Headed west across Mexico, north of us in Antigua. This is my first  
hurricane to pass between me and home. No rain here.

Here is a satellite photo of the state of Hidalgo, Mexico:

Notice how the eastern side of the Sierra Madres is green and the
western side is dry.

Look at that rugged mountain area to the
northeast of the center of the photo. Using your mouse, drag that
area to the center of the photo.  Then zoom in about 3 notches.
( or as many as you can ). It is fuzzy imagery however, I believe
you can see some possible giant sotanos ( or shadows ).

There is a probably a
cave somewhere around there waiting for you to find it.

Can you find any known caves on this map?

Grutas de Tolantongo is in there somewhere. You would not
want to be anywhere near there in a flash flood.

Can't believe you're dry.  Was wondering about you.  
Enjoy Antigua -- I'd just as soon be bored there instead of here -- 
Immobile either place, but nobody to drink with here.
