Tulum

The ruins of Tulum. Amazing! The ruins are actually the walled, center part of the city. The city population was approximately 5,000 and the walled area would have been the city administration with only the mayor and other key people living day to day.

Playa del Carmen

Playa del Carmen (Quintana Roo, Mexico) was beautiful.

But don't try to break in to these apartments. An electric fence awaits!


Some minor flooding and road damage caused by Hurricane Rina.

Browns vs. Rams

Unfortunately, the Browns didn't win today but it was a close game. We won't talk about how a field goal attempt could fail so spectacularly.

Colts vs. Browns

Two weeks ago, we saw the first Browns victory over the Colts in 17 years.

Elvis

34 years ago, Elvis died. If you've never read the Indianapolis Star review of his final concert, it is a must read.

Also, it is Angie's birthday!

No Hitter

I got to see a no hitter the other day and this was the final pitch. Very impressive as there have only been 272 in the history of Major League Baseball.

Browns Preseason Opener

We went to the preseason opener with Browns vs. Packers. The Browns managed to beat the Super Bowl champs!

4th of July

Derek, the grillin machine!

Brats and corn on the cob.....yum!

Time to chow down =)

The Queen's Staircase

The Queen's Staircase in Nassau honors Queen Victoria freeing the slaves. It was carved directly from the stone.

Embassy Nassau

The green building is the US Embassy for the Bahamas. Right there behind McDonald's. Guess they wanted it to be easy for the Americans to locate.
