yea i stayed in the boyscouts till i was about 17 so that i could go on the camping trips, summer camp at catalina, canoeing down the colorado river, etc. i never made it past 1st class in rank though. no where close to being an eagle scout.
i also played soccer. i was on the jv team at the private school i went to in tennessee. very few people knew about soccer in 1969 in the south. i continued playing ayso in calif till i was as old as they allow. i also plyed little league baseball. i played football for 3 years before soccer as well as basketball. i think basketball is my favorite to play, but not to watch. too bad i was never that good at it.
bordertowns like we were discussing are terrible places to vacation unless you are underage and want to go drinking and whoring. not a very good idea even then. they are good places to go for the day and be home by dark or shortly afterwards. of course once you get below them things are nice and the people warm. not really vacation places unless you go all the way to the tip of baja where but i've heard even that can get boring quickly.
i went to mexico city and acapulco with my church group when i was 13. that was a long time ago but i would still bet they are both nice vacation spots to this day. the pyramids around mexico city still stand out in my mind. as do the cliff divers in acapulco.
oh, and none of my clients have ever threatened me in any way. they were all wonderful people who were more scared than threatening. i miss them.
