Ring Shot of the year.

The Mighty Skillet

Today was a day full of shopping. Shopping until I could not shop any more. At one point I was so exhausted and needed a photo opportunity. So I raised the skillet into the air (that I had just purchased for my wife) and snapped this lovely iPhone photo. Hope you shopping was not as last minute as mine was.

Mexican Sunset

one last photo from my days in Mexico last week. This was the sky at sunset. When you're in the mountains, the sunset's are really amazing.

Drive to work

Here's a photo of my drive to work.  The streets were lined with trash and old tires.

Bimbo

bimbo [bim-boh]
–noun, plural -bos, -boes. Slang.

1. a foolish, stupid, or inept person.
2. a man or fellow, often a disreputable or contemptible one.
3. Disparaging and Offensive. an attractive but stupid young woman, esp. one with loose morals.

None of these definitions is positive, yet here in Mexico there is a company called Bimbo that produces cookies, chips, sandwiches, and snacks. Guess they won't be selling them in the US under this name any time soon.

Roadside Tacos

Lunch on Wednesday last week consisted of really great roadside tacos.

Mexican Power Lines

Some more images of Mexico.  These power lines span a long distance and beneath them you will find crops, soccer fields, and lots of trash.

ALTO Means Stop

The composition of this photos is intentional. Here in Mexico, a STOP (ALTO) sign does not mean stop. It really means yield, or more exactly "kinda sorta stop if you want to, but just go ahead" I'm afraid the yield sign is just for decoration, because that doesn't even seem to make a difference at all.

Mexico and my camera

Here's one of a few posts from my adventures in Mexico with my camera.

Drink of your choice

Here are my last photo from this week's trip to Mexico. These bottles were sitting outside of the restaurant that we at at. I had a corn fungus and it was really good. I'm bringing a better camera next week, so stay tuned.

Salida

While in Mexico I have begun to speak the language in a very rough form. I take pictures of signs to help me remember them. This one is quite obvious, meaning exit.

Mexican Hotel and sky

Taken from my hotel room as the sun was setting on this really bright yellow building.

When I take a trip, you go with me

I'm in Mexico for the week and I thought I would give you a photo from every day of my trip. The first photo of the trip is one that I have taken before, but I had to try a different angle this time. This is the tunnel between the A and B terminal at Detroit Metro airport. The sounds are very soothing when you go through this tunnel, almost makes you forget you're underground in a tunnel (maybe that's the intent.)
