This is the view looking southeast at the southern end of Bahia de Los Angeles in Baja. We recently returned from spending two weeks in this stark and beautiful area. I like the surreal look that infrared lends to the scene.

The Subaru Baja was a small pickup derived from the Outback. It was sold in North America from 2002 until 2007. The front bumper of this one is not original.
I took this photo on a short break while driving to enjoy some of the sunset. This also illustrates how great highways can be in Mexico.
Taken on the edge of the Sea of Cortez at Bahia de Los Angeles in Baja California, Mexico. We had wonderful clouds on our recent visit, and some great sunrises and sunsets.
In March of 2011, I had this photography printed on to a 20" x 30" canvas, and it's hanging in our living room reminding us of one of the places we love most in the world. It's the first photograph I've had printed on canvas, and I really like the look.

Today's story and sketch "by me' we are in Baja California for the 48th year of the Baja 500.
But in reality the Baja race started hundreds of years ago when it was started by Stewie Gofish,
seen riding his 49cc Hallasa Motorbike, this is the actual bike Stewie rode in his home Crater
as a youth on Lippo his home Moon for a very long time, well until he was told by his neighbors
to knock off the noise.
That was when he journeyed to Earth, and found Baja was a perfect place to ride from his
Uncle Mike's, to the coast and back. And he has ridden every year from that first time, and returns every chance he gets.
And just above in the sketch you see his brother Malcom who has been Stewie's Pre Runner and
Lookout in case of any danger on the path, he carries a supply of Moon Pies and Adult beverages
if Stewie makes a pit stop.
In the early days there was no official, or unofficial race, it was just Stewie scaring the occasional
Donkey riders off the path between Encenada and uncle Mike Gofish's Interstellar Tourist Ranch, at that time the the local farmers, fishermen, and tortilla makers would ride their donkeys to the sky ranch with fresh veggies and Lobsters to trade for Shinny bits (Blue Mood Stones) from Lippo, So that Mike could make his famous signature (Baja Fresh Moon Pies), which is the reason so many aliens from around the Galaxy will stop just for a Lobster Moon Pie, when they are traveling the universe through Worm Hole Nine. Which is an easy In and Out route in Worm Hole Nine,
if you take the Blue Planet off ramp. (But that is a story for another time, the off ramp was unmarked for many "Eon's", a very long period of time, often a period exaggerated for humorous or rhetorical effect). The Baja 500 and other off road motor events, started when people could
see how much fun Stewie was having chasing people and donkeys off the Pathways, Oh and after
Earthlings invented the noisy internal combustion engine just for such a purpose.
till next time taa ta the Rod Blog.
Always be thankful to the people who make your life special.

VW has released a new Baja Beelte with only a minor height increase and a distinct lack of Baja-ness. May I suggest something better?

Yesterday was my first time watching a Baja race, this was the Baja 250, which starts and ends in San Felipe, BC, Mexico.
t's a 250-mile dirt track through the desert and racers compete in "trophy trucks" (like the one on this photo), dune buggies, motorcycles, etc. There is no such thing as security or rules, so spectators walk or drive across the track whenever they think there is room enough to not get hit by a truck doing 80 MPH across the desert. Also no barriers, etc., to block the view.
Como su nombre indica, fueron Escarabajos modificados para las carreras en desierto como la mítica Baja (California) 1000.
