October 2006 Owner News Fall brings crisp, cool mornings, fiery leaves and... vacation planning of course. While you're missing those milder days, there is no better way to soothe your soul than knowing you've secured your spot at a sandy beach or in a sunny valley. In the meantime, with a trim, streamlined news format, we're bringing you a featured destination by request, a recipe for Pumpkin Pecan Cheesecake and a construction update on the exciting developments at Aviawest. We hope to see Pacific Shores Owners (if you purchased before June 2002) at the Pacific Shores' AGM this October 28th. In this issue look for: Quarters Under Construction Canary Islands - By Request Travel Journal from Arizona Recipe of the month Best Wishes, Gayle Miller Director of Owner Services
