Feb. 14 is "Día de San Valentín" in Baja


If you're heading south on Friday Feb. 14, it's "Día de San Valentín"- a day to celebrate friendships and love.

Pack some some extra chocolates or other goodies for people you meet along the way at checkpoints, gas stations and other places.

It's a good day to be friendly and share some treats.





\"Probably the airplanes will bring week-enders from Los Angeles before long, and the beautiful poor bedraggled old town will bloom with a Floridian ugliness.\" (John Steinbeck, 1940, discussing the future of La Paz, BCS, Mexico)

It really is so much fun to greet everyone. Wish we could spread this cheer to all the corners of the Earth, every day.

And always remember, life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by those moments that take our breath away.
