  1. I always watch the scanner thing when they check me out. That way you catch "mistakes" at the time.
  2. 0.65 inches in upper Ajijic I was totally surprised by this. My view is to the south and the storm struck from the north side of my house.
  3. I have bought sod at both of the viveros mentioned but I agree with Bisbee Gal. This is the worst possible time to put down new sod. Wait until the rains start.
  4. Because I shop at Costco I do buy all of my beef and pork there. I repackage it and freeze it for later use.
  5. The problem seems to be widespread and varies in type and complexity. I have had 3 days during the last 7 when I did not have internet early in the morning, around 5 to 6 am, I am able to get internet back by shutting my modem off and on a couple of hours later. Two houses down the street from me they are without TV, computer, and telephone. They had been without for 3 days when they came to me for help. A friend in San Antonio on the lake lost everything yesterday. When you talk to people the problems come and go around the area. What is happening with Telmex that can cause this suddenly? Usually a problem like an outage occurs in a certain area?
  6. I doubt if many people would know this; probably best to check with your bank.
  7. Medicare can only be used in the US. It is the law.
  8. Thank you for the information Al.
  9. Would you say how much you pay for the flat year fee? Is Dr. Garcia full time at lakeside?
  10. A shoe store that take into account the width of the foot. I have short wide feet so I have to buy shoes two or three sizes larger to accommodate the width.
  11. Lake Chapala Lake in Mexico 4.6844 Google reviews Description Lake Chapala is Mexico's largest freshwater lake. It lies in the municipalities of Chapala, Jocotepec, Poncitlán, and Jamay, in Jalisco, and in Venustiano Carranza and Cojumatlán de Régules, in Michoacán.Wikipedia Surface elevation: 1,524 m Area: 1,100 km² Length: 80 km Location: Jalisco / Michoacán, Mexico Average depth: 7 m (23 ft) With an average depth of 23 feet it might be a little difficult to "walk to shore from most parts of it."
  12. If I have a heart attack, or a stroke here I much prefer to go to a hospital here where hopefully I can receive the clot busting drug. That of course assumes it (they) will have an emergency roomed staffed by an ER doctor and nurse(s).
  13. I remember back in the days when we renewed our DL in Riberas I learned the hard way that all copies of any required document have to be in black and white.
  14. You can pay the fee for you drivers license at the Recaudadora in Chapala and then go to Guadalajara to actually obtain the license. I do this just because it is one less line to stand in when you get to wherever you are going.
  15. No it would not but then I would be an English speaker in an English language country. Here in Mexico on this website we have Mexicans with whom English is a second language, and we have English speakers for whom Spanish is a second language. My point is that I do not think we have to be so critical of spelling mistakes.
  16. Oh really. Now we are going to correct spelling.
  17. One thing about ceiling fans with lights....My fan with lights I bought at Home Depot several years ago. Recently one of the lights burned out. When I went looking for a replacement I found that the old type of lights are no longer made and nobody was selling them. I had to get HD lights for my fan in GDL.
  18. I am in Upper Ajijic a little east of you and no problem here.
  19. Thank you for the link. It worked great. Easy to print my new color CURP with Barcode.
  20. The coastal beaches are the obvious areas in Mexico that would be good to consider if you want to move to Mexico.
  21. Sorry, no. I just drive to it. It is one of the last businesses on the right side before you come to the lake road.
  22. I prefer to pay ahead of time in Chapala then that is one less thing to worry about when you get to the Plaza de Torres, or wherever. Remember if you have the senior citizen card you can get a significant discount.
