A Trip Across the Border

Deming is only 35 miles away from the Mexican border & we were told "The Pink Store" is worth the trip!

So this is what the border looks like!  No problem walking into Mexico...

I love the bright colors of the buildings in Palomas!

Some of the doorways & décor are so beautiful!

Pancho Villa supposedly raised holy hell in this area & there are several statues of him in Palomas plus a state park named for him just across the border in Columbus, NM.

I swear that 50% of the businesses in Palomas were dentists, vision centers and pharmacies where Americans come to have work done at much cheaper prices.

Then, there it was, The Pink Store, with this Mexican greeter outside...

you can see how it got its name! 

Inside there are room after room of Mexican made goods.  It is hard to see everything, but so much fun to shop with the complementary Margarita in hand!
