I retired from flying about 3 years ago. I used to go to Mexico a lot as I enjoyed the weather, food, and luxury hotels we stayed at on our weekend layovers. However, we started to have crews get robbed especially at ATM's, with some harassment on occasion. We had incidents of gunfights outside the hotels, one bombing with a grenade, robbed at restaurant,etc. Most of the time the violence is not targeted towards Americans but between the drug cartels or revenge/macho retaliations over petty issues or women. I would not ever use a debit card and mostly exchanged dollars for pesos at the airport and used cash only. Numerous crewmembers had issues with identity theft but that happens everywhere now days. I would not ever take my family to Mexico anymore as you just don't know what is going on with the cartels and can get robbed, kidnapped, shot, etc but hey, I also avoid numerous cities in the US for the same reasons. Difference is the violence is not isolated in known neighborhoods or areas of town/country. Mexico really needs to get a handle on the violence and cartels or their tourism will dry up like Egypt and parts of Europe, like Paris. I'm glad I got to see the world when it was inexpensive, safe, and fun. For now I'll stay in the US and continue touring the states I haven't totally explored. We just got back from a 4000 mile trip out west and momma is ready to go again but I need to put up one more hay cutting before I roll up the haying business. JMHO

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
