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.

San Felipe

Coming into town we hit another military check point. This time they opened cabinets in the bedroom, the medicine cabinet, the refrigerator, looked in the toilet and the kitchen sink and then wanted to see inside the car. It was the most any of the check points had done. Of coarse I'm usually trying to hold the dogs in their leashes. Mistek normally hides behind the bed and doesn't come out, but the last two stops he decided to come out, so try to get him into a harness, (which he hates), before we stop and of coarse Ceetu is also in his harness, (which he doesn't mind at all). Trying to maintain the animals while they are doing their check is a fun adventure. We stayed at “Pete's Camp”. There are old palapas on the beach without power or water. The beach is really sandy, but the tides goes out ¼ of a mile, at least. 


So not the best for kayaking, it would be a long haul. Our friends will be moving to another campground closer to town, but there again there are no facilities. We checked on the beaches south of town. A lot of the campgrounds no longer exist, who knows why.
 

A LOT of the housing developments have gone by the wayside. Looks like there was some sort of storm and the sand took over. Some of the roads have so much sand you need a dune buggy to get in and some of the yards are nothing but dunes.





We rode with our friends to Puertecitos, where the road quits. What a sad little town.
