On the highway coming back to San Felipe from The Pacific side. This guy was really cool to watch. Made a basket right before our eyes! Yes....we bought a box full to support his trade...

Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

I love those sturdy baskets. My wife bought a small basket with a cover in TJ and I noticed it was kinda wobbly, thin, and poorly made. I looked on the bottom and read "Hecho en China".

I still think there is Crack somewhere in the equation. The baskets are just a front!

We have three beautiful baskets very similar to his from a gentlemen who sells his wares just north of Colonet on Hwy. 1 ... They are just incredible.
