b.  I would like to put a note in to say how pleased I was with the work done at Bob's Tapiceria for me recently ( across the highway from the new Pemex station).   Bob arranged everything and Jesus ( new to the area but lots of experience) did a beautiful job re-covering some Mexican Equipal sofa and chairs.  The work was great, fast and Bob is always reasonable to work with on pricing. After a couple of adjustments on the design, Jesus also made a terrific windscreen for our upper deck too which has worked very well.  Thanks   Leigh-Anne

c.  Saw the post about airfares going up and I thought that I should remind everyone to check their fares before they leave.  Yesterday I checked with Alaska and our tickets had gone down $51, so they issued a credit for my next flight.
