Hi: We are moteling our way down to Los Barriles in January and are looking for a reasonable, "pet friendly", motel in Constitucion. There used to be an RV park that had rooms available also, run by an Austrian couple at the north end of town. Does anyone know if it is still open? We plan to stay two nights as we want to make a day trip out to Mag Bay. Have appreciated the info regarding motels in San Quintin and Loreto. Any info would be helpful. Thanks, Patti pattikw@frontiernet.net

NEWS FROM TODOS SANTOS

First call for all TS and area Photographers – ARTS juried Photo Show
ARTS (Artists of Todos Santos) is excited to announce our 1st annual juried photography show at Cafelix in Todos Santos starting Feb 4th. In order to make this more of a community event, we have decided to make this show open to everyone who lives in TS, or in BCS in general. All work will be juried by 2 experienced US judges who are coming to Todos Santos for this event. There are two categories – one being photos taken in, and representative of Baja California Sur, and the other being open to any photo. Prizes will be awarded for the best in show for both categories, together with awards for the winner and two runners up. All accepted work will be displayed in Visions gallery; however, only work submitted by people legal to sell their work in Mexico will be offered for sale. We are looking forward to a big response from the community. To help us plan for the event, first download the rules and entry form from this website www.artistsoftodossantos.com (look under ARTS Events in the menu for the photo show article and link), and then e-mail us ASAP to indicate your intent to participate with the expected number of photos and their sizes.
Many thanks, Vic Kirby

RIDES FOR PEOPLE, STUFF and CARAVANS

a. The cover for my 5th wheel has disintegrated and I need to get another one to Alejandro Verdugo in Los Barriles. If anyone is driving down and can take a new one to him that would be greatly appreciated. The box is about 2 feet by 2 feet and weights about 20 lbs. If you can help, I will have Camping World ship the box directly to you. They won't ship to Mexico, and I'm uncertain if a box mailed from the US will actually get there.

The whole body is represented in the feet. Your feet represent the water energy, which goes
deep and seeks out the foundation of things. The feet are the most negative pole of the entire
body and because of this fact many negative energy blocks are found in the feet. The pain
and discomfort in these areas could be manifesting or warnings of chronic health conditions.
By stimulating and reflexing certain points on your feet and hands the body can be restored to its
natural healthy state.
