An Algodones Day - Feb 15, 2013

Up early and off to Los Algodones, in the state of Baja California, Mexico for a day of shopping.  No border check by the Mexican authorities on the way in but a long line-up on the way back.

In a number of ways, it is not much different than many other cities.  Check-out the Saskatchewan Roughrider shirt in the middle of this picture below.  Go Riders!!!

RIDER SHIRTS FOR SALE EVERYWHERE!
On the way home (well to the Imperial Dam LTVA) we once again entered through the gateway to Murphy Flat Flats   The gate is framed by two Ocotillo shrubs.

I've been puzzling over this picture below for quite some time.  It is a long game-trail (burrow path) that ends in this circular area.  It is trampled down in the center by many hoof beats and heavily stained around the outer edges by some kind of liquid...

Hard to concentrate on work when this is the view out the window.

  2. We did go back to Murphy Flats after Phoenix. Only for four days. We had sourdough with John while there.
