ROAD REPORTS

a.  TECATE CROSSING – Thanks to everyone who responded to my request for road conditions on Mex 3 between Tecate and Ensenada.  Here is a summary of the comments I received:
“All of the previous construction had been paved, and the roads were beautiful.  There were a few minor clean-up crews and some line painting etc.  The only construction going on was on the sides of the existing old roads, way off to the sides.  Only one short piece of dirt road!  The new pavement is beautiful. . . .  Also, the construction near Santo Tomas was done, and that stretch of road is great! “

QUESTIONS

a.  I am looking for someone who has a 22-25 foot panga that would like to sell 1/3 or 1/2 share. I come down to LB twice each year for a week or two at a time, and don't want to leave a boat sitting idle the rest of the year. If you live down there most of the year, have a dependable panga, and would like to sell part ownership, I am interested. I have been operating boats for 25 years, so know what it takes to maintain one. Thanks  wasser.larry@gmail.com
