I received my approval for media credentials from Score today so I will be able to interview some racers during the San Felipe 250 and take photos, so I’m pretty excited about that. I read in a Google alert this morning that Robby Gordon would be here pre racing next week and they also mentioned the 3rd Annual Tequila Festival in front of Baja Mar Restaurant, March 5, 6 and 7 beginning at 1:00 p.m. and just to remind every one – Natasha James will play 2 hours each day of the festival.
This is a thank you from Jeanene Steffen: “Hey Kat, It’s Jeanene Steffen. Was wondering if you would post thanks to folks who helped me out when I lost my wash at the Dolphin Wash a few weeks ago. If you’ve got time, I’d appreciate it! Many thanks (muchas gracias) to all those who helped me out when I lost (left) my wash at the Dolphin Wash a few weeks ago. I particularly want to thank my friends Teddy Merrick and Janet Zeller for listening to my cries of pain just after discovering my loss. I also want to thank those who gave me clothes to keep me covered - Donna Roberts for T-Shirts and more, Carol from “One of a Kind” clothing store who gave me two outfits, Caroline Harris (my neighbor who wasn’t even here and brought me clothes), Teddy Merrick for shopping for me in San Diego. Many thanks also to my pickle ball friends who mourned with Vickie and me who gave me a new pair of pants! And by the way, my clothes were returned to the Dolphin Wash a couple of weeks later and for that I am very, very grateful and humbled. The lovely senora that works there rewashed and folded them and returned them to me. Again, muchas gracias mi amigas!” All’s well that ends well.
The Celebration of life for Ray Lloyd will be held on Sunday at 1:00 p.m. on the terraza of Club de Pesca. Ray passed away quietly in his sleep and had been a resident of San Felipe for many years. He will be missed by many. This is a pot luck affair, so please bring your own plate and silver ware and a dish of something or an appetizer.
