Hello Everyone,
I hope that everyone had a fulfilling thanksgiving! As many of you may know me and my parents Jon and Lori from Rancho Leonero and know that I go to University in La Paz and have been so supportive and such great back bones through this process! I am just around the corner to finishing the semester and have a great project going on. I am doing a "Driving Travel Guide: Baja California Sur's Scenic Drive". It is geared to help out new and veteran drivers on getting to know the different places to eat, stay and visit along their journey. Here I have a series of surveys for each major city/town and then the general travel down good old' highway 101. Please if you can help me out with just 1 survey that would be very helpful! I really appreciate it and if you have any questions don’t be shy to ask, thank you.

THUMBS UP - ANSWERS - DISCUSSIONS

a.  I am recommending Ron, with Bajascreens@yahoo.com  . I emailed him for an estimate, and three days later, we have a beautiful screen door that matches our front door. He is totally professional and polite, as are his workers, and they build and repair window screens as well. Molly Banb. 

b.  Jimmy and I went to Sally-Sara's gallery today and I was amazed at everything she has. Not just art, but some wonderful t-shirts and cute shoes. Great things for gifts, such as beautiful note cards painted by Antonio Viveros and other artists. She is right next to Caleb's so wander in after breakfast or lunch. Chris White

                            Our local birds...........by John Spencer

Another common bird in our area is the Crested Caracara. A large vulture-like raptor, with long yellow legs that often walks on the ground in search of large insects, lizards and rodents. Will also eat carrion. A distinctive looking bird about 2 foot long, with a black crown and crest, white on sides of head and chin, throat and breast is a fine pattern of black and white. Bare skin in the face is a gray to red color and can be changed at will. The bill is white and heavy. Eyes are light gray-yellow color. When flying it's 4 foot wings are held flat, with 5 or 6 steady strong wing beats followed by a 8 to 10 second glide. In flight, note the white tail and the white tips of the black wings. Usually silent but sometimes makes a harsh grating rattle sound. Found in Mexico, Central America and southern Texas.
