Note #1:  I have received 4 emails asking about the statis Rancho Buena Vista.  Hopefully, one of the owners will make a statement (kind of 'straight from the horse's mouth') until then I guess time will tell.  Cheryl

Note #2:  It worked!  I can put out a BPE through my address book site but if you're not in my address book you won't receive it!

Note #3:  I'm making an Artist's Tour page.  If you're on the Tour, send me you info and I will publish it on Friday morning.

Note #4:  It is my fan that broke in my computer.  New one is on it's way.

Note: #5:  With this format you'll have to copy/paste the links.  Sorry!

Note #6:  Hey, what happened to KISSS=KeepItShorSweetSimple??  Multiple adjectives are NOT necessary.

Today I discovered that my Magic Jack was not working properly.  I call forwarded my phone in San Diego to Magic Jack like I always do.  I called to make sure it was working and nothing happened.  I then got a voice message saying that my ISP may have blocked Magic Jack and that I should contact them to unblock it.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Does anyone know a way to "fix" the problem?

A hello to everyone from Dr. Mary...  I've had several people ask me what cell plan from the state I have.  It's really great, if you already have an AT&T cell phone, it isn't much to add Mexico as if you're standing right in the States or in Mexico when making the calls.  That's why I've welcomed anyone to call my cell phone from any phone and then hang up.  I'll see the caller ID and call you back.  It just uses my minutes like I'm sitting in the States, whether dialing a US number OR a Mexico number.  Craig, my geeky husband(he's handy to have around sometimes:o) looked up the information about the Viva Mexico Plan for me and it follows my message and be sure to call me if you need Chiropractic services.  See you soon!  US cell 970-275-3226 or our home land line, here, is 141-0368.
AT&T wireless has a "Viva Mexico Plan" which allows us for an extra $15 per month to use our familytalk minutes in Mexico just as if we were in the States. You can call to/from as well as within Mexico just using your normal minutes with no other charge than the monthly $15 charge.  You can also add/remove this plan as needed.  You can read more about it at: http://www.wireless.att.com/learn/international/viva-mexico.jsp.

Thank you to all the people that responded to my request for the  Le Wa WA dog groomer phone number.  Luz did a wonderful job on my Shih Tzu.  While there my friend and I decided to visit Artesano's where we happened to meet the owner of  the restaurants Villa Serena and Puerta Vieja, which is across the street from Home Depot.  what a fantastic view they have.  The food was excellent!  Our lunch started with chips and really good salsa and a platter of marinated vegetables.  We chose the daily special which was a salad, choice of three entrees and dessert for $16.95. The view, the service and the food were exceptional.  We will certainly try Puerta Vieja again!
