Photos from the border

Jeff and I spent some time looking for Gator fans among the Mexican markets on the El Paso side of the U.S.-Mexican border.

But there were none to be found among the crowds of people shuffling in and out of the many shops that line both sides of the street.

"If they're playing in the Sun Bowl, we care," Holiday Inn shuttle driver Lorenzo Anchondo quipped as he dropped us off at the crossing. Anchondo gave us a fascinating tour of El Paso that Jeff will hit on in his entry tonight.

Regardless, there was plenty to see among the bustling stores and restaurants greeting Mexicans as they cross the bridge spanning the Rio Grande.
