    Food Drive for DIF Charity

    If anyone is coming to Penasco anytime before the end of the year, please bring some non-perishable food items to donate to DIF (or, maybe better, you can buy it here). You can drop them off at any of the Sonoran Resorts sales offices (just off the lobby of each resort) or with Rosie at the...

    "Box" for additional TV channels?

    I don't know where you are staying and I don't know about the other resorts but all of the Sonorans have a basic package with the all networks, CNN, Fox, ESPN, and a couple HBOs. I think that there are somewhere around 15 English stations total. It is an HOA thing and may be a little different...

    Yes, after the winners are determined, we will have them open on our website to read the whole stories. I'll add them to my newsletter over the next few months as well. Winners will be chosen by a panel of 10 judges ranking each story on a scale of 1 to 10. The highest total number will win.

    Gyros at El Greco's..?

    Really Bummed out today. Well, there is good news and bad news. El Greco was supposed to open again today so I stopped by for my Gyro fix only to find that the place looks different and had a Closed sign in the door. I talked to the folks inside and they told me that Louie had sold it to them...

    Bob, That's what the terms say. We can share it but you still own it and you always get credit for it if we do share it.

    Sonoyta Bridge?

    We had several people come in today. All said that there was no delay and everyone was getting through. The last people that I spoke with came through around 2:30 this afternoon. The almost universal warning was "just watch out for the huge potholes".

    Sonoyta Bridge?

    I went up to Lukeville and back today. Got there about 2:00 and crossed a little more than a foot of water on the bridge. By the time I finished with the Post Office etc the road barely had any water over top on the way back. Glad that I went when I did because it looks pretty bad in that...

    Sonoyta Bridge?

    The border is open but the bridge is flooded. I had to run to the post office today and didn't make it. I did see lots of cars and trucks waiting around. I did see water flowing over their dumb little detour bridge. I did not see anything else out of the ordinary in Sonoyta. I hope to go again...

    Penasco Sea Port is "Imminent," Casinos, Duty Free Stores a Must

    I heard that it is still a go as planned but construction won't be starting until Spring 2013. No problem, that's only a few months away. I did hear from a very good source, but it's not built until it's built.

    Private Elementary School in PP

    My kids - thankfully only 2, not 4 :) do go to CIMA. This is their 4th year and I am very happy with the school. My kids like it very much as well. I'd be happy to answer any questions that you may have but, actually, my wife is the one who handles things at school most of the time.

    Ramon's

    I try not to say much here but I feel that I need to chime in. I have known Ramon for many years and he is a first class chef. He has catered some events for the Sonoran's and has always done a bang up job - no complaints at all. And, as far as the locals are concerned, he is probably still in...
