Yeah, it's a ghost town in Southern Arizona only a few miles from the Mexico border. I was nosing around some of the abandoned buildings in this ghost town. I pushed open a door to a back room in one of the buildings and found this ... the stack of used dishes, bowl of peas and several chairs arranged around a makeshift stove. Very interesting.....

Kinda common to come across these 'camps' near the border. Can be dangerous too. Most of the times the border crossers flee at the first sound of vehicle, not wanting to chance a run-in with the 'migras. I was on the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge a couple of years ago, and came across a bundle of possessions and a half-eaten burrito on the trail. I knew the owner was probably watching me from the trees close-by. It was spooky. Cheers! Chris

su casa, mi casa.... but that's for a different forum. Well done image and the DOF keeps our attention on the beans and bright bowl with a real homey feel to the background... Mike
