After a hectic season of work for Brad, it was time to head back to one of our favorite places—Baja California! The combination of desert and ocean makes it a great vacation choice for us, the sailor and the desert rat. And it doesn’t hurt that it is warm even in the middle of winter! [...]

After our night in town, we all headed to a lovely bay that Brad and I had discovered earlier in the spring—Agua Verde. The road in gets pretty interesting in spots; there are steep, blind corners that only one vehicle can fit through. You constantly look ahead to see if you can see anybody coming [...]
