===========================

Just a simple shout-out for the Open Daly (or One Man Two Buckets) Car Wash across the street from the Road Runner and Buzzards.
I have used his services 3 times in the last few months.  He works hard. Takes his time. Good job and willing to touch up on inspection.
Charges 70 pesos for exterior wash.  I won't editorialize about helping those who help themselves.
Rather, I will say it is quite a luxury to return to my car after a leisurely breakfast or lunch and climb into a car that sparkles (at least on the outside!).

QUESTIONS

a.  I have a Yamaha 400 ATV (1996) and need a new air filter for it, who in Los Barilles has parts to fit this machine? Thanks   scott@scotthedrick.com  

b.  We have the 8X8 (originally "Packet8") VOIP phone service and have been having serious transmission problems lately.  Connection to a US number is not a problem nor is hearing the party on the other end.  However, we're told that we can't be understood--we keep "breaking up" to the other person.  Anyone have a similar problem with this system (or Vonage or any system) and/or any ideas how to fix the problem?  Ed ebodaken@gmail.com 142-8061

c.  We are a professional couple looking for a home to rent for late Jan to Late Feb, small is fine, must be private, close to town and beach. Bikes and kayaks would be a plus. Thanks.
