SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27, 2018  –  #2914

Note:  I am going to stop posting the road reports because it appears all roads are open and passable.  Some better than others but for the seasoned Baja travelers it’s just same-ole-same-ole.  This is ofcourse, until there is a new major event on the highways.
