I’ve been social distancing in Queens, but this didn’t prevent me from telecomexchanging the news with my sister. She took these photos and told me about her experiences sailing in the Sea of Cortez. You can click on the link to the article at the end of this post.
I hope to get to the Sea some day; parts of it are designed a UNESCO World heritage site.
Isla del Carmen is a refuge for bighorn sheep whose future was threatened in mainland areas of Baja California.
The plethora of wildlife notwithstanding, the gist of the article was . . . the Sea for people in the time of COVID. That is the link to the article. I’d been arranging to get to Mexico a few months back, but it’s not going to happen for a while.
All photos, John and Lucy Knape.

How nice to be in touch with your sister. She is brave being down there right now. The Corona Virus has me properly frightened right now. Yes, go down when the fear and virus are gone. What an adventure she is having.

Hey Will,
My guess is you know of this book already, but it if you go, take a copy of “The Log of the Sea of Cortez”, by John Steinbeck. Or, what the heck, pick it up and read it now!
