I just received a letter for my high school reunion. Any such letter makes you think of high school and its memories. Ah, all the good, the bad, and the ugly. And it also sent me looking through photos. During my high school days the digital camera was no where to be found; it wasn’t invented […]

Sunset Sunday – Southern California Marina
When I dream of the southern California, I often find myself dreaming of the pacific ocean and its beaches. And those dreams include the sunset. The Laguna Beach sunset or the Carlsbad Sunset come to mind. But, on my exploration of the southern California coast, I discovered other beauty. I found beauty in the sunsets […]
The Central Market, Guatemala City
You might not find the market at first; it almost seems hidden. The Mercado Central or Central Market of Guatemala City fills up a few square blocks yet you need to know where to look. You need to look down. A two minute walk from the ‘parque central’ (the main square), the main market in […]
Sunset Sunday – Caribbean Club in Key Largo, Florida
Key Largo, essentially put on the map by the 1948 classic staring Bogart and Bacall, was once known as Rock Harbor. The community decided to capitalize on the popularity of the movie and insisted that their post office be called Key Largo. On June 1, 1952 the name changed. Much has changed since then, and […]

Sunset Sunday – Tauranga, North Island, New Zealand
To mark three months since the earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand and two months since the highly successful Blog4NZ effort I decided have Sunset Sunday return to New Zealand once again. My first one, in March, was Lake Waikaremoana, New Zealand during the Blog for New Zealand effort. And again, just as in the first […]
Mercado Municipal Mazatlán, Mexico
The main market, the Mercado Municipal in Mazatlán covers an entire square block and is just a few steps from the central down town church. It’s outside the main tourist area, the Golden Zone, and also is not just for tourists. Here, you get a chance to see more than the typical “prepackaged” items. The […]
