Update on Char Wenger
Char went to the US on June 3rd for what was supposed to be a medical checkup. She was placed in the hospital and had emergency surgery on the 7th. Since that time she has been in the hospital all but a few days. Char has developed an infection and is currently in the intensive care unit in serious condition. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. The doctors expect her to make a full recovery, but it will be awhile until she is able to travel back to Los Barriles. At this time, Char is unable to receive any emails or phone calls. I will keep everyone updated on her condition on the BPE.
    I n the meantime, per Char’s guidance, the medical clinic and the dental clinic will continue to operate as usual. The emergency services improvement project will go forward as planned. If I can be of assistance, please fill free to contact me at the medical clinic (141-0797) or the dental clinic (141-0375).
     If anyone is going to the States in the next week or so, I need a package mailed to Char. If you would like to include a card or note to her please drop it off at the medical clinic and I will include it in the package.

Third Annual Festival D'Arte, La Paz - La Paz Six Begins Preparations for 3rd Annual Festival d’ Arte to be held Nov. 27, 2011, at Marina Palmira. The Coordinating Committee for the La Paz Festival D'Arte recently met to plan the 2011 event. Led by the La Paz Six, a civic-minded local group of artists here in La Paz, the next Festival is beginning to take shape.
     After two successful years, with help from the city of La Paz, local cultural organizations, as well some State Government officials, the Festival d’Arte has rapidly become a celebration of art and music for all to enjoy. The coordinating committee hopes to find ways to emphasize the beauty and fragility of the Sierra De La Laguna Biosphere as part of the fabric of this year’s celebration.
     Artists wishing to register for a booth, will follow the same procedure as last year. Registration Information will follow in subsequent announcements. Last year more than $3,000 USD was raised for local charities. - Kathy Bezy, Kathybezy@goldrush.com, Baja California Sur

NOTES REGARDING THE COSTA BRAVO FIRE

a.  I would like to express my sincere condolences to those who lost their lovely homes in Costa Brava Park.  To George and Betty, Kathleen and Mike, and to all those I did not know, I am heartbroken for you.  God Bless!   Joy McKerr

b.  I have been asked if there is going to be a clean up project?  Cheryl

THUMBS UP

a.  Update:  Baja Wok is a Great little place. Homemade noodles with fresh sauces.  Big bowls of food. Good prices. A little out of the way but worth the find !  Closed on Mon. See BPE # 1120  for link to menu & map.
Charlie in BV

b.  The Drugstore, Victoria, located in the same mall as the Comex paint store and laundrymat , is having a hard time staying in business.  I love this store. His prices are lower than Cabo and some are half the price of other drugstores in town. If you are a loyal customer he will give you even more of a discount. He also special orders health products like agave sweeteners, decaf green tea or whatever is you can't find in town. He really makes an effort to get what you need. For those of you that have to take daily medicine, Please go try out Farmacia Victoria. I think you will be surprised at their prices and quality,  They also deliver to your home.

I already have a working telephone in and reliable fast internet is pretty critical to me. It’s possible that those 3 words, “reliable fast internet” should not be used in the same sentence when referring to Baja or Los Barriles so I decided to ask the locals there what they’ve found works best, who to contact and any pricing details you can help me with.  I appreciate your help and input and look forward to meeting everyone :-)   I can be reached at larryeh@gmail.com  Thanks in advance  Larry
