Los Cabo Here I Come Again

12 - 16 Feb 2009
Spent a few day back in Cabo. This time went with Griff. Showed him how to get into and out of Mexico. Spent twenty years looking for the Red October, I found the Red October in Cabo. :) The Navy can stop looking.


Stayed in the Marina Fiesta again. This time my room was on the marina boardwalk.




Went to the Cabo Wabo again. Such a fun place. Again the band was awesome.



This is a good picture of the point of Los Cabo. If you see the white sand beach to the right, mid picture. Griff and I walked to that beach over the mountain to the left side and hiked back to the marina. Way cool hike. The Marina Fiesta is to the Left side of the picture out of view.


On the left side of the mountain looking to the North. This is the entrance of Cabo.


Finished the hike around the mountain. You can see the Marina Fiesta behind me. When you are walking on the marina boardwalk; there are vendors that try to sell you things. If you say no thank you, then they ask you if you want some pot. We had one vendor ask that set of questions, and we said no. He then said "yea pot is bad do you want some coke?" as if coke is'nt bad. Seemed pretty funny to me.


Sitting on the beach looking at the mountain we hiked around.

Saving Able

28 January 2009
Drove 4 hours from St. George to Salt Lake City to watch the Saving Able, Papa Roach, Avenge Sevenfold, And Buckcherry show. The show was at The E-Center. Saving Able was the first act of four. They were awesome. They sounded great.





This song was for the military. I have so much respect for these guys support for the troops.

Papa Roach

28 January 2009
Second act. These guys sounded great and had a awesome stage presence.




Great song.




Lead singer was all over the place. He visited our side.

Avenge Sevenfold

28 January 2009
Third act. Could have done without hearing them. They were way too loud, the lead singer didn't sound that good, and it sounded like none of them were playing together.

Buckcherry

28 January 2009.
The last and main act. They sounded great. I was able to get some good video with my little camera. Enjoy the show I did. Well worth the 8 hour round trip from St. George to SLC.
