We´ll be back on Monday the 26th . Merry Christmas!
Tere & Staff
======================================
To the Ventana View - Thanks for your Sky Reports and Iridium Flare
Predictions. These are really cool (and bright) to observe and you
can really impress your friends if you point to the sky at the
correct location and say "Watch This!" Maybe they will sacrifice a
lamb, or at least buy you a beer if you time it just right! If you
go to heavens-above.com you can enter your exact coordinates and it
will show you the Iridium Flare predictions for your location for
the next 7 days. You do need an accurate time source, as these
flares only last a few seconds. I use my GPS to get the exact time.
===========================================
East Cape Community Fellowship is the English speaking Evangelical
church in Los Barriles, located at the top of the hill just above
Calebs. We invite you all to join us as we celebrate Christmas!
On Saturday evening, December 24th, there will be a Christmas Eve
Candlelight service beginning at 7pm. This will be a joint service
with the Mexican community with Christmas carols in both English and
Spanish.
On Sunday, Christmas Day, we will hold an English speaking service
beginning at 9am with light refreshments following.
We are a friendly group and we'd love to have you all join us as we
celebrate Christmas together. Hope we see you there!
