Great Trip

From Vigan, we were off for La Union.

The moment we checked our bags, we decided to go up to Baguio for dinner. Met with our long time dealer in the area, Doc Karen. Discussed schedules for deliveries and talked about marketing her growers' produce. We also asked a friend to join us for some coffee and talked about future projects.

We went to Gilligan's in Legarda. You have to go see the group Smooth, that is at Gilligan's Mondays and Wednesdays. I was so enamored with their music. The selection and the blending of voices....really my type!

Meetings, dinner and music done...it was time to leave Makati, errrrr Baguio (it was so crowded and the faces you see are the Manila group too). It was fresh oxygen, when the thought of driving down to La Union was started.

Holy Week is not my time to travel. I prefer that these days are taken in solace. This year was different. One of my friends, Mitos, is celebrating her 50th. So, it was agreed to be all together. Good that La Union was the meeting place, as it was near my work appointments for the week.

Great opportunity to practice my new Canon DSLR! After all those clicks done, I think I want to take a course in Photography :) My friends are just so happy now that they have tons of photos.

Watching the sunset...

Later on, Doc Rey comes back and said we should stay a little more on the beach as a floating Stations of the Cross will start as soon as the Sun sets....it was a sight. Simple but it made you pray in the calmness. By that time the Churches were busy with the Visita Iglesia.

Last day for Mitos' 49th. In transit....not dragged, but moving and getting there :)
You wouldn't want to see her 1st photo as 50...

Thunderbird Resort in Poro Point. It was like an Oasis. A refreshing site in the middle of the dessert. The Blues and Whites all around was calming and you are transported to a time in Greece.

Doesn't my friend Jessica make a double take for Jackie O?

View from the Resto/Bar of Thunderbird Poro Point. If you want peace and quiet from it all, this may be a place for you. No beach area in front, you have to walk to the right side a bit for a swimming area, or you may enjoy the resort's swimming pool.

A very productive week indeed....Next stop...search for Mark Floro!

No Obligation

We did a seminar yesterday in Greenhills for a private charity of an individual. She gives livelihood then buys back the chickens to sell, to help her chosen groups. Mostly resettlement areas, a major Television/Radio network liked her projects and had done similar ones. Their respective projects are in place now, but they want the employees to be more aware.

They have partnered and Mrs Private Charity will now purchase network's harvests too.

We got several calls for this free seminar and we accepted some to join. Sadly, I turned down some as I was embarrassed to decide to announce it when this was supposed to be a private seminar.

Surely the network's foundation's liasons were there. Mrs Private Charity's employees were there. But guess who were most excited and came with photos of their farm? The blog readers who walked in after requesting attendance :)

They were not obligated to sit in, not directed to be there...and most of all, not tasked to take care of chickens.

As we say, in everything you do....you should love it passionately!

Thank you that our blog guests were included in the merienda. Thank you, but no thank you, to the seminar fee being given to Doc Rey. We love what we are doing and the seminars are not our source of income. I asked that the "fee" be given to Mrs Private Charity's choice group.

Greenhills Seminar

A TV network's foundation is working with a private individual's charitable livelihood and marketing of produce. The turn around for projects had been successful and now they want to make sure they are doing the proper ways before taking it to a higher level.

In this light, they want their key people to learn how to raise our Sunshines, so they may re-echo to the recipients, at the same time, they will know the product they are marketing.

We are doing a seminar for that group in an office in Greenhills, on Monday, August 10 at 3pm.

If you are interested, call me at (0917) 847-2639...I am sure I can accommodate you to join in that FREE seminar.

Ghenel P/S In Kalentong Brings Sunshines To San Juan

They saw us when Manila Bulletin featured the photo of our chicks, and called re: dealership.

Sunshines now available in San Juan.

Introducing Ghenel P/S in Blumentrit near corner F Manalo. I will say this in the place called Kalentong. Very near the corner of Shaw Blvd.

Angel, the owner, was raised in this type of business. She knows and loves what she is doing. It surely shows in her smile :)
