a.  San Diegan Hiking Baja Peninsula - Mike Younghusband And "Don Kay" Passing Through Todos Santos - Just another Baja adventure for a man, his burro and two dogs. Keep an eye out for this little group passing through Todos Santos and Pescadero today and tomorrow on their way to their destination, Cabo San Lucas.
Mike left San Diego on foot, October 01. He’ll cover approximately 1,500 miles with his burro, Don-Kay, ant two dogs, 9-year-old Max, a Chihuahua-dachshund mix, and Rusty, a 4-year-old Jack Russell terrier.

b.  8th Annual Festival de Cine de Todos Santos - Marzo/March 4 - 7, 2011, Teatro Manuel Márquez de León (Todos Santos)  Proceeds benefit the Youth in Video Project www.todossantoscinefest.com/youth_in_video.html.

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

HANDY HINT #1:  CELL PHONE SPEAKER SYSTEM. If you do not have a land phone this may work for you.  I do not  want to haul it around with me at home, so a baby monitor with a couple of speakers placed where you are most of the time will work. Now, I leave my phone next to the monitor and can hear my phone ringing anywhere I want in my house or outside.

#2  If the ice cream in your freezer hangs out for a while, LOL, store the container upside down so frost crystals will not form on it.
=============================================
