We also had an excellent experience with Dr. Valenzuela . He wrote analysis for our doctor in Canada and he was very impressed by the scope and presentation.

Multi purpose Development West of Ajijic
Islander replied to Tomas's topic in Ajijic/Chapala/Guadalajara
Tres Cañadas is the multipurpose development area name. I believe that La Pueblita (assisted living?) is only one part of it. -
Multi purpose Development West of Ajijic
Islander replied to Tomas's topic in Ajijic/Chapala/Guadalajara
If you are talking about Tres Cañadas its been in development forever and you are right not much talk about it anywhere. At one point I did see a house there for rent though. -
It used to be an Absolut Fenix .....the original club was called "Bananas", established by Dixie (Nicholson) way before Flip came on the Ajijic scene. .....If I remember correctly.

Shaw is being bought by Rogers communications. Game might change.

Bats do not like light. Put a flood light there.

We are not down there right now but I'd like to thank you for the warning anyway, Artsnob. It happens way too often. Something to be always aware of. Good job on your quick action.

Thanks MC. I do not know where people see any comparisons in this chart. I only see statistics of total deaths in certain age groups for flu 2018 and Covid 19 2020 The data was provided by government and Wikipedia (see on the bottom ) which is usually more trustworthy than the info on another social media platforms Except, Covid 19 season is not over yet.. So it should say so far...

Cumbres Chula Vista Norte - Potable Water
Islander replied to Carnivore's topic in Ajijic/Chapala/Guadalajara
I remember having lots of problems in CVN with the water supply when we stayed there. I thought that the first time we stayed it was anomaly but we had the some problems the next winter too. That was couple of years ago so it may have changed. Do you live there Mostlylost? Do you know the situation now? Loved it there otherwise. We have lost our contacts there. -

I do not see any difference between asking here which browser to use and which solar panel to use or which appliance, cigar, medicine. mask, butter (etc) why is research on one subject more valuable than other? Technology is important part of our lives wherever we live.

I am following the air quality regularly. Today, Lakeside is "good"....but avoid Guadalajara if you have any lung problems

Looking for Dra. Claudia Camacho, ophthalmologist
Islander replied to Lexy's topic in Ajijic/Chapala/Guadalajara
Waiting for a specialists appointment in Canada for 6 months is pretty normal. Actually, most are much longer than that. I am just commenting on how good you (we) have it at Lakeside ....in case someone will say "but we are in Mexico not Canada" I was a patient of her mother in early 2000's . She was also very capable and popular . -
Any service.
-
For implants.... I would use dr. Haro.

That is a beauty, Mostlylost.

Previous winter we rented a house Lakeside where the owner had dozens of orchids hanging outside in orange and mango trees . No one really cared for them. A sprinkle hit them once a day but it was potted in a very loose medium (moss and bark) in little wooden crates with narrow slats far apart so the water just drained through quickly and roots were hanging our.. I was amazed how much they bloomed on what seemed like a neglect. We never met the owner (just manager) but he had to be an orchid enthusiast as there was also an orchid greenhouse with assortment of climate control equipment but it was empty. All the plants were in the trees and also some in the pots around the property.. like this cymbidium Personally. I have not much success with them either.

How many restaurants here will be gone forever?
Islander replied to Mainecoons's topic in Ajijic/Chapala/Guadalajara
Until one sneezes (or coughs) on it just before its packed for delivery. Or lick their fingers. Not everyone is wearing mask. I like RV's approach because we are in the vulnerable category. -

There are few hands handling your food or product not just delivery people. -
At least the police officer gave me a choice.
Islander replied to Eric Blair's topic in Ajijic/Chapala/Guadalajara
I did not find the OP's post offensive. He explained what happened (in detail) and asked if anybody knows if there is a discount when paid in time. No different then 95% inquirers here. He did not argue, complimented the officer for being nice and wearing mask. What is wrong with that? He acknowledged the problem with his title line (by original critic) and eventually got his answer. The rest was unnecessary. Sometimes it feels that this place is a hornet nest. No matter what you say you get stung . Its been like this for a long time and will be forever unless the main players change. I know that many people follow this board for information but do not want to take any part in it. Just sift through to get the important part (thanks for that "jrod") and maybe treat the rest as an entertainment (with no value ). Sorry, had to say it. -
Please read this, our lives depend on it!
Islander replied to Alpha1's topic in Ajijic/Chapala/Guadalajara
This is such a useless discussion. All the "intelligent" people know that you will never convince the other side because "their truth" is different from "your truth" (learned that expression from a Canadian indigenous lady and have adopted it) That goes for any ideology, political view. religion etc. .....arguing your point makes no difference what so ever...... to either side of the spectrum. -

I like the location and hope that the developers will succeed in finishing it.

What "bmh" said applies to handmade carpets from Turkey as well. Do not know about machine made. Sorry. I would try upholstery shop.
