Class Notes from Mexico

As I have mentioned many times before, for five years we lived in McAllen, TX only a few miles from the Mexican border.  While there we came to greatly appreciate the Mexican people and cultural.  I also enjoyed learning the history of Mexico, it is a rich and colorful story.  Being in Mexico this week … Continue reading Class Notes from Mexico →
