The plan this morning is to pack up and make our way to the beach though I’m certainly not ready to leave. In thirty days we’ve stayed no more than three nights at any given spot and with the way I feel at home here at San Dionisio, I wish we could stay much longer. However, with only six days remaining until we get on the ferry and a few other things we’d like to do and see before then, it’s time to get moving. We say goodbye to Clarence who enthusiastically offers us many recommendations for the mainland and then we depart the ranch and make our way back down the mountain.
In Los Barriles we all try to make quick work of our errands. We need groceries, water, and to dump our toilet at a local RV park. I’m so glad we know the town well and are able to make quick work of getting from place to place.
A winding mountain road takes us over to El Cardonal where the pavement ends and we meet the dirt track that will take us to our next destination. As we ramble down the road I notice an unusual sight to the west, a thick layer of clouds settling over the mountains. I’m not sure the last time we saw clouds, other than a few wisps, I’m thinking it’s been since our first day in Baja thirty days ago. One steep ascent and descent deposits us on to our beach of choice. The guys arrange the three trucks and in no time we’re home.
I’ve thought a lot today about what it means to be home. Home is much more a feeling than it is a singular place. For me, Mark is home, our truck is home, Colorado is home, and now Baja too. Mainland Mexico is the opposite of home, it’s the unknown and the completely unfamiliar. With our ferry trip quickly approaching, I wonder how much time will pass before we’ll once again experience the warm embrace of a place that feels like home.

We ended up paying a little less than the cost on the sign since all we were dumping was a cassette toilet. We paid $5 US. I haven’t paid close enough attention to tell you whether or not that’s typical but Los Barriles is a popular destination for Americans and Canadians so everything costs a little bit more for that reason.
We rode on this Ship bigger than a ferry boat 20years ago Get a booth it took us 16 hours to get across! But we had a blast and on to more adventures! Trying to to get my wife to baja for winter instead of Flordia!
