SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 2019  –  #2979

Note:  I have decided to paraphrase a couple of notices I’ve received.  (1) Do NOT park in a blue handicap space!  Even if it looks a little blue.  I heard of a “space” being covered up with sand and the driver received a  hefty ticket from a lurking policeman.  (2)  “New” gasoline scam……”Sorry, I do not have any change”.  I wonder why he/she would say that?  (3) How about taking a look at the lights around your property and using smaller wattage or hoods on the tops so we all can enjoy our beautiful Baja sky.
