Oaxaca
Artisans Sell their Work
Locally - A
group of Oaxacan artisans
are here in the Jaltemba Bay
area selling their hand
crafted rugs. While normally
the artists stay in Oaxaca
State to sell their ware,
their capital city is torn
by demonstrations and
violence. They have been
forced to take to the road
and sell their rugs locally
to support themselves.
The
group uses traditional
methods to card and spin the
wool. They use insects and
plants to die the fibers
before hand weaving the
magnificent designs by hand.
Each rug is unique,
preserving the traditional
handcrafted techniques
passed down by generations.
An Exhibition
and sale will take place at
the La Peñita RV Resort and
Spa on Wednesday November 29
at 11 am at the Palapa. A
spokesperson from the group
will give a talk and
demonstration of some of the
processes used to create the
rugs. Admission is free and
the general public is
welcome.
Please come
and support Oaxacan
artisans.
Letters to the Editor
Editor,
We found a lovely home for
Milagrosita (small miracle)
at Posada Las Flores in Las
Ayalos. Anna instantly fell
in love with her. Twice
Celia and I shared tears
over the parting - we were
getting a bit sappy after
the long hours! If my cat
Dooley was not so Muy Bravo
I would have kept this
little dog for myself. I
packed her about peeking out
of my purse for half a day
yesterday while cleaning up
after the vet clinic. Need
some sleep........and VINO
TINTO.........
Heather,
The pic is of Rob & I with
the Vets, Yolanda & Ester
and our translator and now
vet tech Manuelo. Sydney
the OR nurse is missing -
she kept us all in line.
Editor,
The unexpected gift for me
was working along side very
dedicated and committed
people whom I may have never
met if it was not for the
clinic. We had volunteers
from 11 years old to 78
years old, American,
Canadian and Mexican
nationalities. I have so
much respect for those who
gave so much to help us in
so many ways. It just would
not have been possible
without these wonderful
folks. Thank you!
Jim and I are taking the vets along with their equipment to Melaque tomorrow to begin another clinic. Two of our volunteers have offered to help the clinic there as well. Please forgive this short note but will write again when we catch our breath. Lin Chimes Editor,
You should be alert during
the next days:
Do not open any message with an attached filed called "Invitation" regardless of who sent it, It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch which "burns" the whole hard disk C of your computer. This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list, that is why you should send this e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it. If you receive an email called "invitation", though sent by a friend, do not open it and shut down your computer immediately. This is the worst virus announced by CNN, it has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept. SEND THIS E-MAIL TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW, COPY THIS E-MAIL AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS AND REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US Donna (Editors Note: This "Virus" Has circulated on the internet for years. Please click here for the full story.)

I
am looking for someone that resides
in either Canada/US that will be
coming to our area in December. I
would like to forward a small
mailing envelope to them for
delivery to me here at the La Penita
RV Park (LPRVP). The contents will
be bills and general
correspondence. The envelope can be
opened and inspected if there are
any concerns regarding contraband.

Alicia's
Restaurant
Want to to just
kick back and
have a few
cervesas on the
beach and a
great meal of
fried shrimp?
Then Alicia's
Restaurant in
Guayabitos is
the perfect spot
to sit under a
palapa and watch
the world go
by. Alicia is
very friendly
and always
helpful.
Located on the
Beach in Rincon
de Guayabitos,
right beside
Tequila Willies.
When we have
caught a big
fish or
bargained for
one with the
fishermen,
Alicia has
filleted and
refrigerated the
fillets while we
sit and enjoy
our cervesas. A
tip for the
service is
welcome.

Quotes for the Day
"I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world."
Albert Einstein "A fine is a tax for doing wrong. A tax is a fine for doing things well."
Ruehlen
"My husband and I divorced over religious differences. He thought he was God and I didn't."

Horseback
Riding Tours of the Area
 Want to explore the back hills by horseback? Then these are the tours for you. The tours are scheduled on Fridays beginning on November 24 or can be arranged privately for a group.
Everyone meets at
the crucero of the
200 and Ursulo
Galvan. we then
take a drive through
the farming country
to the Rancho
Guadalupe for a
wonderful breakfast
of Mexican tacos.
Make your own fresh
tortillas if you
want. We then meet
our horse friends
for the day and
begin the trip.
We have designed both easy and semi difficult trips depending on people's desires. The easier trips are a combination of farmlands, riverbeds and roads, lots of scenery and plant and animal life. These trips are from 2 to 3 hours long. The more difficult trip consists of roads, farmlands, and trails which lead up and over a ridge and down to the river and waterfalls and pools. Somewhat arduous in places but if a person is somewhat familiar with horses, it shouldn't be a problem. It is lengthy however lasting about 2 and a half hours one way to the cascadas and 2 hours for return. Upon return we are greeted by a traditional Mexican lunch. Beer and frescas are available for purchase. The cost of the trips are 300 pesos for the shorter trips and 400 pesos for the long trip. People should wear long pants and socks. Bring sunblock and bug dope, any kind of snacks for the trail, water, camera and binocs. Organize your own group at least 2 days in advance - Minimum of 4 people and a Maximum of 8.
