- Plenty of Sand Dunes after driving out for 30 minutes to the East or West (if you are into riding dirt bikes, quads, ATVs and that sort of thing...or just like to pretend you're on Tatooine :-)
- Mexicali, Mexico is about 10 minutes away across the border (it's the capital of Baja California, so there's plenty to do down there, restaurants, shopping, etc.)
- San Felipe, Mexico is about a 3 hour drive away on the new highway they have (great fishing, or just a fun trip renting a beach house and soaking up some sun and enjoying good food)
- Plenty of great Mexican restaurants :-)
- Our winters are beautiful (hardly dips lower than 40F and today is about 80F with a clear blue sky)
- Minimal commute time
I just want to plant the seed and see if anyone might be interested in being in that sort of environment.
Since we don't have our own startup community, we can either do it ourselves with our local resources (which could take a long time) or I'm hoping with this post I might be able to jumpstart it and see if I can get a few of you interested in heading South (we already have plenty of Canadians that come down here during the winter time and temporarily balloon our population).A few additional links to look at:
