Here is a better photo of that path. It’s shot from the same place but looking the other direction down the path.

The first photo was taken by me with a phone camera. The one below by a professional photographer.

I’m looking for a good dentist you would recommend that is located in the general McCormick Ranch area.

My current dentist is fine but I’m starting to feel like a mark, like she’s doing things that don’t really need to be done.

Please email your recommended dentist to me at john@johnwake.com.

Thank You!

ADDED: I just went through Angie’s List and picked out 4 dentists in the area that had really good reviews. I would still love to know if you have a great dentist you would recommend. Hopefully, I’ll be able to find one who takes my dental insurance, Delta Dental.

Liz and I decided to try out The Spotted Donkey Cantina in McCormick Ranch on the recommendation of Alexandra Duemer of McCormick Ranch Lifestyle magazine.

I like the ambiance a lot.  Some contempoary lines but friendly look.  We’re on the patio and it nice, not too crowded and the music isn’t too loud.  We can talk… as soon as I take a break from writing this review.

Great. After a little chatting the food quickly arrived. The $14 chimichanga is not your traditional chimi. It was served cut in half and standing on its ends! The flavor is very nice but a little too smoky flavored for my taste.

The cerviche was also good.

Service was GREAT! Nice ambiance. A great place to hang out.
