This home is foot steps away from the beach, needs some TLC and up-dating. Ample parking for quests.

If you haven’t yet heard about Rocky Point/Puerto Penasco, Mexico, you soon will (whether you read on or just keep your ear to the ground).

Miles and miles of sandy beach, located at the tip of the Sea of Cortez, no hurricanes or tsunamis. A five hour drive from San Diego on the new intercoastal highway, only four from Phoenix or Tucson. Over 50 developments either built or in the works, including a Marriot and the Mayan Resort. Add to that the recent announcement by Holland Amercia and Carnival Cruise Lines to use Rocky Point as a destination port. With a brand new international airport, this place is taking off.
Toss in 340 days a year of sunshine and only two inches of rain, and you’ve got a future so bright you’ll need those shades. If you’d like more information drop me a line. I look forward to hearing from you. Nos vemos pronto.

Puerto Mio is Under Construction

Puerto Mio is Under Construction!

Construction has begun and they mean business! Just the other night, I observed workmen burning the midnight oil. If you haven't heard, Puerto Mio will be a hotel/convention center, and home to theatres, restaurants and retailers. The city has responded by committing to an upgrade of the Old Port, Mirador areas. Power lines will be moved underground and roads repaved, and areas will be designated as pedestrian only. Apparently they're hoping to be up and running by end of summer, if they keep working those nights - they just might be!

Pet Warning~Cocoa Mulch - Kim Barber - Century 21, Puerto Penasco, Rocky Point, Mexico

If you have pets - Warning!

Cocoa Mulch, sold by Target, Home Depot, and Foreman's Garden Supply, among others, contains Theobromine which can be fatal to dogs. It is manufactured by Hershey's, and apparently smells like chocolate. While Hershey's admits it can be dangerous, they claim most dogs won't eat it. There have apparently been fatalities however. So, if you use this particular mulch, watch that your dog doesn't eat it.

Easter Sunday Quake


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well the most exciting event to happen around here lately was of course the Easter Sunday earthquake. At 7.2 it was the largest to hit Mexico since 2003, when a 7.6 struck offshore of Colina, killing 29 and leaving about 10,000 homeless. I'm glad to report that we fared much better, it was even an interesting experience.
I was on a sound, solid, cement, 2nd floor patio, it was rocking like a rowboat. It took a moment to realize I wasn't having bout of vertigo, a friend thought he was starting to have a heart attack - you just don't expect that it's the building that's moving, so your first reaction is to think you're about to have some kind of health crisis.
Luckily there were no health crisis here, nor crisis of any other kind. It seems the town and all the residents survived more or less unscathed! Unfortunately the folks in Mexicali weren't so lucky, click the attachment above to see some astounding shots.
