I have found the pumps I used at the Oxxo in Sonoyta to be fair, I figured I needed about 10 gallons to fill and it took 10.2 gallons. Unlike some of the pumps in Penasco where you get 80-90% of what the pump shows. Their exchange rate at the Oxxo was 18.9-1.

We came down to Cholla today, gas price signs were $4.99 in Why and at the Lukeville station. The Circle K was showing $4.18, I bet someone didn't change the sign yet. In Sonoyta magna was still 18.19 per L. It took 10.2 gallons to fill and cost 722 pesos with 20 peso tip so $3.43 per gallon...

Thx, Using 20.8-1 gas in Sonoyta is $3.32 and in Penasco it's $4.18 per gallon. I know where I'm filling up tomorrow on my trip to Cholla.

Muebles Coloniales on Constitution, Rheem 30 gal propane was $220 last year. They also sell electric ones. Los Pinos has them too.

Here is what I used for a 1.5 ton Mirage Mini-Split, see the Amazon link below. $49, I used the Model 4P, which was overkill. I've seen unit's installed on welded wall brackets made in Penasco. For covers I went to Tapiceria Ornelas Upholstery Shop on Constitution 4 houses north of Fermadera...

On Benito Juarez west side of the road next door to Hacienda del Sol furniture. It's upstairs.

$16 burgers, Nope. Especially when you can get a 1/3lb cheeseburger with fries and a ice cold tap beer in a frozen mug for $7 at Ricky's Beer across from Sam's Club. The wings are also pretty good. Lot's of locals with a growing population of Americans too eating there. My local buddy told me...

Someone posted on FB, last month, that they were told shooting for a mid-April-early summer opening. Last week, my neighbors walked by it and said it still needed a lot of work to be done. Only 2-3 guys were working on it when I stopped by last month FYI, The JJ's bartenders Cesar and Berto are...

The line is building at 2pm Friday. 1/2 mile long so far.

Actually the wind mills aren't turning because the operators can't/won't sell the power produced cheaply as CFE sells it. You might see them start spinning again if there's a power shortage in Sonora.

The shore line in Cholla Bay behind Comp Hill has pretty good fishing.

Noooo!! they Stucco'd over the burro with the drunk hombre :( on the back bar wall. Hopefully he get's re-painted.

Now the policia are going need new displays for their radar guns with 67kph instead of 55 being displayed all the time.

The food was hit or miss, sometimes just what you needed and cooked OK and then there were the times we wished we went elsewhere. In the last 15 years I have never eaten there in late May-mid Oct, But 5-15 years before that I just wanted tacos and beer even in July, so it didn't matter.

I've seen the X-Mas night parade a few times now, boy some of those rigs have hours of work in getting them ready.

I also heard it was a lease, I was told 3-5 years, They are going to do some remodeling, I heard they are installing A/C, re-doing the Kitchen and bathrooms. they are re-doing the front and side patios with an arch? at the entrance. The old outside taco stand is being re-done into? Bar/Taco...

JJ, I've parked there a 5-6 times, I find a guy to watch my car and pay him $5. I then tell him there's more $ coming when we return. So far not a scratch, but we have nothing of real value left inside of it. Heck the car was even washed for me with water when we returned. LOL Now we go to...

Joe, Yes border is still closing at 8pm. On Federal holidays it will stay open till 10pm.

This is what you need, I have one and it pumps tires up pretty quickly, not scuba tank fast but still does a good job. It has a 10 ft extension hose too. I keep one in my Jeep.

We drove by JJ's last week and they are still demoing stuff, the only progress on new stuff was adding a wall in front and a entrance arch? for a new front patio??? The outside taco stand had some of the open areas walled up. I would guess another 2-3 months to go. Cholla was much quieter...
