Okay, so it is now officially summer. Two days ago was nice. It was not blistering hot. But it was one of only a few warm days we have had this year.

I guess that for my warmth, I need to focus on the past. This is a photo that I took, two years ago, while on a day trip in Oaxaca, Mexico. I was wandering around this nice restaurant and I decided to take a shot through this colorful doorway. That is our cab driver, who served as a tour guide, in the background. The cafe is near the ruin of Mitla. The weather was paradise.

 

 

        

        

Check out "This Day In History" -- music and vintage television from the 1950's through the 1980's.  I enjoy writing these articles because they take me back to my days in radio broadcasting. Click on Elvis' gold record, below, to revisit those golden hits of yesteryear.

Steven, I got a picture of Peter Bay in St. John posted as my wall paper as a constant reminder of where I want to be.  Preferably on a beach somewhere where it's warm, with that nice ocean breeze.  Cool picture!

I think it's significant the the photo is shot from in the shelter out of the sun. For me if you are more comfortable in the shade, it's too hot.
