Goodnight, goodbye, so long,and Gracias, #Oaxaca ... it's been grand.
Solid weather, a nice historic / colonial centro, artisan-centric (and workshops galore), a great varied culture & food scene and fantastic archeological ruins.
Seriously, what more does one need?

Did you know Josephine Baker, among her other talents, served as a *spy* during WWII ?!

Something we learned in Tanger Morocco last year. Travel really does expand knowledge & understanding.

Enrique Oroz blurs surrealism + existentialism, fusing hyper-real detail w subconscious symbols from art history & pop culture. His work dives into instinct, fetish & moral tension—unsettling, provocative.

Slim ain't having it

A bit shaken by all the El Mencho violence. We spent a great month in Puerto Vallarta in January; our thoughts are with the innocent, friendly, hard-working residents who showed us such a great time...
We enjoyed the art, whales, nature, food, ceremony and culture. Hoping for the best.

Policing?
Just wondering what Hot Stick means?
