Paying attention to the signs of the Road.

Paying attention to the signs of the Road.

The road from Tehuantepec to Oaxaca travels up the Sierra Madre. It is not a bad road. In fact we drove 2.5 hours south to get on this road going north. The mountains yield little and demand much attention. If you are a driver, you find the wheel becomes an extension of your arms and shoulders as you move back and forth with the continuous turns and your feet skip to rest on different pedals.
You must give attention to the road--pay attention to the signs.
The road is the primary concern. The beautiful mountain vistas are a peripheral element. No time for eyes to wander. No time to research the many bible verses painted on boulders. No time to drink the Mezcal at roadside stills that line the way.
