The very best vacation we've ever had!!! There's always something we've had to do but not this time. You folks are so gracious. Do you realize how nice it is to be treated as family? The gift exchange party was great fun. Our La Paz trip was a blast. How good the hamburgesas were. Thank you for allowing us to come down. The casita is great and very comfortable. Looking forward to being here next holiday season. Also being a local soon. Our best!

We loved our stay! Lying in bed and seeing our house being built was the best! Thanks so much for the beautiful place to stay and rest and recoup from our busy CA life! Can't wait to be your neighbor! A pleasure to make a new friend. Thanks!

A poem for you by W.H.Davies. "Leisure" What is this life if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare? No time to stand beneath the boughs And stare as long as sheep or cows. No time to see, when woods we pass, Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass. No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like skies at night. No time to turn at beauty's glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance. No time to wait till her mouth can enrich That smile her eyes began. A poor life this if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare.

Adios El Bosque. Es necesario vamonos al norte. Le gusto mas su casa te llama "El Bosque". Es possible a vuelto en Diciembre o Enero por una semana. Me gusto mas Los Barriles - la playa - las montanos - restaurantes y mi amigo "El Gato". Adios mis amigos. Filipe Pam & Doug - whatever he said I agree with! Such a magical place you have. We have many friends who are artists - they would fall in love with this place as we did. You are an incredible artist and clearly have a "feel' for the environment. Muchas gracias. Susan

Thank you for everything from my arroyo experience - which you handled with aplomb - to relaxed moments on the deck, your beautifully inspired place made my coming for my friend's wedding all the more wonderful. And I appreciate your environmental sensitivity.

What a wonderful working vacation. I got lots and lots of work done but coming 'home' to this wonderful casita was soooo relaxing at the end of the day. And, of course, the company with the expertise was wonderful, too. Muchas gracias.

Great visit here at the edge of the arroyo - had all sorts of weather - heavy rain, sunny & hot, wind. Beautiful part of the world. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Again this has been the most relaxing vacation! The chiminea is great fun to sit around and enjoy. It's been fun to do some work on our lots. Christmas Eve with bonfire, hot dogs and smores is a little different, though. Already planning for next year.

Casa El Bosque was the perfect place for Pat and me to recover from the election. Your aesthetics and hospitality made it possible to bring Pat with me this time. We just love being in all of your Baja creations. We had a wonderful trip thanks to you both. We can't thank you enough. Now will you please visit us in Berkeley? If not, we will take it personally! Besos.
