Our community has lost a very cool man. For those of
you that knew Dan Fogle, he passed Dec 25, 2015. An adventurer, a
mayor, an engineer, a bicyclist, a champion motocross rider. An all
around very nice man. You will be missed Dan. I am sure he is riding
and on another adventure in our great beyond.

we'll take care of the vaccinations before handing her over to you!

=======================================
Via the Gringo Gazette: At least 20 homes and
retail shops were totally destroyed when a fire raged through Santa
Rosalia, north of La Paz. The town was a candle waiting to be lit,
as it is the only town on the Baja where most structures are made of
wood. The wood was ballast in the ships that came down to Mexico to
haul ore back to the States. Free wood! Wouldn’t you go down to the
docks to scavenge through to build your home? Also this fire
did so much damage because the homes and shops were all joined
together. They actually had to bulldoze down some intact, supposedly
safe structures before the fire got there, in order to create a fire
break. There were minor injuries, no deaths.
We’re a little safer from this kind of tragedy, because all our
structures are built of concrete.

ANSWERS - DISCUSSIONS
a.
I FOUND MY BRACELET. Thanks so much to everyone who asked me about
my lost bracelet. My husband and I went through the garbage this
morning, and it was in the very bottom of the garbage can. I must
have had it in my hand with something else, and was just not
thinking. It was a 60th birthday gift from our dog, Bean, who died 4
years ago and it means so much to me. Thanks, Sandy
