FOUND!
Found at the Festival de Artes…. Red & Black Readers 2.00 strength.  Please see Julie at East Cape Vacation Rentals….#141-0381
==================================

We came home tonight at 10pm, and it looked like a coyote ran across the road in front of us. We live just south of Vista del Mar on the bluff. Please be mindful of your dogs and cats.
Lorraine bajalorena@yahoo.com   141-0278
===================================

To the person that ran into my green Chevy Tracker in front of El Viejo restaurant with a Red Ford Ranger with a white shell I got your license number. I WILL report you if you do not respond and pay for damages.  jbnaylor@embarqmail.com        624-124-8020
===============================

Just a reminder for the acrylic class next Mon. and Tues. Class times 10am to 3pm. 650 pesos for both days. There is still room for two more artists.  Sherry is bringing 24x18 canvases for you to purchase if you do not have your own.   sunsetmorghan@yahoo.com    124-8071    
=====================================

Dr. Jay Smith will be at Plaza del Pueblo this Saturday from 10 am to 1 pm. While waiting for your appointment why not check out the stores in the plaza, have a cup of coffee or maybe a burger?
=================================

For those of you that would like to give us suggestions for next year's Art Festival, please email  festivalcomments@hotmail.com.  Cheryl from the BPE will be compiling this info for us, and all comments will remain anonymous.  We would appreciate your giving us something that we could improve on as well as a comment on something that you liked about the Festival.  Thank you in advance for helping us to improve on next years event.
===================================

Just a week ago my new TV stopped working in the middle of turning it "on".  All I could see on the screen was the manufacturer's logo.  Remembering that most appliances today have some sort of computer running in the back ground, I decided to "re-boot" the TV.  Unplug, wait 30 seconds and re-plug the power.  Works perfectly now.  A huge number of TV's actually run a version of the Linux operating system.   Just last summer, a good friend has a really high tech stove that was pretty much inop.  The manufacturer's rep said she would need a new circuit board for about $800.  Today, circuit board means computer.   I found the controlling Circuit Breaker (easier than moving the stove to find the cord), removed power for 30 seconds and now the stove works just fine!

FISHING UPDATES - A place where we all can enjoy the fishing.

a.  40lb Pargo at Muertos  Bay caught by Nicole, Eaten by many (I saw the photo---awesome!  Cheryl)

QUESTIONS

a.  Does anyone know of a reliable jardinero in the area of Los Barriles.  We'll need about an hour a week for the 6 months we're away. Light raking, hand watering of some plants, and enough knowledge to maintain and repair my watering system if needed. Some English would be helpful, but not mandatory.

a.  I have a small package that needs to come south to LB sometime during April. It will contain paper products and will weigh 5-8 lbs. (more than I'd ask someone to bring down on a flight).
