b.  SECURITY ALERT: It's that Stealing Time of Year again. Especially as the contest nears, more and more unfamiliar folk will be in our wee pueblo. Don't be timid about eyeballing people who are wandering around looking lost. You have a right to be here, you have a right to keep the property you brought with you, and you have a right to diplomatically protect your serenity and stuff. If you don't recognise someone as part of the local/seasonal population, and they're genuinely lost visitors, maybe offer to steer them in the right direction. Last year, someone walked off with Baja Joe's giant plasma screen TV from the main kitchen during contest week. Let's not continue to be a rewarding stopover on the milk-route of thieves. TM

after arriving home in Canada, our previous Campground neighbors (Michelle and Kevin) was writing me about the following incident that had happened on their trip back north driving through Tecate. I think it is worth sharing increase awareness for people travelling north: Karola

"One thing we wanted to pass along was an experience in Tecate. We thought it was the typical cop wanting money but when we thought about it it may have been something different. We got pulled over and told we hadn't stopped at the stop line. We denied it and requested him to write a ticket. I got out of the truck to look for a plate number for his motorcycle (there was none) and get his name and number (he had a name tag but no number). Kevin got out to ask him to show us where he had failed to stop. At that time the "cop" gave up, returned our license and left. The difference with this incident was he kept wanting us to follow him to the police station rather than just trying to get some money. We wonder now if he really was goingto have taken us to the police station or maybe somewhere off the main road where his buddies were waiting? Anyway, we just thought we would pass it along as a heads up. The road to Tecate is almost finished and in good shape so it was a good route to follow."
=================================

Artists please contact Elizabeth Perkins at 624-142-8013 or cell 624-125-7120 edesignsbaja@aol.com  to register and put your name on the map. This will be a great opportunity to find the perfect Valentine's Day present and support art in our local schools. Kathy

Do you miss going to the movies? Miss seeing new release films and long for a night out? EAST CAPE RECYCLING BAJA will be providing new release movies under the stars on the ‘big screen’ beginning this Saturday, January 21, and as often as we can bring you first run movies. Bring your low back chairs, maybe a blanket, your to-go cocktails or a cold cooler of beer (no glass please), to the pool terrace at the East Cape Casas & RV Resort for our first film “MONEYBALL”, starring Brad Pitt, based on the true life story of Oakland A’s baseball manager Billy Beane and his unconventional baseball recruiting system by drafting has-beens, untried rookies, broken bodied players to compete with the rich teams. Movie will start at 7 pm, please arrive early enough to set up and get comfy. A $50 peso (or more J) suggested donation will help the East Cape Recycling Baja efforts to grow and expand to create a more sustainable future. Bring your friends, family or make it a date night – see you there! East Cape Casas & RV Resort is located in the heart of town across from the Modelorama, turn at the sailfish. Questions? New release movie suggestions? at lynnmirassou@gmail.com  or combertheresa@hotmail.com

While in Los Barriles over the weekend for Lord of Wind, someone stole my husband's truck keys, belt, cash and wedding ring right our of his pockets after the beer pong party at Loco Rico's on Sunday night.  If anyone sees someone wearing these items, please have them get in touch with us right away!
His wedding ring is flat stainless steel with a slit throughout that comes together in the middle and tensions a small diamond. This is a piece of jewelry we bought in Oregon from a German designer and probably cannot be replaced. The belt was probably a size XL black with a large modern belt buckle which contains a flat bird with head to the side in metal and black.  We are lucky the keys didn't say Dodge and the key fob wasn't programmed because they would have stolen our lifted 04 Dodge and all the irreplaceable contents inside. The key fob doesn't say anything on it, but the grey aftermarket key says Stratec. I am saddened that someone would do this when we were in town volunteering for Roadrunner Cafe at their booth on the beach the whole weekend. A massive inconvenience and an even bigger personal violation!  Please call 624-131-5069 if you have any information. Reward will be offered upon return of the much needed items.  Thank you,  Laura & Patrick Koch
