I've already contacted BS, and don@riotrips.com (Don's website was down, hopefully the email gets through). I will be needing a guide for 1 week beginning August 15th and was wondering the rates, and recommendations. Thanks in advance. Please also hit my inbox in case i lose track of this thread.

You can contact Don at amerioca@hotmail.com I highly recommend. Hemp

thx hemp... =)

what happened to his website and email? He is probably losing lots of customers, he should have at least a server setup that bounces back email informing of his new one. Any internet expert can advise him on that

His new email is not very well known. I heard of a lot of people who are trying to contact him, without success.

If anyone wants to contact me, my email is all over the place or you can send a private message.

Thanks for the help Bill. Sorry for the confusion.
