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:

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!
