Tulum - Ancient Mayan City

Tulum was built more than 1400 years ago. Early reports predicted a direct hit and destruction by Hurricane Dean - thankfully it was spared. Our Mayan guide gave us a running commentary of the city's history. Tulum is surrounded on three sides by rock walls and on the fourth by a cliff and the sea.

Take the A Train

We visited New York City in 2005. Grand Central Station--amazing!
"A Train" played by Charlie.

Froggie Came a Courtin'

Notice the way the white line starts at the back and extends all the way through the eye. Now notice the black line below that - goes clear to his nose.

No regrets!

The new semester is about to start...without me. Am I sad? No way!!! I have my Z3 (a retirement gift from me to me), and hubby and I are ready for a road trip with Martha and Marletta and Martha's Miata. Two small white streaks across the countryside. Can hardly wait - but the temperature needs to back off a bit. August 100s - just too hot - maybe late September or October?
