  Ruminations of an Expatriate — Authority: 128
  Again today the neighborhood children mobbed me when I arrived for my morning of work, the older boys asking if they could wash my little pickup.

• Cofre de Perote -- The Other Side of the Mountain -- And What Do You Think We Saw

  
  From Xico — Authority: 420
  Part of what we do on our small excursions here in Veracruz is play a giant-sized version of connect-the-dots. We come to one place and recognize that weve been near it before, coming at it from the other side. Then we feel compelled in a small way to close the gap from the other side, or, if you will, the other dot. ...
