Mexico

Jared just recently took a 2 1/2 week trip to Mexico for some work training. And though he says he worked rather hard while he was there, it is apparent from some photos that he did more than just work. Here's a few shot for you to enjoy, and me too, to live vicariously through Jared's work.

Big fat Olmec Heads, there were a few of these around. They remind me mostly of Indiana Jones more than anything.
Mosaic Tiles. I thought they were cool.
A God coming up from the Underworld, not sure why, but there you have it.
Coatimundi (Quat-i-moon-dee). Their like a cross between monkey's and raccoons. Super cute but if you stop feeding them they'll bite you, not very nice. Ancient Mayan Ruins, there were many a shot of these and they reminded me so much of Guatemala that I really want to go back.
They actually had aqueducts of sorts running through these ruins. They're naturally fed from the river water and still work, once they were excavated that is.
Current view of the city where he was. He was there while a hurricane was hitting the coast so they had some rain and a bit of flooding. As you can see from this river, a bit higher than it should be.
So we're glad to have our Daddy back, a lot changes in 2 1/2 weeks, and it's much better to have him at home than away.

My cousin's husband works for an oil company too and he's been able to go to some fun places and do sight seeing. It would be awesome if you could go with Jared on one of his trips.
