"They say, old Fords never die, they just come to Belize. But Fords, Chevrolets even those hardy little Toyotas do die, eventually. We just never bury them in Belize. We leave their metal corpses to decay in the streets, or in front of our homes."

- Karla Heusner, Food for Thought, Chronicles of Belize

What I love about his is how true it is. Just driving down the road there are rusted out cars in front of several of the houses. Contrary to what one may think they are not there because they are unloved, they are there because they are greatly loved. They become part of the tour of the house, the essence. At this ranch I saw the fruit trees, the animals, the house, and of course this pick up truck, or as my guide says, "this is the truck that I learned to drive on." Poor guy.
