    The Police in Sonoita are out of control!

    I use Google maps and make sure that the traffic feature is selected. It's seems to be accurate but I've checked the border coming in on Fri the 14th it showed 1/4 mile line when I was in Why and 25 minutes later there were 10 cars in front of us as we crossed south. So not perfect.

    The Police in Sonoita are out of control!

    Raving LOL, Raving isn't part of my MO or my Portfolio. Just stating fact's that pertain to me, as well as some others, who have posted their IRA's are doing similarly well. Not fake. The current stock market run is great and the new political environment is definitely helping that to continue...

    Last night's Lunar Eclipse

    Thx, I used my Panasonic FZ1000 bridge camera, 1" sensor at 200mm, 2-3 secs, f4, ISO 400. I cropped it about 20% in Photoshop. I wedged the camera against my column on my patio to keep it steady because I didn't bring my tripod and the wind was blowing 10 mph with gusts at 4:30am. My 1st few...

    The Police in Sonoita are out of control!

    I've reposted this: Here is something for future reference, supposedly if you go to the station and pay the fine is reduced by 50%. Never pay the Police directly. Here is some info from the Sonoyta Police Commander. Police chief Miguel Angel Trujillo this number is to his cellphone...

    The Police in Sonoita are out of control!

    I guess you missed the IF Not part of my statement. I am very confident with my financial strategy. But, I do have a plan B because as confident as I am, you can't always plan for the unseen things that get in the way. All of the shortages we are seeing is because of all the producers shutting...

    I agree. It's always been tough on the little guys getting by from check to check. I was one of them a long time ago.

    Disingenuousness of your comment, LOL Hopefully I'll have enough $$ to pay for all the inflation, taxes etc. If not, I'll adjust my lifestyle. At the end of the day I'll always have enough $$ to enjoy my life. So I'm in a good place. As far as politics go, If you have been paying attention...

    The Police in Sonoita are out of control!

    I'm not trying to make this political. Well a 25-30% increase in my IRA's value sure helps and a whole lot less WTF comments/ideas from the Agent Orange former Prez. My future just went from a candle bright to a 250 watt spot light in the last 6 months. The frail Prez isn't even close to...

    Follow up to my previous post. We came down to Cholla today, lot's of Friday traffic going south. Arrived at the border at 10AM, 2 lanes open going into Mexico, RH lane which we were in, they were waving all cars thru. Waited 2-3 minutes cruised thru town going 35KPH. We saw ONE police car...

    The Police in Sonoita are out of control!

    I saw the fine list for Penasco's fines and they use a similar pricing scheme. It really makes no sense. If the officer tells you to pay him, just keep insisting to pay at the station.

    The Police in Sonoita are out of control!

    Our son went back to Phx today, at 10am had a 15 minute wait, he saw 2 Sonoyta police cars sitting off the road. He got a thorough check by the CBP agents. He said there was a heavy Park ranger, Sheriff presence all the way to Why and Sheriff's to Ajo. He thought they were baiting people by...

    May 1 Mexican National Holiday????

    This is a busy time of the year as the weather is almost perfect, but the wind still blows 20+ a few days a week in April and May. I drove back to Phx on Thurs and was very surprised at the amount of traffic heading south. At noon there was a 1/4 line at the border and close to a 1/4 mile line...

    masks in RP

    3 weeks ago they only let my wife into Sam's, I had to wait in the car. It's been that way every time we've gone to Sam's since Aug 2020. I've seen a few irate customers who we're allowed to go in with their spouses during this time.
