    Howdy DaddyO,

    It really was a very special place, we hadn't heard of it until our planning our trip, glad we got to see and visit it.

    He was such a force in the Artist and Political Scene of Mexico's rich History.
    Take care,

    Howdy Richard,

    Thanks, This was a really eye opening trip, I sure learned a lot about Mexico's Artist Communtiy of the early 1900's.

    We visited Frida's House, very interesting lady, must have been quite a collection of people, especially with Trotsky around:D
    Take care,
