Bamboo shade

Al G - 6-25-2009 at 01:10 PM

I am in need 5-6' wide bamboo shades (6) to hang from my RV awning. I remember seeing them somewhere in San Lucas or La Paz, but I cannot remember where. Can someone help?

Home Depot maybe? They have them up here.

Thanks Paulina...I will check there tomorrow, but seem to remember specialty place maybe in La Paz. I would like to buy from a smaller vendor (hand made) if possible. There are so many out of work here...I would like to help the little bit I can.

Al - ask around for Jorge Rosas - nickname - transmission.
Lives over by Sol II Market on the North side of TS.

He's a palapero with a thriving business.
He also does bamboo gates / fences / etc...

He'd be your man to see about a bamboo shade deal and
he'd build it to your needs too..

Transmission has 28 kids (including grandkids)

Good luck

Many thanks vivaloha...maybe he is who I need for several things.
Have many friends in that area...wonder why I have not heard of him before.
I love the nick names here...my welders nickname is "bleach"
I think he drank some when he was young...
