I do love that album, and <i>My Better Self</i>. If I'd taken the time to detail what's great about all my favorites, I'd still be typing a month from now.

Listen to "She’s Alright By Me" and "Hard Woman" Crooked Still, Shaken By A Low Sound - the last Rushad LP, so groovy you can barely call it folk or bluegrass. Listen to "Come On In My Kitchen" and "Ain't No Grave" The Jayhawks, Tomorrow The Green Grass - their masterpiece, harmonies everywhere. Listen to "Blue" and "Nothing Left to Borrow" Brian May, Back To The Light - the Queen guitarist strikes out on his own for an album that got nonstop play for a month when it came out. Listen to "Driven By You" and "Let Your Heart Rule Your Head" Dar Williams, My Better Self - live, almost a greatest hits album. Listen to "Iowa" and "The Christians and The Pagans" Mostly I listen to music of artists I’m planning on seeing in concert soon, but some always make the playlist anyway:

In the winter Ben called the embassy to see if they knew of anywhere (that was a permit that they had had about it July). Have a permit to all the pubs and clubs in Paradise, but not much else.

On a good day, you can see a big chunk of the Cascade Range, from Mt. Hood to the south all the way up to Mt. Baker in the north (depending on which way you're flying). It's a wonder. I vote for the "no soul" explanation. I’ve lived in Seattle for nearly 15 years and I still ask for a window seat and gawk when it’s clear enough to see the peaks.

]]> Comment on Cancun: Home of the All-Inclusive Resort by Author of PEOPLE'S CHOICE GUIDE CANCUN http://twoliablog.com/the-perpetual-tourist/2008/06/26/cancun-home-of-the-all-inclusive-resort/#comment-189 Author of PEOPLE'S CHOICE GUIDE CANCUN Thu, 26 Jun 2008 21:50:53 +0000 http://twoliablog.com/meg/?p=153#comment-189 I agree with what was stated here but I just want to contribute that the Desire resort is not actually located in Cancun. The area of Cancun that people think about when they hear the term Cancun, is actually a narrow strip of sand known as the Hotel Zone. This area is in reality an island, lined with All-Inclusive and European Plan (room only) hotels, as well as Time-Share Resorts and condominiums. This is perhaps what makes Cancun the ideal destination for everyone, because there are so many choices.
