East Cape Dental Clinic Announcement
Thanks to the generous contributions of our sponsors, Drs. Bill Blatchford, John Wayland, and Justin Wu, we now have the capability for full mouth digital panoramic X-Ray. This will aid in our dental extraction program on Feb 21, 22, 23. Open to the general public with emphasis on helping our East Cape Children. Now is the time to take care of those bothersome wisdom teeth or preparation for more extensive work that requires tooth extractions. For more information and appointments please call 141-0375 or stop by our clinic #1 Plaza del Pueblo.   Thanks for your continued support. 
East Cape Dental  
===================================

Weather-conditional weekly game of beach ultimate trying to get started. Need interested men, women and kids to get in touch. Please email frisbarriles@gmail.com
(I had to ask what is beach ultimate -- answer:   It's a game sort of like flag football except you play with a frisbee and you can't tackle anyone, you can only intercept the frisbee. )  Check it out at:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_%28sport%29
====================================

Baja Sky Tonight -- Saturday, February 9:   Mercury-Mars conjunction.  Last night, the planets Mercury and Mars were 1/2 degree apart-- about the width of the moon-- low in the west about half an hour after sunset.  Tonight they will be 1 degree apart as Mercury moves east away from the setting sun for a week, and Mars moves west towards it.  With a clear, level horizon, sunset is around 6:12pm tonight. However, if you have mountains to the west, sunset will be closer to 5:45pm. I was able to spot Mercury about 6:35pm, 50 minutes after sunset, low in the west just above the mountains in El Sargento. I needed binoculars to find Mars just below at the 7 o'clock position. Mercury set at 6:48pm. It should get easier to find for a week or two. Most people have never seen the planet because it never gets far from the sun. New Moon is Sunday 20 minutes after midnight. On Sunday evening, the 18-hour-old new moon will set in El Sargento around 6:21pm. It will have only a sliver of a crescent. If there are no clouds, you might have a chance of spotting it between 6:10 and 6:20pm.     Tom S.

COMMUNITY MARKET  -  Saturday, February 2nd
 

a.  Copper River Designs will be showing the latest jewelry designs at the Los Barriles Community Market this Saturday.  See you there!  Chris

b. Fresh smoked Yellowtail (Jurel). Just finished smoking it last night with Hickory & Mesquite. Stop by and try Paty's Smoked Jurel dip. We will also have Jurel Empanadas and some Baja & Valentines cards. Thanks L & P

THUMBS UP - ANSWERS - DISCUSSIONS- This category must have name and/or email address.

We bought a couch, chair, and love seat at San Diego Furniture. Unfortunately the leather on the couch could not weather the Baja Sun and heat .(pardon the pun) The leather came apart. We called San Diego Furniture and they replaced the fabric on all the furniture at no charge. Including picking it up and delivering it back to us. Highly recommend them.  (unsigned)

b.  From many pieces comes one.  This antique chair came to us in many pieces, even some missing. Arturo and his crew of "Barrilito Express" took it and in a week & a half returned to us looking like this.

QUESTIONS - Come on team, when you're ask a good question, share the answer. 

a.  We may drive south from San Felipe on our drive to the East Cape in a few weeks.  We’re thinking to cross at Calexico/Mexicali.  From our experience Tecate is less rigorous than San Ysidro/ Tijuana; I’d appreciate any info on how tough the Mexicali crossing is.
Ron: rpaitich@gmail.com

b.  Via the Ventana View:  Wanted......General information, experience or suggestions for a 2001 Ford Van, E-350 with a Triton 5.4L motor that Blew Out spark plug # 3 on the passenger side of the motor. After some internet research I've learned that this is a known problem with this motor but it would be helpful to talk to someone with some first hand knowledge if possible. It will need to be repaired here in Baja before it can be driven back to the states. Larry Russ gorgemusic@yahoo.com
