Sheriff's Deputy Dave
Larimer is one of our local law enforcement patrol officers. He's got a
busy beat this close to the border! |
The
Palominas Apartments, with great views of all the nearby mountain
ranges. I can't say if they are in business or not! |

Roadside
memorial on Hwy92 near King's Ranch Road.
If you've ever wondered who this was for, here is the
tribute to the person that died here:
"En Memoria Victor Guerrero Olmedo, 20 Sept. 1996" |

| Did you know of this
Registered National Historic Landmark? It is located on Lehner Road,
which runs east off of Palominas Road. It is named the Lehner Mammoth-Kill Site
and was dedicated in 1967. The top plaque reads something and the bottom
plaque reads something! I started to place that information here
under the photo, but its too long, and its too late, so you'll just have
to drive out there to see it! Quick, though - there might be a
house built there soon. Really, its neat that it is here, and you
should see it. |

In
addition to a river of water running through Palominas, we also have a river
of steel. These tracks are not very often used though, and after I took the first
photo on the left, I started working my way south (That's Mexico there in the
background), I must have walked miles (see how much closer the mountains look? - Thank God for telephoto
lenses!) looking for old Hereford and other ghost towns. About the
only things I did find along the way were discarded articles of clothing
and empty water bottles by the ton! Talk about a recycling
opportunity. Well, eventually, I did see a train, lumbering north
on the solitary track through Palominas and whistling its farewell to a
land of many blends and unique history. |
