We find it so depressing, here in Mexico, how much Coca-Cola people consume. They have such easy access to freshly squeezed orange juice and other local fruit juices. The long reach of the huge multinationals is really frightening.
10 months agoRight!! In this case, for me, things couldn't have been worse than to see a Coke machine in this spot. Get it out of there!! Also, I remember when the grass extended all the way over there where it is now all worn down to dirt. It was much more enchanting with grass all around.

10 months agoYou would love this place. We were lucky to get up there fairly early in the day and there also has been a shift in weather making it much cooler than it's been. Usually it is sweltering on the trudge up these stones even early in the morning because it is totally exposed to the sun.
10 months agoI think you are right, John. Good job! But Bill was on the right track with hibiscus because apparently this used to be classified as a hibiscus. Interesting plant, so high in nutrition. The dried leaves contain 12-14% protein! That's kind of amazing. I saw this plant just off the stone walkway, certainly it had not been planted.
