Surfing in Baja

Matt with bananas

It’s all in a day’s work here in Baja…at least for Matt and me. Machetes abound as the tool of choice for most anyone looking to get work done around here, so when it came time to cutting down the limb of a banana tree in our yard, what better … Continue reading →
