Ready or NOT.....

Here we come. Limited engagement. Tues 28th - Tues 4th. Better get busy and clean the party debris out of our house! It'll be good to see y'all. Hear monsoon action may be scarce for the next week. Oh well.

I received this email from Ann-Marie and Phil this evening. I walked the property and saw no one but I think it is important that we always report these things to each other, as the Hall's did.

Tonight at about 7 p.m.we had a knock on the door - the bedroom ALLEY door.

After several hard knocks (we were eating) we answered it to a gentleman in

a nice shirt, tie who was selling PROTECH Security Systems. Hi shame was

Mike Lorona. It was very odd, to say the least ....to knock on an alley

door? Not the front door? And ask about security?

Anyone else get such an inquiry?

Anne-Marie and Phil

I think it is suspicious for someone to go to the back door of a home and ask if they can sell the occupants a security system. The point being does the home have security or not. So... If you see this man or hear from here do not hesitate to call the police. They need to hear about these types of "salesmen" and we need a log of anything suspicious that happens in the Mercado District.

Dia de San Juan Pfotos

Dear Mercado Bloggers
Here's some of my perceptions of Dia de San Juan.

Hey from the Northwest

Hi Everyone -
After a two-week road trip - fun but sort of exhausting - we are ensconced in our little summer place. Happy to be here, but also missing our Mercado friends and wishing we could beam ourselves down for the 4th of July festivities. Sounds as if there is a total BLAST in the making. Have a wonderful time celebrating the birth of : first and foremost - JUSTIN !!!! , our Mercado community.... and oh yeah - our nation :-)
Thank you to the friends (you know who you are) who went out of their way to secure our home after the big BLOW the other day. So great to live in a place where everyone looks out for one another. With no apologies to Garrison Keillor. "The Mercado - where all the women are brilliant, the men are total studs, and the children are perfect.... and so are the dogs" (and cats and turtles)
Here's a shot of us so you don't forget what we look like.....and one of the Cascade Mountains taken about 25 miles from our house.
Miss you and see you later this month. xoxoxo Jane and Gordo
