Ever since I was a kid growing up in Ogden Utah back in the early 80's, I've been fascinated by the Spanish bullfight. I even searched out books on bullfighting at the Weber County library, where I found and read "Death in the Afternoon" by Ernest Hemingway. I'm probably the only kid in Utah to have ever read that book. Now here we are 40 years later and I still enjoy learning about and keeping up with the bullfights.

A mark in the sand
(photo taken earlier this year in Valencia)
Occasionally you will see a bullfighter enter the plaza and make a mark in the sand with his foot.
Usually they are making the sign of the cross.
