Ladies - get your groove going. Have you ever wanted to
stand up and sing at the Roadrunner on a Wed night yet had a
few fears, or wanted company. Come out and sing back up
chorus for me. This is a fun, folksy kind of song, you do
not need to read music, all voices are welcome, in tune and
out of tune. The point is to have fun. If interested,
please email me
alannahjantzen@gmail.com or stop by East Cape RV
resort #27. We will meet twice for rehearsals. Joy of the
day, alannah

Cabo San Lucas Circus. We went to the circus the other

have a 4 p.m. show, but not certain which days. You
definitely want to sit in the first or second row. John and

Exvotes(Retablos)and other Paintings
by
SEDDON WYLDE
I will be showing my new Exvoto Paintings at the Arts Festival
in Los Barriles on April 3rd.
This Mexican Folk Art is a tradition of giving thanks to
someone (usually a Saint) for a miracle (milagro).
My theme this year is animals! For example, the Rooster tells
the hen they must give thanks to the Virgin of Guadalupe for the
miracle that the farmer is a vegetarian. This painting is sold but
come see
what the cow, the dove, the whale and the goat have to be thankful
for!
I will also be showing my small watercolours and some paintings by
Jeff Heintzman.
