My how time flies.  I meant to get back to you with a Friday afternoon update, but I had to run to a meeting.  So, from Cesar at the Ranch: “Oh almost forgot I was reading one of your posts today and we still have live music at Juanitos Cantina on Thursdays night, Friday night we have karaoke, Saturday night we have Live music, and Sunday morning we have live music at the Pavilion.” Also from Cesar: “Haven’t been in touch in a long time I’ve been busy but now I have some time to bother you now. I have some exciting news for you.   Chuy & The Sing out Sisters are going to be appearing every Friday night @ Juanitos Cantina for the month of august. So let everyone know. I hope to see here some time soon.”

And in answer to my question regarding tomorrow’s swap meet: “Yes the swap meet is still going on every Saturday morning from 7am to 10am come down and bring lots of people with you we really need the support.” Tonight at the Jollymon from sistawife:  “Derek is playing at JollyMon, Denny Jim Manning are sitting in and Hal is going to at a touch of nostalgia with his classic standards.  tomorrow night Tavo’s Revolution is at Georges in the Parking Lot.

Update:  Don’t forget about open mike nite at Jollymon.  I wish they had a bus from town out there and back because I really wanted to go, but I have night blindness and it makes it hard to see.  Too bad; I had a song ready ja ja.

Luis and I went together to run errands before we drove out south.  I just lost two really long paragraphs I wrote and I don’t have a clue how I did it.  I do remember I wrote about my pleasant surprise to see the Desert Mothers and mentors painting the shop downstairs in La Plazita, where they will be showing their art work.  Hopefully, if you come to visit or if you live here, you’ll support these women who are very talented and they’re cool because they are now in La Plazita.

I am having technical problems with my program, which has made it impossible to post.  Please be patient and check back as I should have the problem fixed by tomorrow.  In the mean time, I invite you to check out our YouTube Chanel by clicking the Media tab or videos and the photo galleries.  I’m hoping to change my format a bit and write a few more editorials.  Again, I apologize for the time lapse in posting, but yo no tengo la culpa (it’s not my fault).  I must post this before this program crashes. More tomorrow.

“Hi Kat…It’s the Baja Boys last night at the Jolly Mon this Thursday. We are taking a heat break and in early September and will start again. Hope our friends will stop by for a beer and BS…Same for La Vaquita..Viva La Musica in San Felipe…Keep cool…Jim” and it’s Alfreda Barber’s birthday 28 July; if you haven’t seen this Hummingbird documentary, it’s incredible photography and you may view that here.

Good morning San Felipe.  It’s going to be another “warm” day in San Felipe and an even warmer day in El Centro.  What a shock getting off the plane dressed in three sweaters.  It was nice for about five minutes.  I told you I would post the photos of Mike’s Sky Ranch that Shawnee and Bill took.  For those of you who don’t know where it is – you drive as if you’re going to Ensenada (at the soldier stop) and there will be a sign that says “Mike’s Sky Ranch” where you’ll turn left. On their way up to the ranch, they ran across wild horses.  Photos by Shawnee.

I am having a very hard time keeping a connection, so I will finish Sunday’s post when I return to San Felipe this afternoon.  If you’re in town or want to see me, I’ll be at La Plazita at 10:00 a.m. on Monday morning.  I’m going to Costco as soon as it opens (it doesn’t open until 10:00 a.m.) and Wallyworld for dog food, then I’ll be on the road to San Felipe.  Have a great Sunday.
