TUESDAY, APRIL 9, 2019  –  #3019

(1)  Retraction:  there seems to be a misunderstanding of the report that the policia wanted money when we were trying to load our boat. They did not ask for money, just a 15 minute talk..

(2)  Watch for the “Catch up edition this afternoon”

DISCUSSIONS – ANSWERS – ANNOUNCEMENTS

a.  Hey Neighbors, Joe and I now announce a project mostly inspired by 4 people: Theresa Comber, Lynn Mirassou, Holly Burgin, and my sister Amanda, all fierce women on the environment. It’s a Facebook Group called Sustainable You (https://www.facebook.com/groups/SustainableYou). We had to create it because we could find nothing else like it. Sustainable You is building to be an active, international working group for sharing, inspiring, and problem-solving on all kinds of environmental challenges from global to local issues like climate change and recycling, right down to personal issues, like hurricane recovery right here in Los Barriles. It takes a lot of voices to make this kind of group really effective. Join us and share it with others you feel might be interested. You’d be amazed at how much good news and innovation there is out there on these issues.  Jennifer  alighton [at] me (dot) com (https://www.facebook.com/groups/SustainableYou)

b.  Phones/Internet in Buenos Aires –   the Buenos Aires area north of Jonathon and west of the main road does not have ‘real’ TelMex lines.   I live there and I want a real land/internet line that can be serviced by TelMex and always works.   Friday, we met with a manager at TelMex in La Paz and he said if you live in that area, you need to email him your request and he will take all the requests to the infrastructure group to prove it is worth the investment.  Please included in your email your name, contact information and address or google screen shot of your location.    His name is Reynaldo Alvarez Molina  Email ramolina@telmex.com     If we all send messages to the one manager he can show them in one listing the large list of line requests for this one area.   Even if you have done this before, please do it again so this one person has your contact number so the list is complete.  They are not putting together all the requests.   Maybe we can get the service  soon, which is inexpensive – $400 peso or less per month!    So, if you live in this neighborhood, please put in your request.   Thanks for the help!  Questions?  thundervalley98178@yahoo.com

c.  Ellen Wylde made a donation to the East Cape Guild in memory of her mother.  I sent her a thank you note.  The Guild has been providing scholarships to help our local students better their lives for the past 21 years.  This is what Ellen had to say:  You are more than welcome. I wish everyone would “pony” up and contribute.  My daughter,  Fiona, went to the LB school every winter for 4 months from the time she was 4 years old to 9th grade. She is now 22. She became bi-lingual, and bi-cultural as well. All her best friends from her class, are in college in La Paz and Guadalajara, most of them first generation in their family’s to go to college. I know 7 of the kids and they are studying engineering, architecture, nursing, dental school.  Many thanks for your efforts.  Sincerely,  Ellen Wylde

Now we are seniors, with a 5th wheel, wondering about road conditions down to the tip…I realize many folks head down in RVs, but I’m not sure if I should take a truck camper, or a 35′ 5er….got a good truck, speak the language a bit.
