We have a few items remaining and are going to be offering them for sale on Sunday next door to the ALMA rummage sale.

SCHOOL PROJECT - Would you like to be a part of something really big, for just a little money.
The school on the highway (7,8,9th grade) near the Pemex has been serving food
for lunch which we would consider a "Cafeteria." They currently use an old lean
to operation which is really poor. Beto Cota from Baja Properties has been
voted in this year as the President and he really wants to make some long term
improvements. Here's the deal... The school would like to build a permanent
structure which would take care of the Cafeteria and an attached storage area
for sports equipment and maintenance items. What can you do to help... Jose Luis
just North of El Barralitos will sell cement blocks 15 for 10 dollars or 150
blocks for 100 dollars or any amount you can give. He will save the receipts
for Beto and when they are ready to be moved, Be\to will have them moved. Please
consider being a part of this. For the rest of your time in Los Barriles you
will be able to drive by and see what you were a part of. We are buying the
first 100 blocks and we just hope you will help with the rest. Thanks so much
Rick, Julie and Christian

QUESTIONS

a. Anyone out there in Pony Land know where you can buy cone coffee filters size #4. Faylas has had them in the past but not this year so far. Doug at 7barx@wildblue.net

b. Do you have an old satellite dish you don’t want? Call me, I’ll come and get it. Tom 141-0227 or bajabeerman@prodigy.net.mx

c. Any recommendations for an alignment/suspension shop in San Jose that can work on my old Suburban? Alex.mitkus@rovicorp.com

d. Does anybody know of a local business that can provide large format printing and / or vinyl cut lettering for signs etc? Neil neilhowe63@hotmail.com

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS


a. To renew your FM documents when you are not in Mexico, contact the nearest Mexican Consulate.

b. Is there a concrete boat launch in the Los Barriles area? Yes and no. When I first came down here in the 70's Chuy Valdez at Spa Buena Vista (the name then, now Buena Vista Beach Resort) said there was one, but it was buried by sand. Now, I'm guessing it's either WAY buried or disappeared. I've never seen one in 40 years. The nearest one that I'm aware of for public use is in Bahia Muertos (Muertos Bay) out by Punta Arena, where the Giggling Marline used to be (now changed ownership). They charge a fee, but it's a really great launch ramp, protected from the north wind and looks to be able to launch most any size boat. Otherwise, you need to rent a tractor to launch your boat at one of the resorts. There are some others now in the works at the various marinas that are being proposed around the East Cape, but they aren't there yet. Bill Karr, Western Outdoor News.

RIDES FOR PEOPLE, STUFF and CARAVANS

a. Have one package of tractor parts (6"x 6", 30") for La Ribera area. Will have them shipped to your area/house. Will pick them up down here! 50 fresh Clams. Smokey La Ribera 624-165-1846
