Non-Update from the Ha-Ha

The crew of Profligate, the mothership of the Baja Ha-Ha, are obviously having a terrific and care-free time during the ‘Barely Legal’ version of the 750-mile rally from San Diego to Cabo San Lucas. Here was this editor, patiently awaiting a status update from Assistant Poobah ‘Banjo Andy’ Turpin, when we heard through the office grapevine that he’d spoken to Subscriptions & Classy Classifieds Coordinator/Photo Goddess Annie Bates-Winship just a moment before. "They just started the final leg to Cabo early this morning," Annie reported, "and all he was worried about was whether the November magazines would be there when they arrived." Andy did mention that the fleet had been experiencing light winds for most of the trip and that there’d been no major breakages or emergencies. Guess this really is a case of ‘no news is good news’. Be sure to check out Friday’s ‘Lectronic as we expect a full update replete with photos.
