We went over to Len’s house of “Chenoweth” fame.. and he opened up his Chenoweth museum to us down the street!

Some of this is his house the big pool is at the museum. All the garages are at his house. His solar array is impressive to say the least at his house.

Took about an hour to upload these photos.. lol. This place is awesome. They have a bar upstairs and they donate all the money to the kids schools. Right now they are working on raising money to put a roof on one. Three schools need roofs I heard..

Life don't Suck!!!!

It came real close to sucking yesterday.. the kids wadded their RZR in the ocean and the girl was strapped in underwater.. Jeff, Rob and myself got her out... but it was close.. like real f’n close.

Nobody got hurt so everything ended ok.. but while it was happening it was the shit nightmares are made of 😳

Sorry to hear about the near tragedy... You are blessed to have an angel watching out for your kids...

Get back in that seat and enjoy the rest of the trip and shake it off

As a parent still scary I'm sure... glad you avoided the personal scare.

Did you guys have a RZR bon fire? [emoji38][emoji1787]

no we recovered it, and the guys pulled the plugs and got oil in it etc.. they will have it running in a few hours I’d imagine.. The guys are pretty handy and are pretty hardcore off-roaders

After we got her out we flipped it back over and pulled it out of the ocean.. then it took 2 sxs’s to tow it home.

Glad you all made it out ok!... That's the only issue with Mexico, is that if you are unrestrained by rules and the constant fear of cops pulling you over, you are left to decide where the edge is all on your own. That kid found it, made it out unscathed, and will probably never step over it again. Experiences most of us older guys have all had the luxury of going through and living to tell about it.

I am pretty sure they are harvesting the Corbina where the Colorado River enters the gulf right now... Look for the dirt roads cutting across the salada about mile marker 77 off Hwy 5 to the east when you are driving home. It's right past the dunes on the way back. If you see trucks coming and going out there they are full of Corbina which is pretty good!

The guys already got the RZR up and running.. they are going on oil change number three right now, but it’s pretty much good to go. 🤪. We will be back at it shortly. 😆

We once recovered a friend’s sunken Conquest at Powell and had it running again in about 12 hours. But, I would think the salt water would be a bitch on many aspects of that RZR.

Honestly rzr’s are pretty water proof.. All the electrical connections from the factory are water tight etc.. The one that flipped is already up and running. His after market accessories switches are gonna need to be replaced along with his stereo, but it isn’t as big of a deal as you would think it is so long as you get all the water out of it on the quick.

You gotta remember people put snorkel kits on these things and run them just shy of roof deep in swamps etc around the country.

Happened when he put the bow on the beach after dark and on a steep incline. Water level came up allowing water to enter thru the bulge pump discharge on the stern corner of the boat. The boat was almost new. Upon inspection we discovered the bilge pump discharge line had been installed without an anti syphon loop.

Was doing pretty good for awhile, but you aren’t going to Mexico and not drinking XX and tecates hombre..

I’m aware Da’vid (read in Spanish accent) :).

I didn’t swear off drinking 2 weeks before a trip to Mexico.

Enjoy, and get back to it!

Went on the course for a bit and ended up looking for this giant mine.. we gave up, as it turns out, when we were pretty close to it.. lol

After this set of pics we head back to the ocean! I only posted a few of the pics because it basically looks like Havasu.. lol
