Puerto Peñasco is so much more than a friendly beach town for rest and relaxation. Once again, our residents have proven how quickly they can come to the aid of visitors in those rare situations when something does go wrong.
In the case of Sonoran Sea Resort owners, Pam Ross-Fogel and husband Bob, they were recipients of a full and impressive dose of the kind of caring action that our residents are capable of pouring forth when the going gets tough.
When conducting research for the blog on Barb’s great Rubber Ducky Race in July, the rather creative term for a group of ducks, “a paddling” (along with several others as in the headline above), got us wondering how much fun it would be to see what words our imaginative ancestors came up with to describe groups of other animals. And sure enough, it was certainly an interesting delve into history, conflict and clever interpretation dating, in some cases, back to the 16th century…
Well, El Pescadito is only new to our pond. It’s actually a 14 year old franchise operation with 28 restaurants nationwide and a very successful franchise concept involving proprietary recipes, secret sauces and dressings, cleanliness, training and service.
The Perez family follows a tradition of basket weaving that dates back to the Spanish conquest in the 1500’s when indigenous Aztec tribal populations (actually called ‘families’ rather than tribes) scattered to the mountain sides in fear of Spanish leader, Hernan Cortés and reestablished their way of life in the isolation and protection of the rugged mountainous regions in the Mexican state of Guerrero…
Bob, however, is one of those guys, like many here in Rocky Point, who could and should have a book written about his life. In fact, he already has the title: “Trouble”. There just wasn’t enough action at his track down here, aptly named Thunder on the Beach Raceway, especially the type that could rustle up enough adrenaline to thread the veins of a guy who’s raced about every kind of vehicle and vessel that would hold enough horsepower to scale a six foot wall with one wrong move or take a 200 mph nitro-injected skip around a lake surface, or go so fast so quick it requires a parachute to stop.
Roger Clyne and The Peacemakers are such a stand out rock and roll phenomenon and of near incalculable importance to the economy of our little slice of paradise by the sea, yet they are the first to say that it’s their fans, affectionately known as the Peacemakers, that make it all possible year after year. So in the spirit of one of the most loyal fan bases of any music group, we salute the Peacemaker Fans this year…
With the help of local leaders like Kit Anderson of Peñasco Beauty and Fitness Centers getting the word out, on Tuesday June 11, 2013, Antonio Mendivil and his Board of Directors gave a Power Point presentation in English to 30 business owners from the Expat community with the intent to take the first step to open communication and let the businesses know that CANACO is capable of providing important…
Born and raised in Wichita, Kansas with a B.A. in Marketing from the University of Kansas, Dennis brings over a decade of international travel experience in the airline industry and with the Wichita Convention and Visitors Bureau, which he says has helped him grasp what the true potential for growth is here in Puerto Peñasco. Having lived in many cities including Honolulu, Houston, Denver, Dallas and Seattle, he knew the destination was on its way…
Jerri and Tony Poteste, owners of La Spa as well as owners of a condominium in the Sonoran Spa designed and built this comfy retreat to their tasteful specifications and have maintained and upgraded their treasured possession since it opened.
Among La Spa’s six individually decorated and quite comfortable accommodations that are fully equipped for facials, waxing, and specialty body treatments, there’s a cozy couples massage suite
With more space, more decorations, more black jack tables, more Texas Hold ‘em tournament tables and improved layout, by the official opening time, it seemed the veterans from last year had already found their place at a black jack table, after sharing a sample of Puerto Peñasco’s own Tequila Peñasco of their choice from Charlie Muratore, located at the casino entrance right across from the registration table…
