Happy New Year John and Diane
 
I took Sam with me “South of the Border” into Los Algodones, Mexico on January 1, 2012.  This is a most interesting little border town where the downtown area has mostly dental, vision and ear doctor services available.  There are many pharmacy places to get cheap prescription drugs and lots of places to buy handmade Mexican goods.  I thought your family would enjoy seeing the nightmare “electrical supply pole” in Los Algodones, probably not quite up to American code.  I left Sam near the US border re-entry station, under a lovely tree, ready for someone else to pick up.
