Mesquite NV Garage Door Local Service - One night, at about 4:00, we woke up abruptly because of a huge sonic boom that shook the whole house.  Or so we thought.  It was actually the spring on the garage door suddenly breaking.  Scary loud.  Once we figured out what the noise was, we were relieved until the next morning, when I realized that we could not even open the garage door manually.  Kind of hard to go to work showing homes without my car.

I called my usual Mesquite home repair guy, Shane McCoy, who gave me John Barrett's number.  Shane said, 'he will take good care of you.'  And John did - I called him, he brought a new spring with him and had me out and about in a very short time.

John is the local Mesquite garage door guy - he lives right here in town.  Repairs, new door, custom door, small door, RV garage door, he will get it for you.  And he can fix any garage door.  No job too large, no job too small. 

Hard work, but John seems to enjoy it - always has a smile for you, too!

New Year's Eve lunch at the Home Plate diner in Mesquite - - I met Arlene in 2007 - she and her husband Windy were looking for a new home.  We spent some time together and found just the right home for them.  During that process, we became good friends.  Later we discovered that we share the same birthday!  But we are both very busy and haven't been able to get together much this year.  Finally we met this afternoon for lunch.

Arlene had never been to the Home Plate Diner - a fairly new restaurant in Mesquite.  It is one of my favorite places to eat in Mesquite, so I got to treat her to a new experience.  We really enjoyed the time together - as we left, we realized that we had been there for over 2 hours.  The waiter was terrific, refilled our cokes as we took up his table and just visited.

The Home Plate Diner is a 50's style restaurant, with burgers and milkshakes, as well as a breakfast and dinner menu.  My favorite is their sliders with onion rings.  Today, we both had the Philidelphia Steak Sandwich with onion rings - excellent.

We got a kick out of the 50's decor - it really looks like an old time diner from the 1950's - not that either of us is old enough to remember those original places!  The jukebox looks authentic, but plays CD's.  Rock and Roll!

The Fonz would fit right in there, with Richie Cunningham sitting in a booth with the boys.

Great food, wonderful company - and I was glad to spend some special time on the last day of 2010 with my good friend Arlene.  Happy New Year!

Mesquite NV Pest Control

Mesquite NV Pest Control - One of my 'jobs' as a Mesquite NV real estate agent is to take care of some of the move-in details for my home buyers.  One important detail is to spray for pest control.  Mesquite is in the Nevada desert and we do have pests here.  I'm not talking about the neighbor kid riding his bike across the petunias or picking one of your pride and joy cactus blooms.  I am talking about bugs - after all, it is a desert out there - we need some pest control and prevention.

Most new home builders spray for termites before they pour the concrete but that does not help with other pest prevention.

I do not want my buyers to move into their new home and see that somebody else has already moved in.  And by 'somebody else', I mean a bug - like a spider.

And if you see one bug, you probably have more.  Or you will have more soon.  Bugs have a lot of friends and family.  Bugs have a lot of get-togethers.  Bugs are not loners.

So I have one more job to do for my buyers.

I call Jesse's Pest Control every time I have an escrow about to close.  Jesse comes out to the house right as soon as escrow closes and sprays the home in and out.

He goes through the whole home, spraying that magic stuff that kills those little creepy crawlers and keeps them away.

Jesse gives the garage an extra dose and does the patios and into the yard.

OK, we're safe!  Jesse does such a good job for me and my clients - I recommend him to everyone.

Jesse takes care of my own house, too.  After the first pest spraying I have Jesse come back every month or so and spray the outside again - that is usually all it takes to keep bugs out of the house.  I have such a spider phobia that I have him do the inside of my house every few months.

If you need someone to spray your home to get rid of and prevent little creepy pests from hanging around with their friends in your home, I recommend Jesse's Pest Control.

Give Jesse a call - (702) 346-2224 or (435) 229-7171

( Tell him I sent you - I'm always bugging him :)

Jesse looks like such a nice clean cut  young man, doesn't he?  He's not.  He's a killer - bug killer.

My friend Arlene called to take me to lunch - we were in the mood for Mexican food and decided to try Mia's at their new location on Pioneer Parkway - right next to the Dollar Store.  I have been many times to their previous location on Mesquite Blvd - they have been in business for almost 5 years and are a local favorite - great food!

They have a patio outside with tables to enjoy dining in our sunny Mesquite weather.

The owner, Domingo, met us at the door and ushered us right to a table.  We were served tortilla chips with a bowl of their famous salsa while we decided what to order.  That was a difficult decision!

We were starving and wondered if their lunch specials @ $5.50 would be enough food.  Arlene thought it sounded like plenty and ordered the Chili Verde Special, which comes with beans and rice.

Being the piggy that I am, I ordered the Tamale and Enchilada Plate for $6.50 - after all, it was Arlene's turn to buy and I was hungry - No, I couldn't finish it all - But it sure was good!

Our waitress was Dora - like Dora the Explorer - only much cuter.  She has a beautiful smile and kept using it, even as we changed our minds about 4 times.  The service was excellent and the food was piping hot.

                                                                            This is Dora - isn't she a cutie?

If you haven't been to Mia's - you are missing out - it is on Pioneer Pkway,right across from Wal-Mart.

Looking for a great place to eat?  Deciding which restaurant to go to dinner in Mesquite?  Can't decide between Chinese or Japanese food for dinner?  Hunan Chicken or Beef Teriyaki?  Egg Roll or California Roll?

Well, the argument is over - let's go to the Panda Garden!  That's right - they now have both Chinese and Japanese food - it's like 2 restaurants in one!  It is at 10 E Mesquite Blvd - 702 346-3028

The building is simply beautiful - the front is surrounded by a rock garden which looks just like a river bed trickling down from the rock waterfall.  It really looks like an oasis in the desert with the palm trees in the background, but I never stand there long enough to enjoy it - just can't wait to get in and stuff myself.

The Panda Garden has a full cocktail and wine bar.  If you get caught in the dinner rush you can order your favorite drink, glass of wine or Saki - by the time you have finished it, you will be seated - the service is terrific. And Sushi lovers.....the Panda now has a Sushi Bar!

The banquet room has a lovely atmosphere and is large enough to accomodate a large private party or well, a banquet!  You can order for the whole group or each can order separately from the menu.

They serve a green salad with an amazing ginger spiced dressing which just makes me even hungrier.  The combination Egg Fu-Yung is the best I have ever had - heaped with vegetables and shrimp, chicken and beef.  If it is lunch time, try my favorite - the Seafood and Vegetable Tempura, which also comes with California rolls and pot stickers.

The servings are large - I always have to (get to) take some home for later - which makes me very happy!
