Used laptop needed

In anticipation of my trip to Puerto Vallarta in September, we phoned our friend Nacho (who lives in PV) last night.  (If you’ve read the Buzz for awhile you’ll remember Nacho from this past Christmas.)

He’s very excited we’re coming, and of course wanted to know all our flight information so he can pick us up at the airport.  (Nacho’s the best taxi driver – always stops for cold cerveza!)

He and the hubby got talking and Nacho asked about the cost of laptops here in Canada.  (He says they are “too essspensive” in Mexico.)  We told him probably about 6000 pesos for a cheap one (about $500 Canadian) and poor Nacho had himself a Mexican heart attack!  (Keep in mind that the DAILY minimum wage in Mexico is almost $3 less than our HOURLY minimum wage.)  He asked if we could instead try to find a “laptop usado” (used) for his teenage son Alexis.  (Left to right in photo: Alexis, Jasmine, Wilver – Nacho’s children.)

So, if anyone happens to have a laptop (that isn’t completely ancient) with wireless capabilities and is in decent shape that they are willing to sell, please send me an email at infoATgoldriverbuzzDOTcom.

French Kiss will be closing it’s doors

via Terra Mather:

Peggy would like to say THANK YOU very much for all your support…its been a pretty successful summer so far, but as of October 1, the business will be closed.  Spencer has decided to pursue other dreams, and Peggy cannot run the shop alone.

PLEASE use all gift cards before September 28th, after that they will be considered void.

On a side note…if you’ve not tried the crepes (my favourite are the crepes Suzzette)….then do yourself a favour, they are H E A V E N ! ;o)

Back to school soon

Ah yes.  It will soon be that time of the year again.  New clothes in the closet, labels on school supplies, fresh paper in binders and eager minds ready to learn! :)

My two are excited to go back to school this year.  Mikayla said she’s looking forward to it as it gets her one year closer to graduation.  (I hear ya, kiddo!)

If your kids are like mine and can never manage to bring home school newsletters or notices, here are a couple documents you might find handy:

2010-2011 School Calendar

School Supply List RWES

School is back in session on Wednesday, Sept 8th! Happy 2010/11 school year everyone!

Buttle Lake Teen Campout

via Ryan DelBlanc:

It’s time to get away for the night and head to Buttle Lake for some camping.  We will spend some time at the water, eat some good food, play some fun games and have some campfire time (minus the campfire of course).

The cost is $10 and of course you need a waiver signed (Thanks Parents!!). The van will leave the Thrive Centre at 7pm Friday August 20th, and will be back by 12pm on Saturday. If you can get out earlier we will have people at the campsite.  Bring everything you need for an overnight trip: sleeping bag, clothes, toiletries, flashlight, Bible etc.  We will bring the tents.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me!
