S/V Loomba-Loomba

We arrived in San Carlos on October 13th, worked on Loomba-Loomba in the work yard for a week, launched on October 21 and moved to the marina where we worked on getting the boat ready to go while waiting for a good weather window. We left Bahia San Carlos on November 5th heading across for San Juanico on Baja. View of the San Carlos Storage yard from the cockpit in the work yard. A gorgeous tree outside the guard house at the work yard. When we first arrived it was covered with beautiful orange blossoms - there are a few left in this picture. Leaving the work yard. Sunset in Bahia San Carlos. San Juanico: Jose manages the small organic farm up the road from the beach. He didn't have any produce because he had just re-planted, but he did have eggs and goat cheese. Lots of turkey chicks this year........... and lots of baby goats.............. ..........and lots of chickens! We were in San Juanico for a week: We played so

After Yellowstone and Grand Teton we stopped at Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area to camp for the night.  From there we went to Dinosaur National Monument. It's a bit out of the way and not easy to get to, but we have been there before and liked it so we decided to return and were glad we did. The weather was nice and there were no crowds.  A bonus was the amazing petroglyphs on the way: From there we went to Colorado National Monument: Nice Campgrounds, beautiful views and Big Horn Sheep! From there we headed toward Highway 145 and up over Lizard Pass (10,222') and then camped on the Dolores River. Next Stop Mesa Verde: We were here a few years ago, but were tent camping then and we got rained out. This time we had great weather.  The ruins are spectacular and it's well worth it to take a ranger guided tour. My favorite, however, is the Wetherill Mesa.  The Park Point Fire Loo
