Roadside memorials decorate all of Mexico. God knew that I should stay uninformed as to their significance until just the other day. I recently learned that for every roadside memorial, someone has died in a car accident. Eeek! That would be quiet a bit for they are all along the roads and highways! Based on the driving here, it is believable. It has been an adjustment for me to travel in Mexico. For 6 weeks, I was frightened to get in our van. Yesterday while driving to Morelia, for the first time I was not afraid.This memorial here is a little more extensive than some. Some are left up for a few months, others forever, while some are displayed annually in remembrance of a loved one.
