Our little labor of love continues to grow at unexpected levels / Jaltemba Sol shines brightly Who would of thought? One year ago Dot and I started the Jaltemba Express as a service for the community...we had under 1000 subscribers within a month. Within a year we now have 7214 direct subscribers and an amazing 42,000 distinct visitors to every edition of the Jaltemba Sol. It almost feels as if the entire world is watching our little corner of paradise.
Now before we let this all go to our heads, we have to give thanks to everyone who has contributed to the success. We count on you to supply us with information and pictures. Bar and Restaurant owners who ensure that we have the necessary information at hand...we thank you and hope that everyone continues to enjoy the Jaltemba Sol. Remember! If no one tells us about the event, its hard to publish it. Bill and Dot Bell Send information to editor@jaltembasol.com
