On Day 11 a Mexican offered me his sister at a good price.

Today's work was pretty simple. I removed the last of the supports on the old T1 trailer such that they could move it with forklifts (an interesting sight). Afterwards, we put some conduit around some datalink cable, and at about 2 we (the Purdue guys and myself) were given the afternoon off at which point we went to Nogales, a border town.






Mexico was interesting, I bought some Coke (the drink, not the drug), which is made with sugar not corn syrup in Mexico, a poncho (which I negotiated down from 45$ to 15) and some tequila (13 bucks!). We also watched a convoy of a dozen cars, trucks and vans bellow by armed to the teeth by law enforcers (saw one carrying a G36) in quite a hurry. After that excitement, I went back to drinking my absurdly huge margarita.





Some other things that happened or that I noticed today were:

The bolt that was bleeding huge amounts of liquid:
The donkey named George Bush I got to sit on:
And a guy who threw his shirt at some girl.
