Encuentros!

Just got back from Cuernavaca Mexico. We were down there to take another two weeks of Spanish. I know it is going to help make the first weeks of training a little less stressful, we learned a lot. It was also a fun trip. The school was very professional, and fun. The family we stayed with was great. Also, we got to see a few sights that were on my unoffical "list". We went to Mexico City's Zocalo, checked out the Templo Mayor of Tenochitlan that the city was built on top of, saw a lot of murals by Diego Rivera, and spent a day at Teotehuican.

It was a pretty good use of two weeks. It was even better that on the first two days I returned I got out and fished with a friend, and had some really good fishing days! The best so far in this lackluster year. Now a few more days to fish, and then we head out for our backpacking trip. It will be nice to get over to the east side of the sierra's. It always relaxes me to be over there. Plus, we'll get a bit more fishing in over there.

On the way back we will swing through Sacto to visit with a few folks. No matter how much time we have, it never seems like enough to visit everyone. Cheers to all.
