Hope it all goes well, wish I could have made it.

I may be in Afghanistan, but these folks are real soldiers on the front lines. History will remember them as patriots.....




..... that is if our Feds ever get their heads out of their 4th point of contact.

Hope it was a successful event.

Maybe we can twist his arm and get him to tell us about it .

We may have to beg but it will be worth it.

Well said.

I'll work my way backwards into the last coupla' days,....a serious crash and burn is about to see me get more that a short nap,....in days.

Here's a coupla' pics of the man himself, Sheriff Joe Arpaio





I was shaded up with some rowdy local friends, and newly met Campfire member funshooter, and his lovely lady Jan,.....we were a mite concerned about the level of activity off to the South, per the pics below. Test your eyes on THIS one :



Here, let me zoom in, I would imagine that we'll be finding out about these clowns,......they had badge folders hanging around their necks,.....obviously not playing sneaky,....either.

My rowdy friends and I were interviewed and taped by this lovely Swiss reporter,.........

I'll catch up to more of this in the AM,.....

Thanks for the pics and updates Cross. Awesome. Well-done.

that swiss girl talked to me too, but she wasn't as hot as the mexican girl, kind of like a young jennifer lopez according to my wife. my wife was also interviewed by someone from the christian science monitor, and there were japanese reporters there too. They interviewed a chinese guy i was talking too.
What i haven't figured out is a very large complex on the mexican side along the san pedro river. Have to figure that one out.
The country is in full beauty and green after the rains and wife and i had a real good time.
I think there are some inaccuricies in the news article, those little flags on the fence had been there for quite a while.
the guys in the orange shirts stopped on the mexican side, and handed a camera to a guy on the american side so he could take their pictures. They are mexican government employees that patrol along the border in a humanitarian function to find/assist mexicans in trouble in the desert.
It is difficult country, and just sitting on my butt there, i was leaking water.
I might have some pictures once the wife gets them on the computer.
I might add one thing we noticed driving down from phoenix is as least six or so trucks piled to the moon loaded down with furniture/ personal belongings all driven by hispanics heading to the border.
I think 1070 is working.
one other thing i noticed today running into the border patrol block coming up from sierra vista to I10.
That place has been there for a long time. It isn't rocket science to think you offload your passenger, they walk around the block, and get picked up on the other side. Saw a half dozen b.p. sitting in the shade while one checked the cars.
The thing i noticed was it always seemed that the b.p. always drove dodge trucks for the most part.
Saw quite a few Chevrolet trucks this time. Maybe because it is now GOVERMENT MOTORS?

You don't know how bad I wanted to go and tried to connive any way to. But a long trip back from visiting our friend last night and then family matters today, it didn't add up. Luckily I didn't as my daughter had an emergency at 4am and I needed to go take care of that at her house.

I can't identify crossfire in those pics, nobody with an M60 on his shoulder.

Thanks crossfire.

And nobody had a slingshot...

Has anyone heard from the good man?? I watched the news and called the Heat and nowhere did they have a guy with the first name of Greg in custody!

I'd hump his ammo and barrels for him.

He was captured and taken across the border... interrogated... brutally...

But all they could get out of him, as he looked at them with his right eye twitching uncontrollably....

BARKOFF!!!! BARKOFF!!!!

In disgust they just dumped him back across, he got up, slapped the dust off himself and flipped them the bird, Pinche Mejicanos... they flipped him back, Loco pinche Gringo...

the saga continues...

You guys are funny,.....Sick, but funny,.....

This pic was taken on Thursday last,.....when I had done as much parking area mowing as I could stand,......"Old Glory" performed flawlessly in 100* + temps, other than the usual flat tire hassles that one lives with in Thorn Mesquite terrains

In this view the camera is pointed grid South, and directly behind "Goldie" in the backround would be the area where the crowds gathered :



In this view the Camera has panned off to the Southeast, for a nice view of the San Jose range :
