We made it through another Semana Santa and hopefully, not too many accidents or mishaps. I did receive a comment about a couple who were kayaking from Herfitinos and hadn’t been heard from since. Evidently, they are from El Dorado Ranch and I haven’t checked my email yet, so I’ll do that now and see if I received any more news. Their names are Frank & Bobbie Wheeler and if you have heard from them, please let us know. Evidently, their car and trailer are parked and fine, so hopefully, they decided to camp for a bit.

Another manic Monday and the beginning of yet another 40 hours in the bat cave. I hope that all who celebrate Easter had a nice day and were lucky enough to be with your families to watch the grand kids hunt for eggs. My daughter and grandson dyed the eggs last night and Desiree’ bought pink rabbit ears. I sure wish I could have been there. We were going to go to my sister-n-law’s house, but we had a great lead on a car so we have to go look at it. I woke up early yesterday and enjoyed a quiet cup of coffee and read some emails and posted Baja Belle. I checked my Power Ball and Mega tickets, so I guess laundry next and then we’ll go look at the car. I’ve decided to play the same numbers, rather than quick picks. One of these days, I’m going hit it; I just know it. So nice to hear the weather held out and now, if you are the least bit civic minded, you may want to go down to Rositas and see Martin and find out when and what time the garbage detail started. Sorry the Korner is so short today, but the good Lord didn’t want me working on Easter, so I took the entire day off, sort of. I have a gentleman who has written and he’s contemplating moving to Baja – whether it be on the Pacific side or here. If you can drop a comment or two about the good things we have, it will help me with my response. He’s thinking of opening a bar and grill, so if you give him advice on that – it would great.

Well it’s Good Friday today and for those practicing or recovering Catholics, yesterday was “Maundy Thursday” and this afternoon I asked a couple of guys if they knew it was Maundy Thursday and they had no idea what it was. I knew it was Holy Thursday (only because it’s during Semana Santa, but holy bat cave, I did not know it commemorates the last supper. Oh well, I hear the town is filling up and Sam Grubb tells me they’re working double time on the Malécon and it is looking good.

We got past hump day and we’re on the home stretch. There are larger graphics on the page today, so if you don’t have high speed, give it a little time to load. Happy Semana Santa in San Felipe and remember that Friday is good Friday, so you might find some offices closed, especially in Mexicali. Be careful driving in town, especially at night. There are a lot of people out on the highway who have had too much fun during the day and into the evening. I had to laugh when I was on my way back to the bat cave after lunch and saw this plastic bag in the tree. I just smiled because I immediately thought of San Felipe after a windy day and I had to take a photo.
