40 hit like a freight train. I was young one day, old the next. Instead of staying up till 2:00am, I started getting up at 4:00am.

The good news: Old women started looking better and better.

It is probably worth taking some time to look at Google Earth and zoom in on some of those areas. Baja California is very dry and mostly empty. The Sea of Cortez is full of life and is beautiful. The...

Get out of Dodge.

If you have a car, wander up the peninsula. How much time do you have and how much mobility?

I only cared because a good friend was aboard and needed to make a flight. Other than that, I'd happily bob around in the bay all day and just wait for it.
