Default Things to do before Spring launch

Ok, I just have to jump in (I don't have anything better to do at the
moment). It is the Sea of Cortez (of Cortes, maybe, maybe not) or the
Gulf of California. I'll, of course, be a little embarrassed if someone
actually looks it up and proves me wrong, but that's what I grew up
with and I'm, like the man says, stickin' to it.


I used to camp at Playa Santispac and I've been to Santa Rosalia. If anyone
isn't daunted by the logistics of getting to the area, especially you
fishermen, it is well worth the visit at least once in your travels; Bahia
del Los Angeles would be a great destination.


Sigh. Once again, Cortés was Spanish, not Mexican. Therefore his last
name is spelled Cortés, not Cortez. Cortes is the Mexican spelling of
the name, but not the way the man himself spelled it.


I'd really like to see you take that position, Krause, at a Marina
Palmira dock party...heck, they'd probably just hand you another beer
knowing your whacked.
