GREAT News! Just spoke with
Alaska Airlines and they received an email two hours ago that they
will begin service to Cabo Wednesday, October 8. One flight a day
from LAX for the moment. I just booked for Friday, October 10. Thank
goodness Mexico's President visited Southern Baja yesterday to
direct attention to the airport and get it reestablished so the
economic life blood of tourism that comes through the airport can
start flowing again. Check
www.alaskaair.com and you'll see the flight is available
for booking and purchase. YEAH! Theresa Comber,

Propane Answers:
1) Cali-Gas did fill my tank 400 gal. yesterday (Wed.). I
caught them on the main road. The delivery guy said to just call
them or put your sign out. They were going to Dennis's next to
see whom else needed gas. Dan
2) I read where someone
was looking for propane truck to fill the big tanks coming from
SDJ and I wanted to tell you that we get the Gaspasa truck on
Mondays and sometimes Wednesdays up here at Las Brisas. Their
phone # in La Paz is 612 155 9013 and the driver's name is Jose.
============================================

I wanted to share some great news about the on-going recovery
efforts in Cabo San Lucas…
Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto was scheduled to arrive in
Cabo this morning. He will be touring the IGY Marina and
making the announcement that the San Jose International Airport
will be open for commercial service by October 8th which
when the Gupo Aeropuerto del Pacifico says it will be open. The
official statement was followed by “in actuality it will be
sooner.” Remember that the La Paz airport (LAP) is operating
normally. So that means more help is on the way and it also
means all flights prior to the Los Cabos Offshore and Black &
Blue should be operating normally.
We’re currently contacting every hotel now to get a list of
which ones are open, or when they will, the present conditions
(repairs, water, electricity, internet) and will blast this out
as soon as it is compiled. At present , there are more than
2,000 rooms in Los Cabos open for business.
The IGY Marina has fuel available right now and is more than 70
percent operational. They will be making tremendous headway in
the coming days to complete that process and be ready for
tournament action.
Cabo San Lucas is returning to normal. The
stores/shops/restaurants are open for business or nearly ready.
The banks and ATMs are back in operation as well.
Waves for Water is distributing even more water filtration
systems to those areas that still need water. This is one of the
groups the Bisbee's Cabo Relief Fund is supporting, along with
Club Dust, (Club Dust on FaceBook) which has boots on the ground
already constructing shelters for those unfortunate who lost
their homes.
Bob Bisbee Senior has set up an office at the Bisbee’s Store
inside Baja Cantina Marina to distribute grants and low-interest
loans to the independent charter boats, bait pangas and eco-tour
guides to help them get back on their feet and out on the water.
The response to the Bisbee’s Cabo Relief Fund has been awesome
and I thank all of you who have generously contributed. We’re
still accepting donations and 100 percent of the money is going
to the people who need it the most—those hit hardest by this
devastating natural disaster. So thanks again for all your help.
The situation in Cabo San Lucas is improving hourly and we’re
doing our best to stay on top of it and keep you informed. One
of the best ways we can help is with the economic boost that
comes with tourism and sport-fishing. So at this point we’re
planning to keep the ball rolling with the LCO and B&B next
month, as originally scheduled.
More information to come asap! With fingers crossed,
Wayne
