This is your final reminder that the spring version of the Fall Fashion Fiesta from last year, which turned out to be one of the most talked about afternoon events of the year and attended by over 250 people, is taking place tomorrow, Monday April 8th at 1:00 PM at the Playa Bonita Resort’s Puesta Del Sol Terrace Restaurant.
On the north side of 13th Street between Luis Encinas and Benito Juarez is Erick Burger. You’ll recognize it by the creative bar stools that are real western saddles mounted on thick springs so’s you can rock back and forth if the mood hits you, but strong enough that you won’t rock too far back and forth and get bucked off…
Standing at the beach front of the Sonoran Sky Resort, I shake the sand off my shoes and wipe the salt from my face. It’s been a good day. A good run. I’m pleased with the settling of my heart rate and the slight burning in my quads. Today was my long run, twenty miles on the beach, and it was…
After being blown away by last year’s premier presentation of pure and colorful Mexican Folkloric music, singing and dancing, it’s hard to believe how it could be topped this year. However, after speaking with Martín Martínez, head of the organizing committee again this year along with Laura Palacio and Carmen Martens, we’re convinced that everyone is in for a night of spectacular…
Our announcement last month about the May 25th date for this year’s 2nd Annual Las Vegas Night for Charity hinted that this gala event would be even bigger and more exciting in its second year due to the overwhelming success of last year’s party. And we do mean party!
Now that planning has kicked into gear, the details are getting pretty exciting. Last year’s gala…
From tamales swaddled in corn husks at Christmas, to the spirit welcoming celebration, El Dia de los Muertos, Mexico is a country steeped in tradition. With its tradition laden history, Puerto Peñasco was the natural place to begin customs of my own. Perhaps it was the warm moist air that drew them out of me, or perhaps Puerto Peñasco was just that special place that begged to…
One of the most illustrative examples of such a Mexican roadside diner is El Pollo Pápago located on Benito Juárez just south of the Burger King across the street from Dulcería Lupita. If you’re in the mood for rotisserie chicken, El Pollo Pápago, have racks spinning and searing chickens from 11:00 AM until 7:00 PM daily…
When we were younger, running around Rocky Point (or any other unfamiliar vacation site) we risked our lives on quads and forced our trucks up sandy mountains until they almost rolled over and other crazy, injury-prone antics we performed in the name of adventure. Some of us were lucky enough to make it through those days, others made it with nominal to serious injuries, their friends and relatives wondering if they
Carlos and Michelle Hopkins have been running the Puerto Peñasco branch of their 30 year old family owned restaurant supply business now for about five years. They built a solid reputation among locals, visitors and chefs supplying food and supplies to restaurants all over town from their former warehouse facility near Josefa and Benito Juarez.
Adapting to the challenging economic times along with their customers, Michelle and Carlos recently moved their service to a smaller, more manageable store front on the corner of Juan de la Barrera and Kino, right across from Numeros next to the video store.
The pelican seen on our beaches in Puerto Peñasco is the Brown Pelican, the smallest of the seven species of pelicans that date back 40 million years with very little change especially in their distinct beak formation. Oddly enough, after surviving 40 million years, pelicans were almost rendered extinct in the 1950’s and 60’s by the use of…
