FIDO ALERT!
I am looking for our long time friend, Freida. She has been missing from Los Barriles for one week. She is a golden retriever around seven years old, very friendly. She is wearing a red collar. Our little son cries every day since she is missing.

 Estamos buscando a nuestro vieja amiga. Desaparecio hace una semana. Si las haz visto favor de comunicarse. Nuestro nino llora por ella cada vez que se acuerda.

CALL BILLIE, 142-8169 OR FRANK AND MARGY 142-8014 FOR DETAILS. OR E-MAIL TO FTHARPER@GMAIL.COM
===============================

A heartfelt THANK YOU to all my wonderful friends in Baja for their condolences, prayers, and offers of assistance on the passing of my father, Gabriel. I feel very grateful and blessed to be able to live in such a caring place. Sefi Held

Due to circumstances, the art workshop on the 4th of March for making memories, is cancelled. Thank you all that wanted to participate. Maybe another time. Thank you, Sherry
==================================

TenPeso Goal is 600. To date 8 coins. Balance 592
I am starting a new fund raiser of my own in conjunction with the BPE and the East Cape Guild Scholarship Fund. I do not charge for the BPE and most of us contribute generously to all the different causes and non-profits in our incredible community but I'm thinking there always room for a little more so, I am going to start collecting $10peso coins. My goal is to collect 600 coins and that will cover about 2 kids for one year of high school each. So, when you see me, pass me a TenPeso. We live on Looney Loop 141-0398 Cheryl
===========================================

QUESTIONS (Every question deserves a good answer)

a. Can anyone recommend a good source for stone flooring tiles? Indoor and outdoor.
Thanks, makr1010@hotmail.com

b. When and where is the very large art show in Los Barriles. Gary
 ANSWER: Sunday, March 28th Rancho Buena Vista. eastcapers@yahoo.com

c. Does anyone know what port number or what is needed to be
able to send e-mail via infinitum525 (telmex) through
outlook? I can receive e-mail but can't send any unless I
go through the website of my service provider in Canada. 
Thanks for any suggestions! Leigh-Anne
.
d. (Sorry, I am not going to take the time to clean up the email below. It's readable, Cheryl). We are only able to get down to LB 2 weeks or so at a
time 
every quarter so are not in tune with the recycling. 
 
Can anyone enlighten us as to the following: 
 
1) Is there anywhere to take plastics, cardboard,
glass 
etc, if so where? 
2) How does the bottle return work with beer? The 
deposit etc at the stores? What if we forget to pay the 
deposit can we still return the bottles somewhere? 
 
We would like to tell our friends and family when they
are 
visiting how to handle it and don’t want to contribute
 
any more than essential to the landfill. 
 
Thanks so much!
