DON'T SPRAY PESTICIDES
(Notice by
Jeff Bitkoff & David Thompson)
The state of Nayarit has just started (today) releasing a very small non biting wasp (avispa) that is the natural predator of the conchilla rosada. Conchilla rosada is the white stuff on your hibiscus and other plants. Inside the white is the little pink insect that is the conchilla rosada.
C.S. has now spread to the food crops (yeah our food and Mexico feeds a large part of the US and Canada). The check point was moved from the north side of the Ameca Bridge at PV to north of Las Varas by the Pemex to stop the spread.
No matter what the chemical salesman says or your gardener there is NO Pesticide for the Conchilla Rosada. The Insecticides kill the Avispa or wasp.
PLEASE no insecticide use outside for at least a week to establish the avispas (wasps). We have so many hibiscuses in our area they were forced to seed with the wasps sooner than this spring as was intended.
PLEASE NO OUTSIDE INSECTICIDE FOR AT LEAST A WEEK
You can make a difference in our community

BILL’S PHOTOS
Hola Bill
I would really like if you could send me the pictures you took last night at the Bavarian gardens and at the pool hall in La Peñita. I'm the girl that you talk to at the pool hall from Ottawa. The picture of me with the singer Roberto. The other one is the one with the 4 friends (one man and 3 girls.)
Also the one of my friend Yvonne that you took of her alone. I downloaded them from the journal but the resolution is not that good so if possible forward them to me, and I will pass them around.
Thanks a lot.

EMERGENCY CONTACTS
This is John from the Villanueva Trailer Park. Please enter my subscription to your fine publication.
Also, regarding the letter to the editor regarding a Family emergency for "Mr. & Mrs. Wittgen (from Canada)", the first names would be very helpful as many people only know folks by their first names. Also the area of Canada they are from and most importantly, their dog's name if they have one.
John
SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES
The reason I sent this note and picture was that I thought you may want to put it in today's paper. I don't know about La Peñita, but here in Los Ayala the burning smell was oppressive. This morning the town was blanketed with smoke, as indicated in the picture I sent. The smell suggested burning of a LOT of plastic, and we were wondering if it was coming from the garbage dump. If so, such actions certainly do not encourage tourism or leave a very good impression of our community.

Ja'Qui REPORT
I would like to thank everyone for their support and prayers during my recent absences from performing. I hear that many of you have asked about where I am and have gone looking for me at my usual restaurants. I'm sorry I missed you. But there is good news! I am much better now and will be performing twice a week and hope all of you will come see me once again to enjoy Ja'Qui And The Perez Brothers. I will return to my usual Thursday evenings at Vista Guayabitos. I will also be back at Beso de Sol with the Perez Brothers on Saturday evenings. I hope to see all of you soon. Love To All
