The large, several lane checkpoint that was built last year on the highway approximately 5 to 7 miles south of Maneadero and has sat vacant since completion was full of soldiers today when I passed through and it looks like they were gearing up to go into business.

A friend forwarded this photo to me a few months back and right now I can't recall who it was to give them credit. I'm sure that I will hear about it soon enough...

Do you think they will keep the other one open by the grape fields? Or is this just for the race?

When I passed through the checkpoint south of San Vicente (that one?) it was still in operation today...

When we went down south a few weeks ago we noyicer that big trucks are already tearing it up . I wondered why they built the lanes so narrow.
There is a new permenate check point on the Tecate Highway that isnt being used.

It will be - eventually...

They'll be sniffing for money for sure, but will they catch the diamonds in toothpaste?

A friend who just passed through yesterday tells me that the group manning the newest checkpoint are the marines vs the army at the checkpoint between San Vicente and Colonet.
