The colors on people's house, on the municipal building, just about everywhere seemed particularly electric today. Here's the entrance to the panteon.

In the pink
A nice quick trip over to Zaachila to check on the panteon and the preparations for Muertos in a couple of weeks. The cemetery is beautifully shaded by large trees, but the main reason we headed there was to check on the graves, where in addition to placing fresh flowers, many of the graves have plants growing on them, little mini gardens. More on that later.

Or how about this house. "Hey, man, take a right and my place is the pink one on the right. You can't miss it."
Now, that is color. Amiright?
And this wonderful gate was directly across the street from Big Pink.
What a palette they use here, completely free, but it often works so well.

I must comment on your spectacular fotos. I have been searching many blogs from Mexico looking for something I can relate to my experiences and these photos (along with your commentary)brought me back, not only to Oaxaca and Mexico, but also to a time when you could say "Big Pink" and almost everyone in your sphere would know what you were talking about. Thanks for the spark!
