  2. Steren will take them, and in the past I have taken mine to the Ajijic "city hall" across the street from the plaza on Colon
  3. . If you don't look at other forums, why do we have them? Good question. I never look in them.
  4. No, it does not. Many, most, of us would not see it there. I saw the article in the paper.
  5. I will be curious what you find. I love my Paperwhite and also read several hours a day. It is a few years old and I hope it lasts several more. I do not know about ad blockers. I bought mine sometime during COVID.
  6. I thought it was 11:40 AM in Guadalajara, but I guess not.
  7. The Ajijic Clinic is not on the approved list. Cruz Roja is the best and easiest to get.
  8. I have used Gualberto for years. My washing machine has been seen several times. Over the years they have also come several times for my oven insert. Refrigerator..... They are my first choice for anything in the kitchen plush the washing machine and dryer
  9. OK! What is the correct and legal way that a person coming down the Libramiento goes to Walmart?
  10. Your map (picture) is on the wrong side of the carretera.
  11. The way I would go to Walmart coming down the Libramiento is make a left turn on to the Carretera. Go east and make the first right turn down. Go a short distance down and turn right. You are now heading west. Drive straight ahead up the hill and go straight and make a left turn into Walmart. However, I agree with Ferret, only people arriving from the west are allowed to shop at Walmart. Guess where I live.
  12. 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.
  13. As far as I know, we are not in the path of the eclipse ?

  15. Interesting. Yesterday (Tues, 26th), the Chapala mailman delivered me another new Telmex bill. Guess what, I am now back to $388.00 again.

  17. Speaking of Telmex...my telephone bill went up from $389 (for months/years) to $468 last month. I am not complaining but I have not heard if this was an across-the-board increase. It came as a new bill delivered last month.
  18. Does not begin to compare to SHAW but it is the only thing available. Many problems. Lost sound yesterday. It was fixed from Florida via satellite sometime after I switched Netflix. I still lose the satellite daily but I think they are close to fixing that.
  19. My Social Security has been deposited every month automatically into my account.
  20. Does that mean that pedestrians wishing to cross east to west on the north side no longer have a safe time to cross?
  21. I have been hooked up to Kiwisat since the middle of December. It requires a fair amount of computer work but Ajijic Electronics will help you. They have 771 channels and it costs $708/6 months. The Kiwisat receiver was shipped to Ajijic Electronics. Once they have your receiver they will come to your house and adjust your satellite. Mine points east and is almost on the roof surface. They install your receiver etc. This cost $8000 pesos. Now, I have had nothing but problems with the Kiwisat system. Almost every night, including the very first night I lose the satellite signal, and off goes the TV. It may, or may not come back on. I cannot begin to explain how complicated this is, and how often, or long it last per night. After a couple of weeks, Kiwisat Miami sent a signal boost to my receiver. This did not help. Unplugging the TV and re-plugging it back in does not help. Sample: Last night was good: I turned my TV on at 4 pm. The TV came on with a perfect picture and sound. Thirty minutes later I noticed the lips were not moving on the person speaking. I knew then that I would lose picture and sound. I was lucky, about one hour later, when I was fixing dinner I heard the TV begin to make noise, and it did come on. I do not watch TV after 7 PM. This is because, unlike SHAW you cannot tell what is programmed on the channels you want to watch. For example: I want to know what is coming on NBC, ABC, and CBS, at 7 pm, 8 pm, and 9 pm. This is not available. Lastly, I hear there are other people who are now on Kiwisat who do not have my problem. This tells me that the problem is at my end. I think it is the receiver. I need Ajijic Electronics to rule out the connection, and then get me a new Kiwisat receiver box. I will forever miss SHAW after 21 years.
  22. I did not think it ever stopped. I never answer my home phone. There is an answering machine if they want to leave a message. I never answer my cell phone unless the cell phone identifies the caller, or I am expecting a call from someone/business who the phone would not identify. The phone identifies several a week as spam and asks if I want that number blocked and deleted. Which I always do.
  23. Another idea, when they arrive at the airport go to one of the ATM machine and get pesos that way.
  24. My precinct in Seattle, Washington is very good about sending me my ballot for 21 years.
