What do you love the most in Rocky Point? The sea breeze? The tranquility of our town? The people? Each one of us will have a different yet correct answer to this question.

Where has an entire month gone by? As usual I sit down to write my monthly contribution all stressed out because as there is always too much to do and too little time.

I’ve had clients coming to me looking for all kinds of items that do not exist in any catalog, so my job is to start from scratch. I have to be confident enough that we can deliver what we promise on time, with safety, functionality, quality and aesthetics.

I must start by telling you all about the Eddie Awards. During this third edition of the contest we broke every record by having sixty-two personalities of the Arts & Crafts of Puerto Peñasco being nominated to be awarded.

The closing of the year couldn’t have been better! We even had Santa Claus over at the store for the holidays!

We are starting the year with much enthusiasm about life and new goals. We have lots to work toward in the months ahead and just as everybody else has their goals, I am sure you have yours, many of which I am sure involve our beloved town of Rocky Point.

Yes, December is here, good bye 2014!

Life changes at the speed of light and with no exception 2014 has brought us many good things to us all.

Diseños Casa y Jardín as a store has made new cus

Thank you again for your continued business throughout the year. We just had our annual sale in September with great discounts (40 and 50% off) to show you how much we appreciate your patronizing us for all these years!

Last August over 200 people got together at our gallery and design center Diseños Casa y Jardín for a special night. As a photographer I have had my work on display permanently at our store and there have been some occasions I have taken part in collective exhibitions. I must tell you, I wanted to take part in a very important landscape photography contest but I needed to have a formal exhibition of my own to meet the criteria.

Diseños Casa y Jardín has been open for eleven years so far, during this time, we have seen good and bad times, we have been busy and we have been very quiet, however we are a company with a deep sense of social responsibility. As you know we have a strong commitment with the community of local artists in Puerto Peñasco, in the last years we have held three different contests, one to find our current company logo and two to recognize the outstanding performance of certain talents.

Last May 24th, a handful of members of CANACO (Cámara Nacional de Comercio) traveled to Phoenix for a special meeting. The chamber was invited by the Costco Business Center to visit their facilities. As vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, I found the meeting very productive since it allows members of Canaco in Puerto Peñasco additional benefits in their membership with Costco.
