I agree 'bias, it's going to be like a western KS wedding where everyone thinks they are a farmer cowboy and just turn down for what. Farmer cowboys have great weddings

I believe my buddy was in Sioux Falls when they saw a stripper put a cheeto in her starfish.    Boredom and booze are a bad combo.

Also you should read/listen to Undaunted Courage.  Very relevant.

There are certainly dangerous areas in Mexico City.   So long as you stick to the tourist areas you should be fine, but be very aware of your surroundings and don't venture off the reservation.   Pickpocketing is pretty bad I think, so plan accordingly.  No idea on Guanajuato.

Also, in Mexico City the water is not purified and safe to drink as it is in many of the tourist areas.   This applies to anything made or handled with it (ice, salads, unpeeled fruit, etc.).

It was 55, so it was pretty amazing this time of year. Northwest is as cool as I thought it would be. Portland is a lil different, but like an Austin different that you enjoy. The people watching was amazing. I hear their pot is like 10x stronger than Colorado's too. Allegedly.

Delta boarding is great.  But maybe you're in zone 2 or 3 with the losers, then not so great.

I'm zone 1 son, which is actually zone 4 because first you have the cripples, then the prem, then the sky.
the gate crowders make it a crap show for everyone though.  yesterday at ATL you would have thought you were in pamplona at the running of the bulls the way those clowns rushed the gate halfway though the sky boarders.  ridiculous.

Less people carry on bags on SW so it's faster, get a clue man.  SW boarding/seating is the worst.
