COWPATTY CHRONICLES

Happy Holidays from Puertecitos!

I apologize for no updates since March! 2009 proved to be very busy for me and it seems there is never enough hours to get to all the fun things (like this website)

Cowpatty has been up and running and enjoying a steady stream of aficionados.....

Things are status quo in Puertecitos. Still issues to be resolved with the leases but things are slowly progressing thru the legal system and everyone is being kind to each other.

Came in to Cowpatty in August to celebrate Miss Prem's 80th birthday! What fun. I'll be posting pictures.

In September we installed our new power system and repaired the damaged generator building. Things are working smoothly. Also have internet access now so should be able to communicate a little easier. My direct email address is: mscowpatty@gmail.com

My dear neighbor and friend Chris was here in October for the month for a much needed vacation. Thank goodness, because I was sick for almost two weeks and the new dog (Missy) got really ill as well. She was a great help and morale booster during my illness. A bummer of a start for the season but Missy and I are both feeling much better now. Still not up to full energy but better every day.

Had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner in Huerfenito with Pete and Olivia and many Mexican and American friends. What a treat! My Dad and daughter were here and enjoyed a perfect day. Did I forget to mention THE ROAD??? 30 minutes from Puertecitos to Huerfenito. WOW! Again, more pics to come.

Condolences on the passing of Ben Machado, Lee Ashe and Skip's wife Barbara. They will be missed.

More posts coming! Maybe even a Cowpatty facebook in the making.

Hasta luego
Ms Cowpatty

Hola from Baja,

We have had quite a few set backs so far this year. Sadly, we lost our dear pet Pinto in January. He is sorely missed. The first part of March our outbuildings caught fire and we lost our entire power system as well as the contents of the storage building. Fortunately our amazing neighbors, Mexicano and Americano rallied together with buckets of dirt and water and put the blaze out before it spread further than the buildings. We are eternally grateful for all their help.

On the bright side, Cowpatty has been doing a brisk business with a good time being had by all on some gorgeous Baja beach days. It's great to see so many travelers and locals stopping by.

Beth's nature hike was a big hit!! I'll be adding photos over the next week. Watch for the photo of Romano coming in to the bar..........I noticed a few links weren't working so hope they are alright now. Drop me an email, send photos from your trip--let us hear from you!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR

2009 has begun and I hope you all have a great new year. I am working on the website and will be publishing some new info over the next two months. The Cowpatty is open again and we will be sharing photos and info about events coming up.

Our deepest condolences to the Holesinger family. We are so saddened by Kim's unexpected passing.

I look forward to visiting with you at the Cowpatty!!!
