Places I've been - introduction

On Sunday March 5, 2017, while Pat and I were at home watching the World Golf Championships tournament that was taking place at Club de Golf Chapultepec in Mexico City, I recounted to Pat some stories about my past visits to Mexico City. Today's stories were about my visit to Mexico City's Coyoacán neighborhood where I visited, among other places, La Casa Azul the home of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo,



and, Museo Casa de Leon Trotsky the home from 1939-1940 of Russian Russian Marxist revolutionary and Soviet politician Leon Trotsky lived and, in August 1940, was murdered.





Upon completion of my story, Pat asked me why I didn't write a book...call it 'Places I've been'...tell about all the places I've been and the things I've seen and done. "Everybody should hear your stories."

Well, why not?

This blog is just an introduction. As time goes by and as time permits, I will write one or more blog entries recounting my remembrances of at least some of The Places I've Been.
