Yes, we live in Austin, home of the most vegetarians per capita in our grand ol’ state but it is… Continue reading Texas vs. Argentina: THE BEEF OFF

In this case, they brought in… Continue reading Hangin’ with CloudHead in Salta, Argentina

As we approached Salta, Argentina, the more nervous we got. We were in our last country. It is over. Sure we are going to try and enjoy the last of it... but it is over.
