Have a GREAT FESTIVAL!!!

The entrance to Lomas del Pacifico (Pacific Hills -- or Hills of Peace), looks a tetch like guards with Uzis would hang in the guard shack, no???
I don't think so, but since it is DIRECTLY across MEX 200 from the entrance to THE NIGHT OF THE IGUANA movie set ruins, I HAD to check it out!!!
Fearing "DEATH BY DROGAS MAFIA" I took no pictures.
We all remember THIS!!!
Did you think it was a JOKE???
1. I had not driven past Jed's house since I first returned to Mexico in spring 2012 -- and I was MOST CURIOUS why this GORGEOUS Spanish Colonial four-level home (with four bedrooms so private from each other -- it could be a guest house), THREE kitchens, six baths, a pool, and a hammock hut (it is just shy of 5,000 square feet), had not sold in FOUR YEARS of being listed, despite a recent price-drop from $699,000.00 USD to $499,000.00.
2. I found that SMACK DAB up AGAINST Jed's house (he built to the edge of the property line -- on both sides), an ENORMOUS concrete building is being erected -- several stories high at street level (meaning that more levels descend the near cliff-face), and the front sports only a three-car-wide door, with SOLID CONCRETE WALL rising two stories -- is THIS any way to build a HOUSE???
I drove on down Ave. Ava Gardner (a tortured U-shaped street that empties on both ends onto MEX 200), and found some friendly neighbors, whom I asked. THEY had no idea WHAT the new neighborhood monstrosity was -- hotel or house -- but said that UNFORTUNATELY, there being no zoning, ANYTHING could be built (let's hope its not a SLAUGHTER HOUSE, no???).
Jed had to not only CUT his price -- but BLOCK it from being rented, the noise and debris of construction making it IMPOSSIBLE.
I truly feel bad for Jed -- he told me in 2010 that the place was "an albotross hung on my neck." And NOW it is FAR WORSE.
