Don’t Forget Your Passport: Guatemala, Central America
Don't Forget Your Passport: Guatemala, Central America Host Ross Shimmon tours the world most preserved Mayan ruins in the steamy jungles of Tikal. He hikes for hours in a rain-soaked mountain cloud forest on the Caribbean coastline where he meets up with a group of petrified children swimming naked in a waterfall. Later, Ross explores a massive lake surrounded by active volcanoes and then rides a horse through the cobblestone streets of a 600-year-old village. Finally Ross ends his journey at a drunken festival where loud music and alcohol turns the locals ugly and a massive street brawl sends the tourist scrambling for safety. Dont Forget Your Passport is your ticket to an adventurous worldwide tour, hosted by a group of energetic and curious world travelers from around the globe. Awesome cinematography provides the backdrop for those spur-of-the-moment, intriguing, crazy yet absolutely real situations that only the most intrepid travellers find themselves in. Living with the cave-dwelling Berber tribes of North Tunisia, hiking through the polar cap villages of Greenland, or being caught in the middle of a street brawl in Guatemala: Dont Forget Your Passportis fearless and fun! Yet its always good to know that at the end of the day, serenity is just a stones throw away - in a rainbow-patched waterfall, deep in the steamy jungles of Sumatra, Indonesia. Ahhhh, heaven. Dont Forget Your Passport is a continuing journey into the fascinating cultures and stunning landscapes that make up our ever-changing planet.

Grave Secrets
Grave Secrets Temperance Brennan is helping her Guatemalan colleagues identify the remains of villagers who were “disappeared” 20 years ago when she’s called in to consult on four more recent disappearances. Is there a serial killer loose in Guatemala City, or is the fate of the young women who’ve gone missing–including the daughter of the Canadian ambassador–connected to the murder of a human-rights investigator looking into the decades-old massacre? Brennan, the protagonist of Reichs’s popular series, is literally hip-deep in intrigue, between the well in Chupan Ya where she unearths the bones of women and children slain in Guatemala’s bloody civil war and the septic tank in the capital where the remains of one of the missing girls turn up. Tempe is a standout in crime fiction’s crowded field of forensics experts–she’s one of its more complex and interesting protagonists, dealing with intriguing cases that often cross national borders and a personal life that’s rich in possibilities the author skillfully exploits. Tempe–and Reichs–just keep getting better. –Jane Adams

Huipil Mosaic

I made this mosaic — and several others like it — from scraps of used huipiles I purchased here in Guatemala. A huipil is the traditional blouse worn by Guatemalan women and is sometimes spelled guipil.

In addition to the huipil fabric, I used watercolor paper and fabric glue.
