After all the turmoil, all the marches, protests and blockades, finally the city has exploded in the best of ways... with happiness and celebration. Yes, El Dia de los Muertos has arrived along with thousands of tourists and the place is hoppin', the night filled with some mighty fine looks. Father and daughter.

The here and now... and what and why
Complacency is a trap. At least that’s what I was thinking when I up and left the comfort of a Yankee prep school gig, where I taught music, amongst other things, for 28 years. There was also that life long career as a composer, musician and artist.
First, it was a year in St. Thomas, USVI, working as a reporter and shooting photography and then, a year in San Agustin Etla, Oaxaca, Mexico.
Time passed.
More time passed and a year back in the Athens of America followed by a hasty return to Oaxaca where it is all happening.
A couple of years in San Sebastian Etla and now, just down the road in San Pablo Etla. Life is good.

The hat on the baby's head is a minion. (from the movie "Despicable Me") Similar to the Incredible Hulk variation.
Hmmm.. I think it's rather Mike Wazowski from Monsters Inc.
