The Bisbee Offshore

The Bisbee got off to a great start today.  I put photos and info on my Cabo Riviera blog since they are sponsors of the Bisbee. So check out the action at http://caborivieraresort.blogspot.com/

Thanks, Bob

Nice Dorado!

My friend and Donna's breakfast customer, Barry, brought in a NICE dorado the other day.  I forgot the exact weight but it's over 70#.  NICE ONE Barry.

Que Milagro!

Mom's Day in San Jose

Happy Mothers' Day.  Hope everyone had a good one.  We enjoyed a day on the beach followed by a great meal by Chef Steve at his house and then followed by a live Rock and Roll concert by (drum roll) ......heck I don't even know if the kids named their band!  Anyway Steve and Helen's two boys and their pal are sounding pretty good these days and treated us to several good tunes from Hendrix and Led Zep to Nirvana to a couple of new bands that I don't know the names. Pretty versatile covering 40 years of music. Here's some pix.

Baja Peninsula Video circa 1949

This video was forwarded to me today from my friend Martha here in Spa Buena Vista. If you're a resident or a Baja fan, you're going to enjoy it.

The Buena Vista Death March

I've mentioned that I walk with a friend and neighbor in the hills around Buena Vista. The nice lady that we walk with, Brigitte, is shall we say "adamant" about walking. Those of us who have had the dubious pleasure of being dragged up and down, over the rocks and through the mud kicking and screaming have earned our blisters. We tell each other that we're in better shape. We claim that we've lost a few pounds. It's possible I suppose......

On the other hand, we have a good time walking early in the morning. We've seen turtles come out of their nest on the beach and watched baby owls grow up. A deer nearly ran over us one morning.

Here's a short slide show of some of the things I've been able to photograph with my phone.

More Turtles

My walking partner Brigitte called the other morning (at 5AM...) and said we would walk the beach that day. There was a fresh hatch of little baby sea turtles. The nesting season is pretty much over but there are always some stragglers. We found 6 turtles which were so cold that they seemed lifeless and were easy prey for the birds. We warmed them up in our hands while I detailed the dangers of ocean life and how they shouldn't befriend strangers especially ones that could eat them. In a few minutes they were charged up and ready to go.

Here's a little video of one making his way into the water.
