If you do get clothes down there for the needy......you can give them to a doctors office. We give ours to a nurse we know and she knows how to get them to the people who really need them...especially children. Before I go I take clothes from my school lost and found that is headed for the Good Will (also a good organization). I can hardly believe what a parent will not come and look for when their child loses something. We try hard to get it back to the right child before we send othe stuff off. Itusually sits there for 4 or 5 months before we take it away.

Hola, three years ago, i went to tecate to cross going south and when i opened my utility trailer, the agent called another agent over. i had eleven 30 gal bags full of used clothes and about 25 fishing rods. the second agent said i could only bring in new clothes and with receipts for them and i was only allowed to bring two rods into mexico. i was by myself.

he opened the gate to the U.S. crossing and i told the U.S. agents i was in mexico for about ten minutes and they pulled me into secondary and inspected me.

i drove to tijuana and crossed without any problems and they did look inside my suv and utility trailer.

go figure !

BIEN SALUD, DA RAT

When they ask me about the clothes I bring down I tell them they are for my children and they seem to buy it. No problem so far. Just a little white lie.
