We visit Jesus the carpenter

What happens when you can’t find the exact desk you want for the right price in Cabo? You visit Jesus and have him build exactly what you want out of beautiful local wood for 2/3 the price ( you did know Jesus is a carpenter—right?).

Yesterday Wendy, Mark and I visited Jesus who lives and works in Miraflores ( the town not the winery). Ordered two bedside tables and an end table to see how it goes. Jesus had a huge smile on his face when Wendy called him an artist. We are going to heaven for sure!

Comment from Wendy: Hey this guy really was an artiste! Beautiful woods … so nicely designed. And to be clear, his furniture was not cheap but this way we could buy direct. We had passed by his very tiny “store” many years ago…. which lacked any doors or windows but did have a roof. There is a tiny sign next to the road that just says Jesus furniture… we had chuckled about it before but finally got the opportunity to see his stuff… thanks to Mark’s persistence. We also got to go to his workshop. I showed him a sketch of a rustic end table I wanted. He said un momento… and brought a chunk of wood in the exact dimensions that he just happened to have. He understood exactly what I wanted even with my terrible super slow Spanish . (He spoke no English but was very patient).
