! Yup!
Waist of time putting tin foil on ya head or the poor sheep's head before he expoldes, or on that certain part of the male that hangs low, cause when that stuff the gov puts in the comtarils (the alum micro bots) settle, it finally starts to come down to the earth and we breath them in.......gets into blood, then the alum bots gets to our brain.
So heavy margareta's and Mex beer is the only RX, is all us serfs can do to fight this gov cospiracy, if any non sayers are out ther!
Gov is doing that to cool the earth as they want the sun to reflect up, but true recorts show the earth cooled somewhat over a peroid of time!
This I think all boils down to who is stronger in congress....the Dem are in control....they say there is global warming! So there is golal warming So they want cap and trade, and chemtrails to cool the earth. Now the Repub, are not in power, and they say no cap and trade, and no chemtrails!! ,,,,but they lose!
So for now we have a screwed up government....so thats it in a nut shell!!!
Rejack, I love the ability to work from 5:00 am to about 11:00 am, stop for the day. Launch the Jetski at Cholla bay, ride for a few hours.....wind up in the malecon for drinks and dinner. Enjoyed a full day of activities and spent less than 40 bux including the gas for the Jetski. Come back home in the hood totally relaxed and a new attitude to conquer the small things I have to do around the casa
Hijacks are good! They the edge off things.....your thoughts, my thought, then there is theirs.......thats the way normal conversation flows........thats good! Ask Russ!
What, me no worry!
We really need to get going on the electric solar charged Jetskis.... Thank god their are no guns allowed in Mexico as drink gringos would b picking them off at sunset from the chicken coops for sport.

You ain't been drinkin' enough! Hahahaha!!
I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't pretty rough heading out for fishing in the morning a few times! Not so much now that I'm older and the Mirador is Deadsville. But oh, back in the days the Mirador was hoppin'? Oh yeah... what does a dog say? RUFF!!!!!! o_O

I drank my share of tequila Friday, it just seems like you recover faster. Maybe its just that I start drinking again quicker in Penasco.
Yes the Mirador used to be the place to be and now is non-existant. Except the Pink Cadillac's music playing till 4am kept me awake and angry all night..
I"m getting all confused about " What about this place" its making my head spin...
Not that it does all the time! So I had to go to the Tequila Factory ant buy me a big
Barrel of tequila to deal with this place! Actually will hide it so it ages.......
That aged tequila will rid the micro bots out of my brain, as both end up there!
So what about this place? Must be to good for words for that we keep putting up with stuff like the gov border stuff.....and keep comming back! Funny tho, OB opened up the gates for thousands, (non US ciz) and we go thru hell at the border going north.
Most of us bring nothing, comparded to what they let come across now! Glad I not working for them, my diper days are over with! Its RP time now.
Now, what is our topic again?????? Russ, my friend, help me here! To much barrel tequila! Ha or ja ja!

You guy's should do your homework, right now you're gatting a F!
Unaccompanied minors fall under the bipartisan law, William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008, which passed the House and Senate unanimously and was signed into law by President George W. Bush.
Kenny.....I'll be the first to admit that I know nothing about what you just stated. But it still sucks.
Sorry Melissa..off topic :(. The Man started it :p
I don't mind thread hijacks at all. But I don't want to get started talking about immigration. That belongs in Rants and Raves.
When someone fuc's up a tread throwing religion politics and immigration around, it is totally unacceptable, don't matter if you given your buddy 500 likes!

I think the nice thing about vacationing in Northern Sonora is the warmth of the people.Screwed by their bosses,unions,leaders and police they seem to have a deep well of grace in a bad spot.The number of times I have been helped out with nothing demanded in return is uncounted.
:):):)Kenny..I am going to get off this imm topic quick, but all those kids are being coached on what to say after they get here! They found the cheat sheets?
Anyway, this place called Rocky Point, getting back to topic, for all topic lovers,
has so much to offer, I really know we all who found the place, are really really lucky!
The people who are to scared to come down, its their loss, my dauther and family for one, their loss.
Now, a plug for 'old Russ! And the Russ Bus... So was my wife. But back in the mid to late '90 when Russ and his wife ran their Rocky Point RV caravan club, they invited my wife and me to join the pack! Lots of thought to bring the RV down, but we did!
Darn old Russ.....changed our life foreger, this place had everything, thats why we all come back and back! And came and crash here........for our own reasons.
Told the boss a few choice words, sold the rentals, now building a house here!
Oh, got to say, the Mexicans we know, don't know, all the workers we came in contack with, seem to be really great people..yes even the ones that want to wash windshields, beg for a few $, which we always keep a pile of change in the car, but
I would do the same if I was in their position. To my Mexican neighbors who always there to help without asking for anything in return, there when we are sick, watch the house when we are up north...come and water the plants...
To sitting just befofe sunset having a beer or margarita over looking the Sea of Cortez,
the fishing, a host of stuff to much to mention......
Im so ready to go, I bought a sea salt and rain scented candle yesterday at Walgreen.
Ok Teqilatod,,,, I'll play the blaim game game also ...
AZRob started this ha no affence AZROB....
What does Sea salt and Rain candles smell like! That Walgreens had to be in Rocky Point, right?.... Then that can be good to ! I like the beer smelling ones in the house.
Point!,,,,if ya going to say something, say it, and be a man and say it, and don't put blame on someone else!
The man,
It smell like the fresh sea salty smell when its raining out. No its not in PP, I wouldn't have to buy one to get a artificial smell if I was there. PS dont mess with my candle, you might get burned.
New thread idea....smells of Rocky Point candle scents...I favor the diesel/Hawaian Tropic candles myself
Oh Jerry Jerry.....This is Rocky Point! Please please no diesel scents ......
That can ruin the topic of this post...ja ja
How about candles with the sent of weed! Remember this is Mexico. Some would go along with that. But diesel fuel??? (Don't touch the stuff tho) My high is good old tequilla.
Now thats more in line with smells of Rocky Point!
