There may be an issue with the hours that this service is available since Don O. went on Wednesday @ 5PM and he said the car wash was closed. c.) Magda wanted us all to be aware that there is still a very large bobcat (possibly two of them) in the area. Don’t leave your pets outside unattended. Also, don’t leave food and water (for pets) outside. Bo suggested closing off doggie doors at night. D.) Bo also gave us a medical hint about arthritis caused cysts in the area of finger joints – don’t drain them since this leaves a portal for bacteria.
