I have been going the last couple weekends. And to answer your question, NO. The only question I get that is different than a normal question. " can I see your face? " in other words remove your mask.
When I come back to the USA After this weekend, if I get the question what was your reason for being in Mexico. I plan on saying to flee all the violence in the USA.

Questions on going across the border
Hey thank you for posting this. I plan to go next week. My question is when you cross the border, does the border patrol asked if you have been quarantined or showed any signs of the virus.

So, if you already know somebody, it's a good time to visit. Traffic is light and the motels are open. I've gone once a week for the last four weeks. My only gripe is that none of my favorite restaurants are open for sit-down service.

And I I'm only count half the beer since I would drink half as much at a american bar. Then I saved on hotels, altogether after what I saved I probably spent 50 dollars a visit. It's also much easier to get a happy tinder experience especially if the girl has no visa, my lack of wealth won't be apparent to her.
Doesn't sound cheap to me. Seems like good times. I wish I was in San Diego five months per year. In fact, if that was the case, I'd save a crapload of money on rent and just get a place in Tijuana instead of Man Diego. Not even factoring in food and other living expenses, the savings on monthly rent would cover the expense of 20 escorts a month give or take depending on your taste. I also wouldn't need the hassle and all the expenses associated with a vehicle. It's amazing how cheap Uber is in Mexico whether that's Tijuana, CDMX, Mexicali, Vallarta or some other city.

What is "BJ Queen"? Is that a nickname for a chica your knew, or did you mean Queens Tijuana Escorts?

Yes but I lived there & not for the purpose of "Mongering"

If you knew me, you would understand. BTW some people from MX cross the border 5 times a week for work. Sentri helps. I think you will see a lot open by July 1st. Hotel girls are open now. Not cheap.

Hargrow comes to mind. Seems that he went several times a week sometimes.

Why would you need much more than 3 years straight for 700 trips?
Using my third grade math.

While Covid is on everyone's mind, let's keep this forum alive with what it is intented for, sharing info and experiences of mongering. All who opine about data and share links of virus news are, at best, guessing. It's Novel for a reason. How it will play out will be determined in time. For those who are not concerned, that is perfectly fine. For those who are concerned, that is also perfectly fine. All a matter of choice. But leave the covid news (and its political opinions) out. We all have access to info and will seek it out ourselves.
If you're able to go hunt, please send us some reports, pics, etc. If you're locked down share some interesting old trip reports.
Happy Hunting.
OK. Fair enough.
I drove down yesterday. I sailed though the SY crossing. The guards were just standing around, and I don't recall seeing anybody pulled into the inspection areas.
Traffic in Tijuana is lighter than usual, but it is picking up week over week. I drove over to the LOS Alamos area and picked up the BJ Queen. We then proceeded to our favorite motel and spent the next 4+ hours in the jacuzzi and bed.
When I returned I crossed via Otay. There was a 20 minute wait, for some inexplicable reason. Maybe a shift change, but they seemed to be taking a long time for each car. Until about 4 cars ahead of me. Then they started moving rapidly. The drug sniffing dog was being taken through other lanes. The agent simply asked if I had anything to declare, didn't even take my card, and waved me through.
So, if you already know somebody, it's a good time to visit. Traffic is light and the motels are open. I've gone once a week for the last four weeks. My only gripe is that none of my favorite restaurants are open for sit-down service.

Back in 2006 another monger (who visited daily 5 days a week when he would complete his graveyard shift) visited La Zona, driving in daily everyday at 8:30 AM. His Tijuana Amigos handle was JTULL2 and he introduced me (during the two years we hung together) to more than a dozen other mongers that were in LZ on nearly a daily basis. Some I no longer see in La Zona, others I still regularly see there when I visit. I probably go to La Zona five or six times a year (average trip length 4 or 5 days long) and some of these dudes I touch base with on every trip down. Many keep regular rooms at Leyva or HDS that they rent on a monthly basis, yet they have regular jobs & homes in San Diego County.

Would you like to try to rephrase this again LOL?
