(I went with a friend to visit some other friends, who are 'Winter Texans' -retirees from the upper middle-West who spend the coldest months of winter down in the Rio Grande Valley. During the visit, we made a day-trip to Progresso, Mexico. Which as you can see, is a hotbed of economic activity, especially as regards dentists, plastic surgeons, purveyers of spiritious liquers, as well as various consumer goods.)

(Actually, I escaped without buying anything but a pendent - a fossil of a shell, set in silver - but a lot of what was for sale was more interesting, than really tempting.)
