who want to learn a valuable skill, and also tour the 6 in process
alternative buildings here at the same site.
Come play in the mud. Randy Echter rke1951@gmail.com  612-154-0485
(I asked where is San Juan de Los Planes is and here is the answer:
San Juan de Los Planes is the actual name here that's on the official
map of the area....
So we are here near Los Planes, as it's commonly referred to,.... 1/2
hour south of La Paz, south of La Ventana- El Sargento, near the Sea
of Cortez. Not sure where the other towns of the same name would be.

a. Re: Beware Of False Pricing - The location in San Quintin -turn right at last gas station with the minimart - it's signed with $750 MN on a large billboard, called Hotel Santa Maria if memory serves me, is $500 MN plus tax. Lots of hot water, great beds, clean rooms with A/C and heat, Sat TV, wireless in lobby, and it accepts pets. One wing is open, service is friendly, it's the La Pinta of old with upgrades. We enjoyed it and were pleasantly surprised to find it less than advertised; a bargain at the price. - Sabrina Lear, sanjoseinfo@gmail.com , San Jose Del Cabo
(I wrote to Sabrina and she said the parking was "safe"  Cheryl)

b. Better Bargain - In response to the high prices of the old La Pinta in San Ignacio, I highly recommend staying with Terry and Gary Marcer at San Ignacio Springs http://www.ignaciosprings.com/  (on your way into town), The accommodations are great and a wonderful breakfast is included. We've been going there for years. - Karen Alvarado, tootsiebiggirl@hotmail.com,  Baja California Sur

QUESTIONS

a. Does anyone out there in Ponyland know where I can buy "ear candles"....I have a friend who needs them. Also, does anyone know if the frozen wheat grass juice is still available anywhere in the area? I looked at Mega the other day where I had bought some last year and couldn't find it....thanks.... jackie1@gorge.net

b. Looking for a guitar teacher in Los Barriles..Beginner group lessons would be great also.
Thank You Patty, pattyh769@gmail.com

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS

a. In response to the recent request on the BPE for an evening yoga class....I was just thinking the same thing! So, there is at least one person interested in yoga in the late afternoon-evening...let's say from 5-6:30pm....are there any other people who may consider this once or twice per week? just an informal survey to see if it would be worth offering a class at this time....you can email me personally at jackie1@gorge.net  thanks!

b. Further to cost, etc. of DESERT INNS; on our trip back in October, we stayed at Catavina and enquired about discounts, because we also do not have their own card, and asked about one for having an FM3. The guy behind the desk didn't know what that was, so I showed him and said Mexican Resident, and he gave us a 20% discount from the posted rate.

c. Re: The Desert Inn (formerly La Pinta).....
Yes, we used our card last night at Guerrero Negro. Room cost with card was $50.00 USD. There was a sign in the room that said that dogs were not welcome in the room. We did have a dog with us on previous trips and it was no problem. Maybe they are changing their dog policy.
