Pictures From Oaxaca

Melody at breakfast the first morning in Oaxaca. I found out later those statues were not pricesless relics but were actually sold at many a shop. Posted by Picasa

Skeet!

Yesterday while driving home from Portland Melody spotted a green Cadillac with the license plate "SKEET". I assumed some young urban individual had snapped this name up when the word became popular, and I respected him for his foresight and humor. It was certainly believable given the gaudy caddy with gold license plate holder. But then when we drove by the car it was an old white woman! I'm sure she enjoys skeet shooting a whole hell of a lot, and now cannot understand why teenagers keep yelling "Awww skeet skeet mother fucker, aww skeet skeet goddamn!" at her, which is what I would have done had we not been on I5.
