Great pictures. Does bring back a lot of memories.

My website describes the conversion of my Dodge B-250 van into a small RV. I deal with a lot of woodworking, but hope to be quite specific on solar as well.

Take the truck on the old road to the old Mariscal 'Quick Silver' mine, but only if road is dry. Ask the Ranger for maps.

Jolooote,

That is good advice, I actually did get an opportunity to spend a couple of hours exploring around the mine. I had to wonder how many miners suffered long term health problems from handling the quicksilver (mercury).
