Perfect in Peñasco

Posted by Rocky Point Times | Feb 28, 2015 | Vince Deadmond |

It was a warm, sunny, blue sky, calm sea winter day in Puerto Peñasco, the kind of day that needs little polish for perfection. Although some fine tuning can make it even better. First a stop, Reggie’s for the essentials, coffee, donut, and a burro for later. The plan was to fly fish with my friend Jeff Voigt. As an older fly fisher with no disillusionment of being young or handsome, most women are not going to give me a second look, even in my best fly fishing shirt. I feel fortunate when my wife gives me a grin and has a twinkle in her eye. My fly fishing fantasies don’t normally include boobies and wet heavy breathing, but this story does, and I was wondering how close to perfection it would get.

There are two main dolphin species around Rocky Point; Spinner Dolphins and Bottlenose Dolphins. The best way to tell them apart is color and size. The Bottlenose Dolphins are primarily one color throughout which is a navy grey. They are also larger than the Spinner, 10 feet verse 7 feet in length.

Finding Paradise

This month I had the idea to write about some of my favorite places off the beaten path in our town. The first two are really on a beaten path, but not exactly a path known for restaurants! The first is Ramon’s new place. You are probably familiar with Cocina de Ramon in town and Restaurant Ramon in the Sonoran Sea on Sandy Beach. Well Ramon has nothing to do with those two restaurants any longer. He has a new place! It is the first full service restaurant on Rodeo Drive!

Upside Down or Right Side Up?

Where does the sea end and the sky begin? That’s my question every time I’m upside down.

This isn’t a new sport or a personal pastime of mine; it’s actually called inversion therapy which involves putting your body into a position where your head is lower than your heart.
