Great video Jim. I'm incredibly jealous right now. We only made it to Mexico a couple times this year and never any further south than Ensenada. Cabo is totally calling my name now.

I'm glad you enjoyed the videos....I spent a lot of time filming and took a fair amount of personal risk riding that ATV one handed in order to get that video footage. And I did it for YOU, dwellars.

But.... but.... you know how much we enjoyed it when you fell over in the woods. Couldn't you have done an Ozzy Osbourne for us? Just a little one?

there was a close bit, actually, but I was able to keep the rubber side down. It didn't translate well on film though.....

I came through a thick dust cloud on a down hill, and found myself atop a very rutted and bumpy patch where some erosion had occurred.

The next day we went on the atv tour, then to the CaboWabo for an open bar, buffet dinner and 2 hour private concert with Sammy Hagar. Following day was lounging at the pools and beach volleyball tourney with free beers, then in to Cabo for sightseeing, then back to dinner at a fancy restaurant in the hotel. I had foie gras and lobster helper.

I Wachovia. Mexico is prettty awesome too.

My trip was also company paid. It was one of the best times I've ever had. My wife was very jealous. I really need to bring here down there. A friend of mine tells me to go in November because that's Tuna season and you can go out on a boat and come back drunk, sunburned, and hopefully with some tuna. I heard you get all the sushi you can eat while you're out on the boat too.

Turtles had laid eggs on the beach by our hotel, and the hatched while I was there. They had the area roped off so nobody would accidentally walk on the eggs.
