About Us

We are both retired. Built a house near a beach in Mexico to spend the winter away from the cold and snow. Have another home in Washington on the Pend Oreille River where we spend the summer. We divide our time between the two homes.

Mulege

Playa Santispac
Mulege was ravaged by a hurricane (2006?) and it still looks like it needs rebuilding.

It has a river through the middle of town.
Still haven't repaired everything
There are no large grocery stores, just several very small ones. There is a lovely old mission west of town. We camped at Santispac south of town. At the end of the campground is a restaurant. They serve ribs on Saturdays and people come from several of the small communities to eat. You need to get there early before they run out. Each day vendors came to sell bread, produce, firewood and ask to wash your rig. If the wind wasn't blowing there were several islands you could kayak to. I saw three porpoise while kayaking one day. Around the corner there are houses sitting on cliffs made from rock. They have very long steps going down to the water. It was so windy one evening that the slide topper was bouncing around and banging. The neighbors said it looked like a sail. We knew the topper was loose and had tried to get it repaired under warranty without luck. Tom can't figure out how to tighten down the topper so he put a pair of vice-grips on the end to hold it down. Temporary fix until we get home.  The awning wouldn't roll back up, seems like the motor is broke.  Another thing to fix when we get home.  That means we can't roll it out to get shade.
On the way to Santispac we stopped for gas.  So did the carnival, fun colorful rides
