FROM THE VENTANA.VIEW

Viewing the planet Mercury Tonight (Tuesday):. For the next few days, soon after sunset at 7:15 pm, Mercury, the planet closest to the sun, can be seen low in the west just to the upper right of bright Jupiter. Binoculars are helpful. Tuesday evening it will be about 2 degrees (finger width at arm’s length) from Jupiter at the 2 o’clock position.  About 7:55 pm Saturn will rise in the east. There is a raging storm on Saturn’s northern hemisphere that can be seen with a small telescope.

New Baja Yahoo Group - Hello Wonderful Baja Sur Gringos!
     I finally decided that enough is enough. We need a another group where we can
share other important info about La Paz, Baja Sur, and Mexico. This forum offers an opportunity for the straightforward sharing of information that other forums don't have the liberty to post, for fear of possible conflicts with the legal system.
     So here it is:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/veritasdelapaz/
     It became clear to me that there is a pent-up need for another outlet for
information sharing among the Baja Sur foreign community. Please come on over,
check it out, and contribute.

 ST. PATRICK'S DAY IN LOS BARRILES
                   Thursday, March 17th
 

 

Smokey’s Grill & Cantina invites one and all to get your Irish on this St. Patrick’s Day! We’ll be partying all day with great food & drink specials & plenty of green beer & jello shots. Be sure and try an “Irish Car Bomb” too.  We’ll be serving hearty Rosemary Beef Stew with salad & hot bread all day starting at 11:00 a.m. Also on special are grilled Johnsonville Beer Brats and Jumbo Chili-Cheese Dogs served with Fries & Coleslaw. FYI, Beer Brats and Chili-Cheese Dogs were invented in Ireland a few hundred years ago . . . . it’s true, look it up. We know the fries came from the French, not sure about the coleslaw.

Also, once again we will host “Crazy Tie Night” but this year, we are also introducing “Crazy Hat Night” for the gals with prizes being awarded to winners in a number of different categories that we will make up as we go.   

Better Still, Get your dance on with Live Reggae-Style Music & Fire Dancing performed by Bahia Beat! (You may have seen them perform during the Lord of the Wind Festival with all the drums). Show starts at 7:00 p.m. (no cover).

And if none of that interests you, please join us for “Smokey’s Chicken Crap Contest”. Buy squares on one of our huge boards for $50 pesos. We’ll have two rounds and the first square that “Smokeydoodledoo” or “Smokehorn Leghorn” craps on takes the dough. (We promise that no chickens will be harmed during this contest). 
Hope you find your backside at Smokey’s this St. Paddy’s Day!
