The natural wildlife of Topanga Canyon State Park.


The natural architecture of the Topanga Canyon State Park, in Topanga Canyon of course! This weekend was an exciting one. Went over to some friends' places on friday to hang out and catch up on some old camp friend that live her in LALA land... Saturday hung out with my sister's boyfriend and caught up on my Law and Order of all denominations. Then had some friends over to my sister's place to hang out again! Sunday I woke up very early to get out hiking all day long, to later return to a house full of extended family! Always a plus! Just finished the movie My Own Private Idaho... Interesting! .

Guatemala

Here is a Nice Picture of Me!!!! I am in front of the Catholic Cathedral in Guatemala City.These are the guys that run the Hotel Fenix, where I stayed everytime I was in town. Very nice guys and always had a smile on their faces. This is the main central park area of the big big city of Guate. A good shot of a local Mayan girl selling her Papaya in Guate. This is a view as we were zooming buy Panachel on Lake Antitlan. Here is a ¨Float Parade¨for Lent in Antigua, carried by just women. And it is heavy!!! Here is the Men´s Float. This is one of the pimps walking around, enjoying the sights.Here is the start of the March. Very impressive!

Mayan Women!! .As Senator Timothy Wirth (D-Colo.) put it: "We've got to ride the global warming issue. Even if the theory of global warming is wrong, we will be doing the right thing, in terms of economic policy and environmental policy."
