Just Us

Charles and I went on one of his business trips together. We first stopped in Zacatecas. My favorite place so far. Full of history and beauty. Most of the town is made with a pink stone. We took a tour with a group and the story that stuck most with me was about the pope's visit. He planted a tree and when a frost came it was the only tree that lived through it. The pope also rung the bell on the church so they now ring it everyday at that time.

We then went to Torreon. Charles went to work and I stayed at the hotel that was surrounded by a large mall, resting and reading and walking. Peaceful and strange. He worked with these guys and then took me out to dinner with them one night. Loved the food. They are a great group of people. I enjoyed our dinner together and all their fun stories.
On our way back home we went to see a ghost town called Real de Catorce. It was an old Spanish mining town in the middle of no where. Lots of miles of cobblestone road. The tunnel was so awesome to drive in but I would pray never to be in it during an earthquake.

Local Pyramid

This pyramid is in our area. When others came to the areas with the pyramids, they covered the pyramid with dirt and built their church on top. Lately the Mexican people have began uncovering the pyramids and have found many artifacts. This is about 10 to 15 minutes from our home. The Temple of the Sun is 3 hours away, just north of Mexico City.
Charles went to a soccer game with a big group from work. He had a lot of fun. I just like the picture, he is so cute. They ended up on the news, they were all dressed alike. The group went to a taco place after. It was hard to find a place for all of them because everyone from the game had the same idea. Tacos are so good there, not anything like tacos in the states.
