Greetings to our 8,517 subscribers

It has been another beautiful, sunny week in Sayulita as we approach the end of January. Surfers and paddle boarders are enjoying the fun waves out on our bay and there will be plenty of happenings in town in the upcoming weeks. Last week we mentioned a new El Sayulero column, "Sayulita Is For Everybody". In this edition, our contributor Timothy Kelly interviews Rollie of Rollie's Restaurant where he relates his interesting story of how he arrived to Sayulita and now calls it "home" during part of the year. Also, this week Grupo Pro Sayulita elected a new president on Wednesday evening, Nick Sherman was announced as the new GPS president. Read about Nick Sherman in his article below. Nick will be contributing articles about Grupo Pro Sayulita's efforts and community programs in upcoming El Sayulero editions. Eric Rudd, who was GPS president for three years and wrote the weekly GPS articles will continue writing for El Sayulero with his new column, Pueblo Magico where he will be highlighting some of the things in Sayulita that make our town a magical place to live and visit.
Thank you to all our readers and contributors of El Sayulero!
Lindsay Walter
Editor, El Sayulero

Question of the Week:
Do you think it's important to keep
El Sayulero in Spanish?
|
"I read your Spanish edition of the Sayulero, and I feel the translation is important because it's a publication written in Mexico about a Mexican town. I think it would be a big mistake and offensive for many people that live in this town and aren't fully bilingual to not have the translation."
"Yo leo el Sayulero, en su edición en Español y siento que es importante porque al ser una publicación que se edita en Mexico y sobre un pueblo mexicano. Pienso que seria un gran error, e incluso, una ofensa para muchas personas que viven en este pueblo de Sayulita, y que no dominan."

Sayulita Is for Everybody:
Interview with Rollie
|
By Timothy Kelly
 | | Photo by Sean Galloway |
You know him as the voice of Rollie's Restaurant, the man who warms your heart with his smile and genuine "welcome to Rollie's". He is an educator by trade, actor by passion, restauranteur, husband, father, and grandfather. And, he is one of a very few people who has no known enemies, and scores of friends. Of course, unless you've never been to Sayulita, you know by now that I am talking about Rollie Dick, owner of Rollie's Restaurant. With his beautiful wife, Jeanne, at his side, Rollie will transform your dining experience into a "love-fest". But, Rollie wasn't always a restauranteur in Sayulita. In fact, the story of how he came down to our lovely pueblo is as interesting as he is today. Read entire interviewUstedes lo conocen como la voz del restaurante Rollie, el hombre que calienta tu corazón con su sonrisa y genuino "bienvenido a Rollie". Él es un educador de profesión, actor por la pasión, restaurador, esposo, padre y abuelo. Y, él es uno de un puñado de gente que no tiene enemigos conocidos, y decenas de amigos. Por supuesto, a menos que nunca han estado en Sayulita, usted sabe ahora que estoy hablando de Rollie Dick, dueño del restaurante Rollie. Con su bella esposa, Jeanne, a su lado, Rollie transformará su experiencia de cenar en un "amor-fest". Pero, Rollie no siempre fue dueño de un restaurante en Sayulita. De hecho, la historia de cómo llegó a nuestro precioso pueblo es tan interesante como lo es hoy. Leer toda la entrevista

New Column: Pueblo Magico
|
I've stopped writing as president of GPS but I thought I'd continue a column in some form. The question was-- what should be my theme? I'm an artist, so perhaps I could write about aesthetic issues or highlights in town. Sayulita has a lot of attractive features. So many, in fact, that we can almost consider ourselves a "Pueblo Magico." More
He dejado de escribir como presidente de GPS, pero pensé que continuar una columna en alguna forma. La pregunta era - ¿cuál debería ser mi tema? Soy un artista, por lo que tal vez podría escribir sobre cuestiones estéticas o reflejos en la ciudad. Sayulita tiene muchas características atractivas. Tantos, de hecho, que casi podemos considerarnos un "Pueblo Mágico." Mas

Pet of the Week: "Paloma"
|
My name is Paloma. I am a fun, smart and sweet girl dog. People say I'm "exuberant." I love to play with other dogs and really want a family. My foster dad put a dog collar on me and I almost did somersaults. It feels so good to belong - even if it's just temporary. I'm soft and cuddly but not a wimp and I run really fast. Before my foster parents found me I lived on the street near a taco stand. It took a day or two but now I've learned to like dog food. I'm still kinda skinny but my foster mom makes a mean dish of kibble with a little wet food mixed in. I'll probably gain a couple pounds real soon. I'm very friendly with all humans - big and small. In fact, I'm so socialized that I think people thought I already had a home. Turns out, that's right, I'm a simple street and beach dog. I need love just like everybody else - and will give it back big time. Please consider me to be your new pet.

Soy Paloma. Soy divirtida, inteligente y dulce. La gente dice que soy exuberante. Me encanta jugar con otros perros y quiero tener a una familia. El que me cuida ahorita me puso un collar y me emocione mucho. Siente bien saber que pertenezco a alguien - aunque sea por un corto tiempo. Soy suave y me gustan los carinos y corro muy rapido. Me encontraron en la calle por un puesto de tacos. Tarde unos dias pero ahora me gustan las croquetas. Soy flaca pero es probable que voy a subir de peso pronto. Soy amigable con los seres humanos y mucha gente creia que ya tenia hogar. Resulta que soy perra de la calle y la playa. Necesito amor como todos y regreso el amor que me dan. Favor de considerarme para ser tu mascota.
