A final word on "Norma the neighborhood Cow" According to Norma's original owner, Norma was at least 20 years old. Her last calf was born spring of 2013. What a gal.!!!
Norma did not die of "old age". She stumbled over a rock and as she fell she impaled her horn into the ground and broke her neck. It was a quick death.

Second Bancomer ATM problem today Sunday 6/1/2014 at 7:45 am.   Funds debited from stateside checking account but not disbursed by the ATM.   Dispute in process. (I assume this is fixed now)
=================================

     Road Report for Mexico 15 to Nogales via the Baja Ferry, and points north, not so smooth sailing this time as road detours and they are fixing the roads. There were a few detours and more stops than usual. It seemed that you would get rolling at a good speed, use cruise control, then, you would be stopped for: a toll booth, which from Toplobampo to Nogales is about $60, but they will only accept Mexican Pesos. Or you would get stopped for a military check, usually just let you go, but slow you down. Or you would come to a detour, and that would certainly slow you down. Then it would be back to 60-70 miles an hour and then another stop to spray your vehicle. So, instead of the 6-8 hours to the border it was more like 10-12 hours. They are improving the roads and quite a bit of construction and no driving on any kind of dirt road or huge pot holes. Although, the toll road is being improved and there are rough road areas. By the time I drive back in December, these improvements should be done, and nice two lanes going south and nice two lanes going north with ‘shoulders’! There are more Pemex Stations right on Mexico 15 than are probably needed and many OXXOs to get coffee, snacks, free ice, and they are usually attached or in the same plaza as the Pemex Stations. Some Pemex Stations near big cities, like Los Mochis, CD Obregon, and Hermesillo and of course Nogales take US Credit Cards for gas. You should make sure they put the pump back to “0” and stay alert with the attendant while he is pumping the gas.
     If you are wanting to go through Tecate, Mexicali, Algodones, and points west then in Santa Ana is the intersection where you make the left turn to points west on Mexico 2 or 3.
     There were enough delays with all the stops, that we ended up at Santa Ana about 90 miles south of the Nogales border. So, spent the night in Santa Ana, Hotel Mision, on left as you enter Santa Ana, Pet Friendly, with nice grassy area for dogs to poop/pee, bar-b-que and tables and chairs, park in front of your room, clean rooms with television, and about $55 USD. OXXO, and places to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner within a mile. Happy Trails.
