A.L.M.A. is in need of someone to foster care 3 puppies (about 10
weeks old). This would be a short term commitment, as they are
scheduled to fly north to new homes on October 22nd. They are used
to being outside, and we can supply a pen to keep them contained. If
anyone would like to volunteer to help us, please call Sheila
Marshall at 624 13 77683 (cell.) or email at:

====================================
"As the beautiful summer begins winding down here in Los Barriles,
we are
starting to see the return of those who enjoy wintering here on the
East
Cape. Times have changed and there are many folks with a variety of
interests that mostly revolve around the beautiful Sea of Cortez. We
have
swimmers, bathers, snorkelers, scuba divers, kayakers, windsurfers,
kiteboarders, paddlers, sailors, power boaters, fishermen and the
list goes
on and on...One of the main attractions for those that recreate in
this area
is the freedom that comes without so many of the rules that are
found in
various parts of the world. This does not excuse any of us from
using simple
common sense, respecting human rights and extending courtesy towards
others.
It is important to keep this in mind to avoid personal injury to
oneself and
those surrounding you. Yesterday, I was nearly run over in the water
by two
inconsiderate men fishing in an aluminum boat based out of one of
our local
trailer parks. This was the second and much more serious of two
separate
incidents that occurred this week by the same two men in the same
boat in
the same area. Only a last minute yell and splash on my part drew
the
attention of the driver of the boat. The passenger was watching the
lures
trailing in the water. This is a normal fishing technique for
offshore
trolling, but inappropriate when trolling less than 100 yards off
the beach
in only 10 feet of water where it is more common to find swimmers,
bathers
and divers. Boats with hard bottoms, whirling propellers, dragging a
multitude of lures equipped with several razor sharp hooks should
AVOID
fishing so close to shore in what now is a substantial residential
community. There are miles of uninhabited shoreline that are open
for safe
and responsible, close inshore fishing. I encourage all those who
enjoy the
ocean to utilize many of the boating and swimming/diving safety
courses
offered in most of the areas of the USA and Canada and please show a
little
respect and common sense towards those sharing the wonderful Sea of
Cortez.
Gracias! makomarkos"

QUESTIONS
a. I have a house under construction using a local contractor and
his crew, they are building pretty much 99% of the project, while I
and my friend took on building a retaining wall utilizing 1-2 local
laborers to help out. I'm doing about 70% supervision, 30% hands-on
and my friend is doing more hands-on. Both my friend and I had left
the country for 1 month and now my builder tells me the Government
came by, as there were reports of Two Americans working on the site.
I do understand the fact that we are taking work away from the
Mexicans, but realistically we are doing perhaps only 1% of the
overall project and this is one way to keep my self busy while
overseeing the contractor/Construction.
Can anyone shed some light on this subject? Is this true that the
Home Owner himself who is doing everything legal, above board,
paying for all permits and paying Social Security not allowed to
work on his or her own property? Are you not allowed to have a
friend/relative help out free of charge as well? What are the
consequences if they are to return and find me/us working? Any
suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated. You can
respond to BPE or to
hansinator1@yahoo.com Thanks
