you slow down a tad. This is a “show and tell” book that will remind you that you are missing out on a very unique part of Baja to the west as you zoom by El Rosario, seeking more of the Baja you’ve learned to love. Regardless of your personal favorite, one thing is certain; it has changed dramatically since you first discovered it. Don’t miss the opportunity to view some of the Baja coastline although threatened, still remains pristine by comparison: Perhaps, first by picking up a copy of Daniel Cartamil’s magnificent contribution about a relatively small, seldom-visited part of Baja’s west coast.
HOWEVER WE DID warm up to the view featured on the https:// www.bajaswildside.com/ as well as page 49 of the book.
Caps for Cancer Baja By: Annette Kaiser
What a great group of over 40 women who volunteer their time and talent to make caps, blankets, booties and ponchos for kids with cancer and heart disease in Mexico. This groups is growing rapidly and has donated over a thousand, hand-made articles to patients in Salviterra Hospital in La Paz, their Casa Valentina (like Ronald Mc Donald houses in the U.S.) In addition, donations have been given to the cancer clinic in Mexicalli and others on the mainland of Mexico. Last December, ladies from the East Cape held a rummage sale in La Riviera, which raised enough money to keep us in yarn for the next year, we hope! We have been fortunate to have numerous donations of yarn over the past year, which helps stretch our resources, for which we are grateful.. A number of artisans in the U.S have also donated a beautiful collection of hats and blankets for distribution. We are always looking for those who knit and crochet, to join our group. If you have an interest please consider attending one of our meetings. There is no charge for joining and yarn is provided free. Check on Facebook Capsforcancerbaja.
