  1. Past hour
  2. If you can only use new lane from Libramiento, how do you turn into Walmart ? Is there still a light to let you turn into Walmart from new lateral road? Is the old section closed? Need to go to Walmart early tomorrow coming from Libramiento.
  3. Ouch! It was bad enough turning left onto the carretera from Revolucion even before the bicycle path went in. I feel for you!
  4. Today
  5. Beware if you are planning on traveling west on the Carretera from Walmart. I just came home from Walmart. All traffic coming down the Libramiento and turning west onto the Carretera can only use the new lane. Traffic making the right turn must go on the lateral. There were a lot of police and cars at that point. I saw a bus going with the crowd down the lateral. Traffic on the Carretera was the usual stop and go. Mostly stopped. The next big problem was the light at Upper Floresta. Traffic was piling up there. There were two policemen there making sure that both lanes went according to the lights. The traffic in the lateral has until they get to the gas station to get into the Carretera. I live in Upper Ajijic and I would normally turn up Revolucion. Not today. People who come down Revolucion are in for a surprise when they get to the Carretera, especially if they want to turn left. Time will tell how this works out.
  6. The helicopter has been dumping water on several fires very high up for around an hour. The wind seems to be hampering putting the fires out as when they drop the water, the wind is blowing it away from the fire. Hopefully, the wind will die down shortly and the pilots will adjust to this obstacle. There are still many fires to be put out. Last night was a little more calm around our house, though, as the fires seem to be under control a little lower than they were the night before. Now if someone would just turn off the wind machine!

  8. Damn. Now it's running through my head too. All time classic rock. Updates on the fires?
  9. According to the Informador this morning there about 120 bush/forest fires active in Mexico. Seems kind of early for this.....(On a side note, I have the Deep Purples song constantly playing in my head. "Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky" 😊).
  10. Our gang has given up after alot of send backs and some soso food and bad attitude wait persons,...
  11. My well done salmon came partially uncooked or raw. Happened there 3 times 3 Visits was there had to send back each time. The outside looked done but inside not done. Mo
  12. Some macho-duck in a light brown large 4 door pickup today, did a massive donut on the lake side of the carraterra in a dirt parking lot, purposefully spraying clouds of dust and dirt all over the roadway in the process. Total bozo. Dangerous and stupid thing to do. A block further east, I passed a Chapala police pickup, he headed in that direction and pulled him over about 30 seconds later. Good to see it and I hope it continues.
  13. There is a lady selling all kinds of that stuff on Ajijic Plaza on weekends, check her out...
  14. I think I will be safe and skip it and watch on TV...

  16. Yesterday
  17. Dr. Jose Manual initial consult at his office in Guadalajara was 1200 pesos. It was an emergency vertebrae fracture requiring surgery at Country 2000. Consult at Quality Care every other Friday 1200 pesos.
  18. Anybody have any experience with Dr. Cardenas? He was recommended to us by a local doctor.
  19. If you buy the glasses, please make sure they are NASA/ISO certified. Your eyesight will thank you.
  20. Anyone who has lived here for years knows how Chapala and the cops work and are "motivated." Anyone who doesn't must have been living under a rock. Transito games around the holidays in particular are well known though I have to say those seem to have decreased significantly over the 15 years we've lived here. As noted previously, there are great numbers of legitimate and real violations for them to raise money off of these days. Maybe that's why the "conjured up variety have decreased.
  21. Yes, thanks. I did that as well and it's ridiculously MORE expensive, yikes! I may have to become a "distributor" just to be able to buy it at a decent price. Thanks, though. Still hoping someone local is a distributor. Before COVID, there were at least 2 in town. But with no one using lipstick for 2 years, their business dried up. Val
  22. These containers are gone. Have they been relocated to a new area? People really used them.
  23. Thanks Ibarra for giving me links so I could find out where he practices and what his phone number is. Does anyone know what his his initial consultation fee is in 2024? I could likely find out by researching Doctoralia.
  24. The helicopter just started getting water out of the Hotsson hotel extended stay pool. They have made several trips so far.
