Your hard dodger top looks great. Where did you get the FRP, what thickness, etc? Would this normally be available at a home center or ? This is a project we have long been considering and like the way yours looks. Any info would sure be welcome! Nice blog, by the way.

We decided on the advice of people who had driven down to Barra de Navidad and back, to take the toll road the way down and to take the free road on the way back. Sounds like a plan!

The toll road goes all the way to Guadalajara then through Colima and then past two volcanos.

Wow...to think you were in a place in February where the weather was like summertime in Texas. I'm glad you all had a safe and fun time.

We stayed in a really nice place in Barra de Navidad, right across the street from the Sands hotel. The Delphin has very nice clean rooms and a deck to have your morning orange juice. The Lagoon and Grand Bay hotel provide a spectacular backdrop.

We did have a mission on this trip besides fun and frivolity. There is a Costco in Puerto Vallarta and Slacker needed some new batteries. Have you ever seen a Costco store with empty parking spaces at the front of the store?
