was tasty and hot and the music awesome. I think everyone
had a good time dancing. Good job Patty!!! Don't forget to

Need a good housekeeper? I’ve found a very reasonable one
named Josefina. Josefina has her own transportation, speaks
English and is a honest hardworking housekeeper. Josefina
would like to have 2 more houses to clean. I will be hiring
Josefina to clean my Casa when we return in late October.
Josefina’s cell number is 624 164 7981. Consider giving her
a try. She is excellent once she knows what you want her to
do. She is a self starter, but likes to know your
preferences when she cleans your casa.

Classes by Pat Knipe offered through the Art Association:
One will be a beginners class designed to give the
basic techniques so that you will be able to take classes in
watercolor from whoever offers them. You will learn how to
apply paint, washes, brush technique, texture, masking,
glazing, color mixing, with many suggestions that will make
your approach to watercolor much easier. The cost of the
class is $20 or 240 pesos. I have enough supplies for 6
students which would increase the price to $25 or 300 pesos,
first 6 to request. The supply list for others is: a warm
and cool of each primary color, 1" flat, 1/2" flat, #10 or
12 and a #6 round brush, two quarter sheets of paper (140#
rag paper is best), 2 bull dog clips, and, of course, a
palette.
Date, time and place: March 22, 1pm to 4, Colina del Sol
Club House.
An intermediate/advanced class will be offered focusing
as always on composition and color but also introducing the
technique of milar lifts as a textural component. This
class will also be held at the Colina del Sol Club House on
Tuesday March 29th from 1-4pm. The price will be $20 or 240
pesos.
Either by e-mail or telephone, let me know if you want
to be put on the list. . (pknipe@hotmail.com)

QUESTIONS
a. Does anyone know what to do about still having our MX
visa because we didn't turn it in when we crossed via in our
vehicle in Tecate. What do we do with them now? We are
coming back via air in July and don't want any problems.
We just recently found out from our German friends that we
met in the baja that once you get in the US you are to walk
back into MX and turn in your visa and then walk back across
to the US. That was explained to them in their RV travel
book. The US border did not explain this to us.

RIDES
FOR PEOPLE, STUFF and CARAVANS
a. I have an approximately 3 x 5 foot collage of photos in
a wood frame with glass on the front. It is from my dad,
Togo Hazard's office and contains photos from all his years
in Baja. I would really like to have it on May 7th when we
do the celebration of his life at Hotel Buena Vista. If
anyone is heading south from San Diego between now and then,
and has room to take the collage, my family would be hugely
grateful. Please email me at
anapeligrosa@gmail.com if you can help out. iGracias!

ST. PATRICK'S DAY IN
LOS BARRILES
TOMORROW!THURSDY 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!
