Scored the coveted corner nook spot at Rolling Hills. Nothing behind or beside us but, well, rolling hills.

Well, we were on the beach with a new 19 and 21 as well as Jim's 5.0TA. I won't say yet which one really caught her eye. Time will tell. :)

Yup, Baja 2020, probably. :) Although I'm worried, Michele's been dropping comments that it may be with a new Escape! That would be OK with me, more mods to do. :)

Scorpions or not, using a flashlight when walking around at night is a good idea. The "ground" is mostly uneven and rocky and the sky is very dark. Great for sky gazing.

Did you forget folks shining UV lights at night so they could see the scorpions? Oh wait, that's at Q'site. :)

All beaches in Baja are run on a concession system. The camping fee is collected every few days and was about $5.00 US a day. That gets you your spot, outhouses and garbage disposal.
