I am keeping my Yankee Dollars at home.

Tourists dance in a discotheque in Cancun in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo, March 2, 2009. Despite warnings about drug gang violence, U.S. college students are starting their annual "spring break" party on Mexican beaches, bringing dollars that will help cushion the economic slump in Mexico. With the battered peso making Mexico a cheap destination this year, the government is praying for a steady stream of visitors to its beach resorts and quaint colonial towns, despite the slumping global economy. Tourist visits to Mexico rose 6 percent last year to 22.6 million. Picture taken March 2, 2009. REUTERS/Stringer (MEXICO)

It's not a very long drive from my house to Mexico. We used to enjoy going down there once and while. We've even gone down to the big resorts, and had fun while we were there.

No more---I think you'd have to be nuts to take the chance right now.

I had planned on going there a few years ago but 9-11 happened and with the rising level of violence in Mexico back then and the BS at the airports, I long since changed my mind.

No amount of $$$ could make me go to Mexico--something I have enjoyed in the past. No more!
