Bancomer

Some of you have questioned whether Bancomer will accept checks drawn on a US Bank. So we spoke to Diego at Bancomer in Mulege and he said he will accept them as long as they are made out to FRANCISCO JAVIER ROSAS BAEZA. Most of us know him as Quito, last years prez of Rotary and assistant fire chief.

One of our member returned yesterday from a flight to Mulege. The description of conditions in town he gave me are pretty grim with the decay of organic matter and animal corpes causing an almost overwhelming odor. Yikes. And not a flushable toilet to be had unless you go down to the river with a bucket and fill the tank.

Our relief fund is growing quite nicely thanks to you generous Nomads and the Rotary clubs in the US and Canada. If you are sitting on the fence about whether to donate, let me assure you that the needs of the fine folks of Mulege for just basic subsistence type stuff will be an issue for some time to come.

So open your hearts and wallets for a great cause.

Thanks,
Randy
