Because of the extremely cold bad weather, we took blankets to Nuevo Progreso. The red light flashed at the Mexican checkpoint and the alarm sounded as a young man approached us and asked to examine the contents of our Jeep. He opened every door, poked around and finally gave us permission to proceed.
There are old ladies begging on the sidewalks among the tourists and Lloyd wanted to take blankets specifically for them. It wasn't long before we had given out the blankets.
Here's a picture of me with one little lady whose name is Manuelita. She was happy to get an extra blanket to wrap up in.
