KISS Hello Kitty coloring book

hello kitty kiss coloring book guanajuato

I saw this coloring book for sale while walking the streets of Guanajuato. This is what happens when two cash cow franchises get together. But to be perfectly honest, can you imagine a better coloring book?

I learned this past week that weather.com is not to be trusted when it comes to weather in Guanajuato. The forecast just before I left the USA was for highs in the 80s, lows in the 60s, and a few sprinkles the entire 10 days I’m in Mexico. When I arrived the streets were flooding from extreme amounts of rain. The rain was incredible for my first two days here. The revised forecast is for highs in the 70s and lows in the 50s. Too bad I didn’t prepare for such temperatures.

Today’s photo comes from the end of the storms. Weather.com said we had a 100% chance of rain yesterday afternoon and evening, yet there was no rain and the skies were beautiful.

Heading for third

Justin Morneau 33 colorado rockies coors field

Justin Morneau of the Colorado Rockies

The Rockies are a bit short on star power these days. With Troy Tulowitzki on the DL, Morneau takes on the role of the biggest offensive threat on the team. He did not disappoint on this evening (8/6/14), going 3 for 4 with 2 runs scored. He scored from first base on this play, a double by Nolan Arenado.

Coors Field sunset – Rockies vs. Cubs (Denver, Colorado)

I’m on my way to Mexico today. I stopped off in Denver for a night on the way to catch a Rockies game. This was my first time at Coors Field. It was a typical Rockies game, with the worst team in the National League (Colorado) putting 13 runs on the board against the second worst team in the league (Chicago Cubs).

Mr. T Experience – Japan Tour t-shirt at San Francisco Giants game

My A’s took 3 of 4 games from the Giants again this year with today’s 6-1 victory. Today’s photo is from last year’s Bay Bridge series. While I hate the Giants, always have and always will, I love San Francisco the city and its people, always have and always will. Where else will you spot old dudes in shirts like this?
