Life in Laredo in the 70's & 80's wasn't exciting.
There were River Raft Races in the Rio Grande that had to stop, rumor has it, because someone grew an extra eye. (Don't quote me on this.)
Somethings haven't changed. Enjoying Breakfast Tacos (a.k.a. Mariachis) on Saturday morning and the smell of fajitas cooking on the South Side that same evening. People driving the wrong way in the grocery parking lot.
But other things have come full circle and are almost surreal. (Sushi in Laredo? I mean, come on. REALLY?)
Whether you've lived in Laredo your whole life, or have only been there a few times, I'm sure you'd agree with me that it truly seems like it's "1000 Miles From Nowhere."
