Spotted Mexican Zebra!!!
Yes, BB2005 and I spotted this "zebra" near our local school this morning. What a character! After taking two pictures, I handed the guy 20
pesos, at which point the "zebra" must have thought it was the end of the workday. He lay down and absolutely refused to get up. Didn't want to
embarrass the guy by photographing the work "laydown."

I thought you said he was a "spotted" zebra. Looks like a typical TJ zebra to me.

"Spotted" used as a verb. Clever, no?
And welcome back, by the way.

So it says that you "spotted" a TJ zebra. Did you put spots on a zebra because I still didn't see any spots on him.
Perhaps you "located' a TJ zebra.

Cool paint job. Must be a good donkey to stand still for those perfect stripes. One would think that guy could make quite a bit of $ if he were there
during the busy tourist weekends. How long until they get the idea up at La Buff?

Any spots on it? | No spots at my
house. If they went all the way to Labuf it may have had spots by then!

Bob H's photo reminded me that I had one on file as well.
This photo was taken in front of the El Sarape in T.J., circa 1940's.
My grandmother is seated on the lower right hand corner, my grandfather is opposite her on the upper left hand side.
My mother got in big trouble for drawing the blue ink moustaches on the photo when she was a child.
