It is the late afternoon that can start to chill you if you are in the house. I just add layers but sometimes when my feet get cold, then I'm cold.Billie Mercerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17826454938577230499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11526678.post-73525819375294649112009-11-09T09:22:55.795-06:002009-11-09T09:22:55.795-06:00And do you mind the colder mornings so very much?

There is one picture where I tried to hold the camera aloft and shoot so you could get an idea of how many people were there but it still doesn't give an accurate feeling of the crowds. I usually go back the day after day of the dead to just shoot the flowers but this year other things happened and I never got back. The cemetery is litterly carpeted in flowers.Billie Mercerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17826454938577230499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11526678.post-11904752175144540122009-11-09T08:28:30.423-06:002009-11-09T08:28:30.423-06:00I love your pictures.

With that many people it looks like they were giving something away. The Mexicans are wonderful people.<br /><br />I am also sorry to hear about the loss of your dear friend. I am sure you have many memories of him.Sam and Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14808720223901677738noreply@blogger.com
