Cabo has been growing fast, and now there is a new pool with dolphins that we can swim with.  This photo was taken in May, 2006, at the new dolphin tank.

Although it is basically a ghost town, there are several businesses in operation.  This photo was taken at one of the few restaurants in July, 2006.

The area is a ceremonial ground for the Huichol Indians, as well as Mexicans who come from all over the country on a pilgrimage to pray, and eat the magic peyote that grows wild in the desert.

Real de Catorce was once a big town of 40,000 citizens, and is now mostly in ruins with only 1200 residents, living mostly on a small base of tourism.

In September, I took my father, Jack, on a fishing trip to Alaska, and it was so nice to be with him.  It was our last trip together.  He died from lung cancer 2 months later in November.
