Thanks for your nice comment, Tom, I am listening to El Paso by Marty Robbins. Gwen and I passed through El Paso twice this month on the way to Tucson and back and looked for Rosa's Cantina, but did not see it. We concluded that it cannot be seen from I-10.

Oh Don...that was my father's favorite song. He literally wore the record out...it was gray and fuzzy and you could barely hear the song over the hissing.
I miss my father so much :-(

Welcome to The Forum, Tom.

OK, let me just say that azurite is my favorite mineral, because azure blue is my favorite color.
But those azurite lips just look creepy!
