I think the whole town goes to the desert and..not sure what i am in for really, my friend said rather poetically "wen you come to mexico come to learn the cultur to find you roots in the land to talking wit the univers vecause in the peyote desert you can meet the pure energi............" he really says the most beautiful things...but there in lies the danger....should be an adventure however toli and i will only be observing the energy of the peyote desert.
So rad that you are driving down, that has always been a fantasy of mine.
I would love to know if you find any really great farms in mexico.
