Post image for 15th State of the Barrio Address (SOBA): Au revoir and goodbye! Barrio Siete is closing its doors.

It may not really be au revoir and goodbye because Barrio Siete is merging back to its mother ship – Reyna Elena. May 17, 2009 when we created Barrio Siete. Interestingly, 7 months later we are now folding up. It was a nice run. A great run. An unbelievable run. In fact, we’re still flying [...]
