I'm loading up in a minute for the 3 hr drive to ATL. See you at the OXXO in about 10 hours.
It will be difficult to top your last trip. But we'll give it a try.
Safe travels!

Just pulling into the harbor at Puerto Vallarta.  Very slow fishing.  Dave Hoffmann caught a fish. No one else did. Coming home with just a bag full of dirty laundry.

A great time was had by all amd I have to say the Osuna's have really stepped up their game in the meals department.  The food was like a five star Michelin restraunt.  Lots of huge tuna jumping all around us but they all had lockjaw.
