Just received word there is a fire in el centro de Santa Rosalia.
Anyone have any more details?azucena - 8-12-2022 at 05:26 AM
Looks like only one residence was effected, which is very fortunate as many of the homes and businesses are made of wood in the downtown area where
the fire originated.KaceyJ - 8-12-2022 at 11:11 AM
1/2 of a block was destroyed
I'm hearing 7 families displaced
Thankfully no human injuriesSFandH - 8-12-2022 at 11:29 AM
I'm glad to hear the fire didn't burn the place down. It very well could have with all the old dried-out wooden buildings. A truly unique Baja town.
We go there about once a month during the winter for shopping and propane.Don Pisto - 8-12-2022 at 11:54 AM
santa rosalia was always what I imagined mexico to look like, wouldn't want to live there but love to visit. I find it amazing those old buildings
have survived as long as they have!SFandH - 8-12-2022 at 12:04 PM

I wonder what is used to keep the termites at bay.
We always drive into town, get some street tacos, and watch the goings-on. It's a busy place.
Two more months and we're back in BCS.RFClark - 8-12-2022 at 12:14 PM

but gratefully, no one was hurt.

It basically gives the address of the Abreojos fish shop in La Paz where dontation can be made from 9 to 3 pm weekdays and asks that everyone pass on
the word. "Today we help Santa Rosalia" with whatever we can.BajaBlanca - 8-13-2022 at 06:22 PM
I am sure you can go to any delegacion (police station) or DIF (family dvpmt Center) and drop off donations in Abreojos, Bahia Asuncion or La Bocana.
Think: setting up a kitchen from scratch! pots pans dishtowels dishwashing liquid laundry soap...KaceyJ - 8-13-2022 at 06:48 PM
