 Just returned from a 10 day splendid driving trip from Austin to
 Zacatecas.  We had a swift friendly crossing at Laredo, an easy drive on
 the toll road south.  We spent a couple of days in Real de Catorce, hiking
 and hanging out with friends then drove to my 72 yr old companion's casita
 in the mts of Jalisco, between Monte Escobedo (controlled by invisible
 zetas) and Mexquitic (ditto guzmans)  Rumour has it that occasionally the
 road between the two towns is contested for ownership;  we saw no sign of
 that or any other trouble.  Lots of great hiking in the mts and barrancas,
 visited both towns which were clean prosperous and friendly, drove all over
 backroad Mexico, then had two delightful days in Ciudad  Zacatecas  - a
 gorgeous vibrant musical traveler filled city.  Mexico is alive and well
 and wonderful as ever.
