Where in the World Wednesday, 4th Edition

Welcome to Where in the World Wednesday. It's my way to shamelessly show off some of my favorite pics and a bit of a reprieve from the world of IF. Do you know where this is? Have you been there? Leave a guess and I'll let you know if you're a winner!

*This is a statue from the Mayan Ruins. This was taken in Copan, Honduras. One of the intersting things about this particular part of Mayan civilization is the detail to the artifacts and temples. You can see a tremendous amount of detail. Copan could be compared to a Paris, France of it's day. The temples were smaller compared to it's other counterparts in the Mayan world. Wheras the temples in the Northern jungles of Guatemala (The Peten) were quite large, they can be seen towering over treetops. However, a block is just a block, no elaborately carved pieces like the picture above.

Breckenridge, CO. Learned to ski last year, I got to go on blues my second day. Not bad huh? The day after I learn how to even put skis on...They take me up to the tree line and I thought I'd never make it but I did.

*This is the Survivor Tree at the Oklahoma City Memorial. If you have never been, it should be on your to do list. One of the best memorials I've ever seen. Brings me to tears every time. The tree is dedicated to all those who have survived acts of terror. However, this post is dedicated to those who have survived the "Loss" trenches of IF.
