Toll booth so Mexico can pay for the wall as they did four years ago. I am all for the wall and worker visas.

Did you do any trapping down there? Seemed like ringtails were pretty uncommon but I didn't look into too deep. Sure saw a LOT of cat sign.

I guess it goes dry in some areas at least up stream. Sounds like they pull out a lot of water for agriculture on both sides. Downstream it was pretty big. Wouldn't be surprised if there are some gators in there already!

Cool looking country. Would love to do some cat trapping down there, even if it didn't pay!

Hey Mike and Jeff, yeah cool country, it was nice to get out of the snow. Tucson has the big saguaro and lots of cactus. New Mexico had lots of blm land to kick around on. Texas is mostly private so hard to find anyplace to really roam but worth seeing the far southwest for sure. Not hard to find cat country and as you can see the Mexicans know how to advertise ladies jeans!

I have two brothers in Texas that always tell me to come down and visit. I never did. Looks like it could be a neat trip after all.

I usually end up running away to tropical islands instead, in fact I am bailing next month for the Philippines. Warm beaches sound real good about now.

Tequila agave? Looking for arrowheads and the border fence somewhere south of Laredo. There were national guard guys with binos posted on the bluff looking deep into Mexico here. Pretty sure the Texas governor called them up to help the border patrol.

Hair Sniffer dang sure didn't!!


God please keep they 19 fallen UBB miners out of trouble up there.

It was actually jacket cool quite a bit. Didn't get really hot til we were way down south by McAllen/Brownsville. On another note didn't see anything of rainbows or trans til we got down there as well. Pretty sure the hispanics aren't into that!
