We now need information on parking at the airport for short & long stays. Please write ventana.view@gmail.com and the info can posted on our newsletter. Many thx. Roberta
(We use www.dominicloscabos.com for off site parking. Cheryl)

Help! I need the name and number of the computer person in LB. I messed up my Vista external display feature and can’t figure out how to undo it. Restore doesn’t work. filetnrelease@gmail.com or call Sheri at 142-8026.

plenty bags of compost and bags of goat manure are sitting at my gate for sale - tessabarriles@gmail.com or 1410427

===========================

Just a word of caution a client here in La Ventana had his Toyota pickup filled up by an attendant in the new pemex station and the attendant put diesel fuel in his gas truck. Cost him about 100 bucks to get it fixed. Just a heads up to make sure you get what you ask for when getting fuel.

=======================

I would like to recommend Chuck, from Wahoo RV, for any of your RV problems. He responded to my request for help with our leaky toilet. Drove to LB and in no time we have a new toilet. Great job, great price. Thank you Chuck. filetnrelease@gmail.com
