On August 15, Jimmy Smith (of the Backstreet Patio Grill at Al's Backstreet Cantina) will be opening a new restaurant.

The Blues Festival held by the Lions Club was the place to be on Saturday, April 19th. The weather was perfect, although sunscreen and shade umbrellas were a must if you were there all day long.

The bands were fantastic and the food and drinks were reasonably priced.

This will definitely be an event on my list of things to do next year.

Dr. Abasolo and Dr. Ramos did a great job repairing my 77 year old aunt this holiday season.

As we ventured south from our home in San Jose, California, my aunt announced that she had a painful lump in her belly. Suspecting it was a hernia, my mother took her to Dr. Abasolo. He announced that the lump was indeed a hernia and required immediate surgery.

My aunt's doctor could not perform the surgery for at least 3 days, and the surgery could not be done in San Felipe, so my mother, aunt, and Dr. Abosolo headed for Mexicali just before night fall where my aunt successfully had her hernia surgery at Santa Catalina hospital.

The next afternoon, my aunt was back in San Felipe and just as mobile (although a bit more sore) as she had been before the surgery.

Thanks to Dr. Abosolo and Dr. Ramos. I can't think of any doctor in California who would have immediately booked this type of surgery and then driven 2 hours to execute that surgery.

Note: San Felipe doctors will not bill your out of country health insurance. You will need to pay and then obtain reimbursement. Contact your insurance company to find out what their policies and paperwork requirements are. Then, make certain that the doctors and hospital can provide you with what you will need for reimbursement. Otherwise, you may want to return to your country for medical care.

A newer model truck sunk into the mud just south of Pete's Camp. Apparently the driver did not realize that much of the sand when the tide goes out is quicksand.

For a week afterwards, many vehicles attempted to salvage the truck with no success. Each day the truck sank further into the sand until it was completely claimed by the sea.

Today began the Baja 1000, starting in Ensenada and proceeding to San Felipe by November 16th.

Crowds in town have surged as every type of off road vehicle you can imagine is cruising around. By the weekend, we expect many more people. Many San Felipe residents have headed south for the weekend for better viewing of the race.
