I am truly sorry I suggested to Irene that she do what so many others have done. Yes, she is new to nomads, but there are many who have known her and
her business for years---many who were not aware of the rooms.
She feared being called self-promoting and I assured her not to worry about it. I told her I would help her set up the signature and suggested the
following.
1. She post about the changes at Don Diego's and say that she is the owner
2. We get the web-site into her signature
3. She continue to join the discussion on other threads as she had started doing and share her knowledge and experiences in Baja as she has been
there for so long.
4. When there were special events or changes at Don Diego's, she post about it.
I am just really sorry and have personally apologized to her for someone calling her "self-promoting"---the thing she wanted to avoid. And it was my
fault for encouraging her for getting involved. Using the phrase "self-promoting" was truly a rude welcome to someone who many know and who has been
a part of Baja for many, many years.
Thank you for posting Doug---it is up to you to decide. I am just sorry her worst fear came true.
This was my mistake and it will not happen again----I appreciate what you do Doug and how you handle things. And I can't imagine that you would have
used such insulting language.

Oh Diane
I want to thank you for what you have done. Please do not feel bad that is ok for me. I did get another really nice person to tell he how to put my
signature on. If Doug feels that I have done something wrong than so be it. I was told of this site my someone who stayed with us a few weeks ago
and he posted that we had rooms he has stayed with us many times. that person did stay with us and he told me how to add my signature.
We are a pretty laid back place. It has always been that those that stay with us are some of the best on the Baja because we have always been word of
month. Not everyone loves the Baja some are just hiding and those are not what we want. I know I am one of the best places on the Baja as i have
been told that for many years. I have been here myself since april 1981. this is my only home. We have tried always to make people feel at home with
us. As I am one who thinks I will treat someone the way I want to be treated.
Thanks again Diane, Larry and Robert you all know your welcome here any time.
I will post when I can about what I might know.
thanks

one more suggestion.
put the "http://www." in front of posadadondiego.com in your signature and it will become a hotlink (clickable to go right to your website).

I'm "it" - as in, I'm the only person that's currently carrying out any moderation determinations as to if a posting is better suited for the
Classifieds section (or not).
Maybe that helps clarify... maybe not....

Wed afternoon greetings amigos and amigas ~
Irene, congratulations on your 'thri-vival' and best fishes for much continued happiness!
I continue to drop in here now-n-then to see whats happening .. I used to do so more often to reply to a query I felt I could provide a helpful or at
least useful bit of info to.
When I read posts/threads that provoke thinking, consideration, and feel I can provide a useful reply I do so .. I am truly in awe of some writing
skills of some nomads .. and their ability to convey thoughts & feelings ..
Just wanted to lend my support is all ..
Cabo San Lucas today .. lots of Yellowfin Tuna 6 miles out from the lighthouse ..
"CABO MAGIC" is in the Bisbees East Cape Event .. thanks for the well wishes <wink wink smile smile>
www.cabomagic.com need to add that to signature!
edited to add signature .. hope I did it right .. and thanks for that suggestion!

Irene, do you remember Tom & Shirley Miller and the Mexico West group campouts at Posada Don Diego...? I was at two in 1984. We filled the place I
think...

I travel back and forth quiet often to BCS... not just a once a year vacation. We travel during the week with our animals and sometimes a trailer for
the ATV's. Do you take dogs in the room (to sleep on the floor) and is there a place to park the trailer? Are reservations recommended if traveling
during the week?
Thanks for providing another service for Baja travelers

Shirley was done with her Costa Rica thing and back in the U.S. , up in the Northwest (Washington?)... We emailed some a few years ago then ? Haven't
heard from her in awhile. Perhaps Hugh and Carol of Discover Baja have some news... Shirley was great lady!
Sadly, I haven't been right to your place since 1985, I don't believe... That needs to change! Thank you...

Thanks, David for the information on Shirley. Yes she was a really neat lady.
Like I said before we really only get the best to stay here.
I have said for many years if you stayed at the rest now you can stay at the best. The Posada don Diego.

I hope you do stop by some time I am sure you will like what you see. Come in and relax.

Yes we allow dogs in our rooms. We know many people and they like to come and stay the dogs.
Yes we have plenty of room to park a trailer you can put in right in front of your room or you can park in an rv space with full hook-up our park has
only about 75 spaces now as 25 has full timers. We have many pull thru
reservation for the park not necessary but for the room it is good get. Either email or call.
thanks irene

Posado Don Diego has been our standard stop in the way home from Baja trips since 1981. Several generations of family dogs have stayed with us
there. I remember a St Bernard (Bruno?) who used to live there. Over the years we have had many good meals there. And great margaritas, which we
occasionally over indulged in. This caused them to be named the "margaritas of death". In fact we would as often say "the margaritas of death place"
as "Posado Don Diego". Thanx for the memories Irene.
