San Juanico Days

Queen Tatiana.
Last years queen.

John & Becky celebrate 40th wedding anniversary!

Sneaky John arranged with Giulia a romantic evening. Giulia was our chef and she fixed the most fantastic gourmet dinner we have ever had, anywhere. It was amazing. Thanks Giulia!
Still in love and crazy (according to our kids) 'after all these years', 40 to be exact!
We ARE happy!! This was the best anniversary ever.

Finally WE ARE THERE!

New electrical poles & wire being attached on Mex. Hwy 53 north of Cd. Insurgentes.
The dirt road into San Juanico. (Needs to be plowed, or, maybe it was extra bumptity since we were towing the LONG trailer and going an average of 15 mph?)
18 wheeler with tractor we passed going into San Juanico.
YIPPEE!! the paved road. What a sight for sore.....everything!
A welcome site.
The first of the booths getting ready for San Juanico Days.

More Pavement! Yea! the main road into Loreto is being improved.
It's kind of a mess right now. This work is being done in front of the Pescadero grocery store . It looks like curb & gutter going in. Kinda tricky maneuvering the LONG trailer through here.Loreto Shores RV Park was a sight for sore eyes, bottoms, & nerves. The new pool was very refreshing. We were glad & lucky we stopped here for the night because while we were enjoying our time in the pool a friend told us that we had a flat tire on the truck. At least it happened after we had parked the trailer. SO....we pumped it up and headed out to the taller de llantas across the street from the Hacienda Hotel and got it fixed. SOOOO glad it did't BLOW out on us on the road.

Are we THERE yet?

The BEST tamales in Baja California Sur, according to John, Dustin and numerous Baja travelers. Famosa Carmelita is in Jesus Maria, a little town just north of Guerrero Negro. (Muchos TOPES in this town!)

Another bridge being built on the way to Loreto.

Are we THERE yet!?

We left Temecula, CA on June 17 for our return trip to San Juanico. Here we are at Estero Beach a great RV park in Ensenada. As you can see we are towing a LONG trailer. This will be the Treto's new home in San Juanico.
Well, we made it as far south as San Quintin on our second day of the journey. We had to have an electrical glitch fixed so we could have running lights on the trailer. Jose' from 'Auto Electrico-El Corto' in So. San Quintin, fixed us up in no time.
Are we there yet? Lot's of road work being done on Hwy 1. This is just south of El Rosario. It looks like they are widening this part of the road and smoothing out some of the 'curvas peligrosas'.

Traveling Working and Grooving

A weary traveler contemplates his road to nowhere. The north road for no salt. Have fun with the dust.


The first time this guy's hands have seen anything but a keyboard in a while.

Sara exchanges her syringes and IV's for a caulking gun

Jose puts on the finishing touches for our septic


Pizza night was enhanced by live music from some local artists and a guest. Mateo and Brittany and guest string tickler Andrew lit up the dining room with some electrifying surf inspired lyrics and a steady rhythm.



Their tunes seemed to conjure some oceanic stoke and Mateo scored a nice sundown carve.

PSB septic

Dustin worked REALLY!! hard to get the septic finished. It was amazing how quickly it got done! Sara and John cheered him on.

Becky's scorpion

Becky got her annual scorpion sting. Same finger as the last one. This time John went to the clinic and the Doctor gave him a prescription for an injection. With the help of John and his great 'first-aid' and getting her to the Doc., Becky recovered much quicker this time.
El Alacran makes a great conversation piece. Becky put him in his place!
