This picture was taken before the Octavia on-ramp for 101 was built, you can see the reflection of the old overpass which was eventually torn down.

My family and I traveled to Mexico to visit the Yucatán Peninsula in the spring of 1993. We took some side trips to visit Chichen Itza and Tulum and on a gas stop in a small town on our way I snapped the pic below. The timing was perfect as the little boy in the window was pointing and looking in the same direction as the dragon on the wall.

You might also know that when the Platform events ended, the spirit lived on in an urban lifestyle magazine called Slightly Pointed East. While only three issues of SPE were ever published (a collectors item!), they are now immortalized online at issuu, a destination for archiving print publications, catalogs, etc. Check them out…

Slightly Pointed East issue #1

Slightly Pointed East issue #2

Slightly Pointed East issue #3

(Full disclosure: Lee was the art director for SPE)
