For those living in Cabo county, you can now pay your taxes online. Just paid our using a US credit card..
http://www.eloscabos.gob.mx/

==============================

You can use Canadian credit cards, it will be almost impossible to find a place that will take CAD (Canadian Dollars) currency.
CAD have to exchanged for USD or MXP (Mexican Pesos). They can use their Canadian credit cards at any store.
VISA, MasterCard, etc. We would recommend to have a couple of backup credit cards or payment options.
Canadian credit cards can be used with the Mexican ATM's with their respective limit amounts per day and of course,
the ATM's fee per transaction. It is highly recommended to exchange the CAD into USD before arriving/flying to Mexico.
(specially if you are coming to Baja).

RE: Sharing Dish Network Accounts

Per a recent post in the BPE asking to share a Dish Network satellite TV account with a separate receiver, please be aware that Dish Network can and will audit accounts with more than one receiver not connected to the same US-based telephone line. If they suspect an account, they will shut off the receivers and then wait for the account holder to call. They are transferred to the Equipment Verification department, who will then ask for information to be read off the screens for each of the receivers. This may be difficult to do if the receivers are located in another house, or country.

Once the receivers have failed "the test," they are then marked in Dish Network's system, and must be registered for separate accounts. We have heard from a number of people who have been audited recently. Better to have your own, separate account. - Alan, alan@BajaSatellite.com

Thanks to all the participants who came out New Year's day to join in Club Rotario de Cabo Este's Run In The New Year. It was a great morning for the run and the post-run breakfast around the Pool at East Cape R.V. Resort was enjoyed by all. Thanks also to our sponsors, Postal Annex, Coldwell Banker Real Estate and of course East Cape R.V. and Awesome Sportfishing for their support. We were fortunate to have a large number of non-Rotarians help with the production of the Run, including the local Policia and of course the advertising on our own Baja Pony Express, which provides such a great service to us all.
My personal thanks to everyone.
Bill Barbour, Event Chairman.

There’s a new gallery in Todos Santos and it’s time to celebrate!

The artists of Casa Catalina y Galeria, and owner Catherine Edwards, invite you to attend our official Gallery Grand Opening on Thursday, January 14, 2010 starting at 7PM. Six of Todos Santos’ well established artists have joined forces with Catherine to create a comprehensive collection of high-quality fine art and crafts. Formerly Casa Juanita, the gallery has long been known for selling the finest in mountain pottery, as well as, works by Catherine and several other artists. Now, Diane Knight, Tori Sepulveda, Margy Woodall, Roxanne Sparks, Gloria Santoyo Ruenitz and Mike McAllister have expanded Casa Catalina y Galeria into a wonderful new space that more than doubles the size of the shop.

With approximately fifty paintings in various media on exhibit, the gallery offers a wide choice of styles, media and price. You’ll see Diane Knight’s dramatic acrylic pieces that vibrate with the colors and textures of Mexico. Tori Sepulveda, the mistress of all things horses, shows horse portraits and many depictions of the classic horsewomen of Coronela, as well as, several portraits of beautiful Mexican women. Margy Woodall’s paintings of the everyday life and beauty of the Baja grace many collectors’ walls both here and in the United States. Roxanne Sparks, known for her jewel-like small acrylic and pastel paintings, delightfully depicts the hidden corners and paths of the Baja lifestyle. Gloria Santoyo Ruenitz, master of the unusual and seldom seen encaustic wax painting method, exhibits her works filled with the joys, sorrows and lives of primarily Mexican women which hold universal truths for all of us. Mike McAllister, known for his rich pastels and a wide variety of subjects, continues to provide images that evoke good memories and timeless beauty.

Join us on Thursday, January 14, 2010 from 7PM until 9PM for refreshments, a large selection of fine art and the opportunity to meet and talk with the artists of Casa Catalina y Galeria. All work will be for sale. For more information contact Gloria Santoyo Ruenitz at gruenitz10@yahoo.com  or Tori Sepulveda at oscarntori@yahoo.com.
