A message from Dr. Mary, the chiropractor---HI! I'll be arriving in LB on Friday the 25th. I expect to be to the house by late afternoon. If you need to see me soon after my arrival e-mail me, now and we can make arrangements. I'll officially be in the office from 4:00 to 5:30 on Saturday, June 26th. No appointment is necessary and the payscale is whatever you can afford. Call or e-mail if this window of time doesn't work for you and I'll see you special. And remember that if you have at least 4 people for me to see, I'll bring my table to YOUR place! 141-0368 or drmary@drmary.net  Can't wait to see everyone! PS-I'll also be singing at the Vida Nueva Church on Sunday with a friend of mine
======================================

The drawing for the year's worth of near-the-airport parking which was donated to the East Cape Guild by Dominic was held today at Roadrunner's cafe. Ruben was asked to assist and drew number 42 which was one of the squares purchased by Jane Perry. Congratulations to Jane and thanks to all of you who helped to fund scholarships for local students by buying one or more of the squares.
Mark you calendars for the Guild's fun fall activities: Monte Carlo Night will be held November 13 and Baja Ha Ha Golf will be held November 27. Watch the BPE this fall for details on these fun events.

TRAVEL REPORTS

a.  We departed Los Barriles on Sunday July 13, and drove through Constitution. No sign of a single police vehicle.(must all be off work on Sunday).
On Monday morning, traveling north on highway 1, north of Ensenada, traveling through the mountains, we noticed a lot of smoke from a fire. As we proceeded along, with traffic going both ways, we sudden found ourselves driving into a wildfire, with winds blowing the flames rapidly up the mountain side, along side the road, licking at our tires, and attempting to jump the road. We were very fortunate to come through unharmed, but we fear there were many vehicles trapped. There were no emergency vehicles to direct traffice, and the vehicles continued to travel along. After traveling for about 15 minutes we did see one fire truck heading in that direction, with 2 police cars 10 minutes behind. If anyone has any information on this wildfire, would they please let us know. Annette and Ivan iikaiser@frii.com

b.  It happened again. Being cognizant of the trouble in C.C. I paid very close attention when driving through today. Drove in the “thru lane” and never went over 40 kmph. Stopped at every light and easy to miss stop signs. We just passed the last light and as I looked in the rearview mirror I saw the local policia screaming down the street. He pulled me over. I couldn’t quite understand what he was accusing me of. Either running an orange light or didn’t yield for a woman crossing the street. Neither of which were true. I wonder if they have spotters? I told him this was not the case, but he told me that I’d have to surrender my drivers’ license and could pick it up the next day at the police station after I paid a $700 peso fine. I told him that I could not come back the next day and he said I could pay a $500 peso fine to him on the spot and of course get my license back, on the spot. During this conversation he was fiddling with his machine gun and since I didn’t want to be delayed any longer I paid him the $500 peso fine and asked for a receipt, as I didn’t want to be pulled over and fined again. He gave me one, on it he claimed his name was Joaquin Valades and it said to offer assistance and facilitate me to all that I present the receipt to. And his badge number was (he made a point of this) 007! Perfect! So now I know where James Bond retired.   Greg
======================================

I need to renew my FM3, but I've seen here on BPE that they are replacing our booklet with a card. And yet there's been no definitive word on how this works, or what it takes to do it. I renew my booklet in Cabo, do I just walk in with the same paperwork required and they'll issue a card, or how does it work? How long does it take? Just getting my renewal each year takes weeks, and that's longer than I can ever stay, which makes it a headache. ANY INFO on what's going on or how it works would be REALLY appreciated. Thanks, Bill
====================================

Please help if you can!! We have a beautiful natured dog that has been adopted to Vancouver, BC. She has been in the refugio far too long and we are hoping that someone flying from LaPaz to Vancouver will give us a hand. We will do the paperwork and pay the fees; some one will help you transfer planes in LA and the new owners will meet the plane in Vancouver. Please help Maggie get to the home she deserves. Thank you
