    Importing furniture for holiday home

    The important thing is to treat everyone with respect and don't be an ugly know it all US citizen. It does not matter what you read or what someone told you, the people at the border have a lot of latitude. Try out your Spanish, they appreciate your efforts.

    Early weather change, I think

    69 at mi casa hoy. All windows wide at night and closed in the day keeps it comfortable with ceiling fans. Sea is flat today with only a light breeze. Clear blue skies with that scorching Sonora sun working it's way across the sky.

    Critical water shortage in Penasco

    IT has improved in Unconscious but still not as good as it used to be. I get a small trickle part of the day and more flow it seems in the nights. Cannot report on the rest of town, , but those I have recently asked reported they have water. The trucks are still hauling to the large rentals to...

    Early weather change, I think

    Seems early this year but lately cool enough at night after midnight to open all the doors and windows to sleep. Early mornings are about perfect. Sun is too damned hot mid day. Beach is perfect today, breezy but sea is flat. Lots of pangas out, good day for fishin.

    Pet Drugs

    Get the chemical drug name, not the marketing name. (For example Tylenol is Paracetamol) Comparatively speaking Tylenol is expensive paracetamol is less. There are several good websites that will help you. Check Mex Farmacias for the chemical drug name and see what comes up. Might be surprised...

    Vegan?

    I have taken things to a new level when it comes to food. I have been refusing to consume anything coming fr0m ANY LIVING BEING after deciding that plants have a life too. Anything in plastic is fair game.Seems unfair to suggest brutalizing plants exclusively. Carrots are particularly...

    Any new Internet service in town?

    there one that erects a tower on your house and ties into a regional set up. A little more costly than a tel mex line but good for remote areas. Esters know all about it but he has been busy !!!!

    Continuing severe sewage problem in Miridor and else where.

    I don't have the entire inside scoop but a few scant years back they dug up the entire street there after years of deluge and rebuilt a lot of the infrastructure. As I get it the sludge gravity drains into and is then pumped out of underground septic holding tanks from various locations to the...

    Continuing severe sewage problem in Miridor and else where.

    Fremont at Chiapis is a sewage lake, again. A huge BLACK lake with floaters. The stench is incredible what with the high temp and humidity. The lake flows right up to the door step of a couple of houses there. Effluent is squirting out of the manhole cover and flowing down Fremont. Folks there...
