Tropical Storm Andres

Posted in Places, surfing on June 23, 2009 by Cire Gadje Ell

The first tropical storm of the season in the eastern Pacific might become a hurricane briefly Tuesday, with sustained winds of 73 mph or stronger, but later in the week, as it skirts Cabo San Lucas and tracks westward, it is expected to diminish and ultimately will dissipate in cooler water northwest of Baja California’s tip. Should be good surfing farther up the Sea of Cortez side later this week.

Wow!  We are back and trying to figure out things that may have went by the wayside and also just get used to being home.   One highlight was going skiing on Wednesday.

If you look close you can still see two months worth of Baja dirt and bugs on Tracy’s car.

Just a little temperature difference but still one of the more beautiful places on earth.
