What happened to Mike?

So, it is like you and I have even been working up to this.
Learning to love from afar.
No, Mike is in need that can’t be denied
And our lives have changed, this is so true.
Now is our time to understand, love and care.
Our Mike is a pioneer, in his own way.
Off to lands unknown to most [...]

If you plant yourself here I wouldn’t miss you for long
But then comes the day when you [...]

Swimming Holes at Cuzamá

Sun comes out and so do we. Joy and I ventured out to visit ‘cenotes’.
Off, by bus, to Cuzamá. Much of the road is one lane, a little tense when trucks or other buses come our way. Once in town and puttering along in a motor powered bike built for three, we are told there [...]

Uxmal Revisited

We had a good day back out at Uxmal, a ruin full of stone carvings. Many things I had missed before made it well worth the trouble plus Joy had not been there.
Many structures there, seemed to be living spaces. Some rooms I would stick my camera in (dark) and shoot. I could hear the [...]
