Banning -- The road was lined with American flags, proudly waving in the gusty wind. Two men were pushing a rusty pickup truck while a woman and her grandson waited patiently for the next bus in the 92-degree sun. Next time--on a day off--I should spend a day in this town to explore. Funny how we neglect small towns while en route to another big city....
Temecula, CA -- I would love to meet these folks. They seem to travel right. I also appreciate the "Live Aloha" written on the back of their bus. Looks like they are living it.
This morning, I cross into what some consider a "war zone." For those not involved with drugs and/or prostitution, they should be fine. I sell components to manufacturers, one of which is in Tijuana about five miles south of the Mexican/USA border. So far, I've not run into trouble, but still it's always a good feeling to cross back onto American soil. See you on the other side...
