To Tulum

We cut our time in Valladolid short and went to Tulum next.

Valladolid

Valladolid was founded in 1543 by Francisco de Montejo, and named after the capital of Spain at that time.

A cenote is a sinkhole filled with water. They are everywhere in the Yucatán.

I was elated to find that in actuality, each one of these selling points turns out to be absolutely true, and more so than I was even hoping for.

This is how far behind in blog posts I am: I left off before I got a chance to post about our concert in Montana. That concert was on July 23.

Despite a threat of wildfire, unlike last year’s visit, this year Montana skies stayed blue.

We raced and camped at an important site in Oregon state history.

Sometimes I am due to for a catch-up post.

I was so delighted with what I had done, I sent photos of the final products to the taxidermist on Etsy.
