Jay Sails Wind Raven: Bahia Candeleros

I'm not sure which is the original name, but the bay where Hotel Palmar is located is called Bahia Candeleros and Ensenada Blanca. I have noticed that several places here in the Sea of Cortez have two names. My amigo Anibal once complained of the gringos re-naming the bays and points here. He seemed pretty upset about it, so I didn't press the issue. I can understand his chagrin, I mean what gives foreigners the right to change names in any country other than their own? That brings to mind Countries that have changed their names. Today It's hard to tell what area the news is referring to, because the name of the country has changed at least once since you took geography in school. As an example, check out this site about country name changes. But WHY? http://www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/hist_country_names.htm

LOOKING TOWARDS LORETO FROM THE BAY

A PASTEL SUNSET!

Okay, back to the bay! I have just been procrastinating about what I should do and where to go, or if I should go or stay. Maybe I should stick around for Dorado season, but then again what about hurricane season? I need to haul out in Guaymas to do the bottom, so maybe I should head north to Guaymas or Bahia de Los Angeles and then go to Guaymas later. Then again I could stay in the Loreto area for Dorado season and hope there are no hurricanes that come this way, or if they do, I have a chance to take shelter. It worked last year. If I wait to go I can save up more money and maybe have enough to paint the sides of the boat. It surely needs it. But I could get caught with my pants down, so to speak. If I leave now I will have to leave Guaymas at the height of hurricane season. Where would I go then? To Bahia Los Angeles? What then, sit and wait it out? Hell, I think I'll just sit here and procrastinate for awhile. Maybe the Dorado will start coming in and they will decide for me? Sounds like a plan!

CHRIS GETTING SOME AIR

I met some friends of Drew and Shelly's today from Canada. I took some photos of them wind surfing yesterday and Chris came by today to get them. They seem to be a nice couple. If they are anything like Drew and Shelly I know they are.

HIS LADY!
