Wednesday Movie
The movie this week is Australia starring Nicole Kidman.   In northern Australia before World War II, an English aristocrat who inherits a sprawling ranch reluctantly makes a pact with a stockman in order to protect her new property from a takeover plot.  As the pair drive 2,000 head of cattle over unforgiving landscape, they experience the bombing of Darwin, Australia, by Japanese forces firsthand.  Showtime is 7:15 p.m. at the Ramada. Thanks to the Ellingsons for sponsoring this event and to Fred Hills for loaning this week's DVD.

Let's Do Lunch
EE Book Discussion Group members are going to lunch at the Stables in Tubac on Friday, June 30, and any Esperanza resident is welcome to come.  If you would like to go, please contact Linda Sielken (908-240-1887) by Wednesday and meet at the Ramada at 11:30 (this is a change from the original meeting time) to car pool.

There's Still Time to Trim Those 'Lightning Rods'
Lightning fire concerns make trimming your tall palms a must in EE. June 30 is the deadline. The HOA will arrange for any untrimmed palms to be trimmed after that date, with the cost plus a surcharge of 50% billed to the homeowner.
