BOOK SIGNING IN BCS
Baja Books and Maps is pleased to announce a book signing in San Jose del Cabo at Ida Victoria Gallery Feb 18 from 11am to 5pm. CM Mayo and Bruce
Berger will be there, possibly Ann Hazard and Michael Mercer. Any of you Baja authors interested in participating, please contact
bajabooksite@yahoo.com.
CM Mayo will be giving a slide presentation. We are hoping to find a piano for Bruce.
We are working on a special rate with one of the hotels. Will announce that when definite.
The gallery will be showing the works of Andres Garcia Pe?a whose newest collection features 50's style travel posters of Los Cabos. Go to http://www.idavictoriaarts.com then artists, then his name to see a few of his paintings. We think that they will be a wonderful backdrop for
our Baja authors.

More authors will be there
Dick Russell, "Eye of the Whale" has agreed to come and Ann Hazard has definitely committed as well. This is going to be a wonderful event and I
hope that any of you in the area will come and meet these people who have written such beautiful words about Baja.
Osprey, can you make it down?

BajaJudy,
I just connected you to the gallery. I was there last year but didn't make the connection until I saw the website.
I don't know if it was you I talked to, (I was talking about that being a full-time RV'er I couldn't collect art like I used to), but I really enjoyed
the visit and will definitely be back; if only to look.
Thanks for the memories.

I am here

Book Banned in Todos Santos Author
T&T
I wish that were my gallery but Ida has generously offered her gallery for this book signing event. She also tells me that when the Garcia Pe?a
exhibit opens there will be more photos of his works on the website.
Michael Mercer is a definite yes now. He wrote the book "Banditos" which was banned by the book store in Todos Santos and the book "Mexicoland".

WOW
Jinx Schwartz has signed on for this event, too. Ed Vernon hopes to be here but Barbara is having surgery so it will depend on her recovery.
This is going to be a wonderful Baja happening. Sure hope that my nomad friends will be well represented.
We think that we have found a piano for Bruce Berger.
I will keep updating this post as others are included.
Feb 18 in San Jose!

Will post that information as soon as I know it. We have only had this on the books for 4 days so we are still in the planning stages, although we
are thrilled with the response that we have gotten so far from the authors.
Jim tells me that no nomad authors have reported in. Que pasa con eso?
We need to know what authors are coming so we can get their names on all the publicity.
I know that BCS is like a foreign country to some of you but "come on down"! It is presidents day weekend.
Still working on a cheap rate at one of the downtown hotels. If I cant find a DEAL will post all the info for all the hotels with telephone numbers,
email addresses and rates,etc.
Hasta

Great idea Judy,
The gallery looks beautiful. What a wonderful back drop for your Booksigning. Looks like you also have some new authors attending. That's fantastic.
Our 4th Annual Book signing and Wine tasting at Pyramid Resort will be May 6, 2006 For those of you who aren't able to make it to
Baja Sur you'll still be able to come meet your favorite authors at Pyramid Resort. Judy and Jim I know it's going to be a smashing success. Hope
you have as much fun putting it together as Bernie and I do. k

Baja Judy
Won't be able to make it this year BUT my new book should be out for your event next year and hope to make that one!
What you are doing is a lot of work but just getting the real Baja people together is so well worth it. Judy and Keri like book ends and that ain't
bad!
