We have found a great mechanic that can repair your quad or car. He is very reasonable and can get any parts or tires required. My 13 year old quad runs better than it ever did and my new tires are awesome!! If you need any repairs we suggest you contact Cesar in El Cardonal. He even supplies a receipt with itemized cost of parts and labor!! He is very good and can repair anything!!
He can be contacted by emailing his brother- a realtor in the area ( he speaks perfect English) at samybaja@hotmail.com
========================================

Please help us find our dog! There was an accident on Sunday, January 3rd around 2 pm at KM 224 1/2 on highway 1, 55 km north of the Bahia Los Angeles turn off at Punta Prieta. Our dog was inside the van that rolled and when he got out he ran off into the desert and we were unable to find him after searching hours and days.
His name is Pickle. He is a tan lab/great dane mix. He is very friendly, but I'm sure very scared. He was wearing a collar with a tag that had our numbers on it; both U.S. and Mexico. He was last seen by a witness, running west into the desert at km 224 1/2.
The reward is currently $300 usd, but I am willing to do what it takes to get my sweet boy back.
If anyone has seen him or knows of anything, please let me know.
My email address is: amy.thomas@me.com
Phone numbers: Mexico cell 045-624-141-6121, Mexico home 01-624-172-6119, U.S. cell 619-851-4959, U.S. home 619-270-9644
Thank you, Amy & Ryan Thomas

c. As a US Citizen you are required to file a US tax return each year so long as you earn over a certain minimum amount regardless of whether you live in the US. You must report all of your worldwide income. If you have a fideicomiso, foreign corporation, or over ten thousand dollars at any time during a tax year in one or more foreign bank or financial accounts you must file a foreign account information return (filed separately from your US tax return) by June 30th following each calendar year or be subject to a $10,000 fine which the IRS is now collecting.

We have been doing tax returns for Gringos in Mexico for 20 years. All services are provided by email, fax and phone. If you have not been filing now is the time to catch up because the IRS is starting to get tough on expatriates. Please see our website at www.TaxMeLess.com or email us at donnelsonattycpa@yahoo.com.
