Haven’t been over there in probably 4 years or so now. Too many stories of people being kidnapped. My 3 daughters are all very pretty, well dressed blondes, and attracted a lot of attention. We would be a large group as some of the grandkids always went too. It just became too worrisome.
[I’ve since lost one of those daughters and we are more subdued now. The old ‘fun times’ are filled with too many memories too.]
I bought the most wonderful table in Matamoros years ago. It is a round carved wood end table with a complete onyx top. There are small lights underneath that can be lit up to show off the onyx. It was downstairs in a Hotel and I asked about buying it and they let me!
Sad that you all can no longer enjoy and help out their economy. How did it get this way?
Sometime after we’d been there, several years at least, we heard of some 2 or 3 dozen bodies were found and at least one report said it was due to some odd religious thing.
It was plain to see there were wealthy homes but they were few compared to impoverished ones and there didn’t appear to be much in between.
Where do you think will it go?
