the US and Mex border if you look closely at the 2nd stanchion from the left you see a stick sticking out horizontally, a marker showing the way to water, there was a stock tank on top of the hill...

this was taken in Tinnie, NM, at the Tinnie Silver Dollar steakhouse and saloon... thought it was super cool to see it preserved so well... this was the original bar from Al Capone's bar in Chicago, removed and put in storage when they tore the bar down... bought and moved to NM years later and installed here...

It would take a full house to beat that pair.
Very interesting , Thanks for sharing.
Pretty well kept place. Didnt look too busy in there. Did you two thugs scare away all the patrons? :wink:
that was in Tinnie NM a long way from Johns... :biggrin: it was a Sunday morning and the rest of the crowd was in the back room on the buffet... was a great looking spread on the buffet line but they wanted $19+tax to eat there :nofgr: so I kept my cheap butt over where I was...
Holy crap! I would have too. :huh:
actually it was brunch and with the spread they put out if you were interested, it was well worth it... I just didn't want to eat that heavy and then ride all day too...
that was the day I rode from Roswell, NM into Johns place outside of Sierra Vista... just checked it, was about a 460 mile day, just about right...
