HEALTH & WELFARE REPORT
Many of you have asked about the guy who was injured at the
Fountain in Los Barriles the day after Thanksgiving-I am
that guy-Eldon Hathaway. I spent more than a week in the
Amerimed Hospital in Cabo San Jose. I was treated for burns
over 20 % of my body. I will have had 3 surgeries
surgeries to my arm and toes. The doctor expects I will make
a full recovery, but it will take up to 8 months. I
appreciate your good wishes and prayers and the really good
news is that I am alive. Your friend and neighbor Eldon
Hathaway
(Thank you, Eldon. Many people have asked how you're

Announcement and Update
East Cape Health Care in conjunction with the Rotary
International held our second annual Diabetic
Screening during the Nov 20 Parade. This year we screened
over 70 local residents for Diabetes and Hypertension with
over 30 % positive results.
We are in the process of obtaining assistance from Rotary
International to continue this much needed program. We
are asking for help, to identify participants and encourage
them to come forward for our FREE Diabetic Program. Included
will be initial screening, ongoing education, home
monitoring equipment, laboratory, medication and vision
screening / glasses.
As always our challenge is finding participants and
continued funding. This program offers assistance in the
prevention of long term consequences of a treatable disease
.
To explore how you can " help us, help people" visit us at
the 2nd Annual Local Artist Show at Colina Del Sol Sunday 12

QUESTIONS
a. (1.) I have a set of Farberware pans that were in a
used trailer that I bought here in Los Barriles. They have
not been used for three years. The handles are real tacky
and I have not been able to figure out what to use on them
to take away the tackines. Any suggestions or ideas?
(2.) Also we are looking for some movies (VHS or DVD) to
borrow, rent or buy.
Thanks, Patti <jenepatti1955@yahoo.com>
ATT cell 509-499-0408 or magicJack 406-992-1232
b. Has anyone still got Directv service? I have had it for
10 years and they recently shot me the signal to my old box.
It worked in the USA before I came here. Is there something
I need to know that is different this year? I only want the
5 stations that I have had for years. Thanks, Eileen&Gary
leenykat@yahoo.com 624-141-0440.
c. Oil Recycling: Does anybody know of a place to recycle
oil here in Los Barriles, where it
will be disposed of in an environmentally safe way?
Answers to
bajanelson@telus.net or
to the Pony Express. Thanks.
d. My husband and I are in Los Barriles for the first time
and we'll be here through March. I am now looking for some
intellectual stimulation. So what the hell, I figure I'll
start a book club. I don't want to read Danielle Steele or
Robert Ludlum. I want to read some serious s**t. That
means literature, obscure fiction, maybe some science,
psychology, or even - oh no! - lightweight philosophy. If
this curls your hair you'd probably better not volunteer.
But if you think there's something down there under your
sunhat crying for exercise, reply to alighton@me.com or
skype: liftoff1 and we'll all read something. Jennifer
Flower
e. Looking for some accurate information from BPE readers.
One of my daughters (a minor) is scheduled to fly down to
SPA with her father on December 23rd to join me and my
other daughter for our Christmas vacation. Just yesterday,
I noticed that her passport is scheduled to expire in April
2011, so it will only be good for about four months after
she enters Mexico. Does anyone have accurate information
about the six-month requirement, whether it is enforced, and
if so, by whom. I spent hours on the Internet yesterday and
could not come up with any official information. The
renewal of a minor's passport can be expedited, but
both parents have to appear in person with the minor at the
State Department office in San Francisco. However, the
first available appointment is on December 21st and I will
already be in Mexico. This kills me because I booked these
flights months ago and it never occurred to me that the
youngest daughter's passport would expire years before the
rest of ours. Please send any responses to
phyllis@phyllisnewton.com. Thank you.

RESTAURANT & ENTERTAINMENT
a. Restaurant Campestre Triny recommends that
you park around the corner from
Fayla's Grocery when you visit the restaurant. This is the
former "Lake Los
Barriles" area that is being transformed into a wonderful
community park. Cars
are no longer able to reach the park area on the north side
of Campestre Triny,
so be sure to enter the parking area behind Fayla's.
Restaurant Campestre Triny will be closed
December 24 and 25th so the staff can
celebrate Christmas with their families. But stay tuned for
the great New
Year's Eve dinner and party announcement. The former
entrance to "Lake Los
Barriles" will be magically transformed into a big dance
floor where you will be
able to dance the night away to music of the 60's, 70's and
80's. And you can
look forward to starting New Year's Day in authentic
Mexican style by soothing
your aching feet (and head) with Pozole and Menudo. More
details to
come.....but mark your calendars and your dance cards.
