I ran across a couple of lost wets on our ranch yesterday........pics
They were out of food and water and had been drinking my nasty muddy pond water. They had been walking for 6 days and were lost , our hunting ranch is about 80 miles North of the border and in the middle of nowhere. I really don't see how they can walk thru thick S. Texas brush and cactus and sleep on the ground with all the snakes, spiders and wild animals running around. Since I was busy cutting brush and making the roads driveable again on a tractor/shredder , I just gave them some clean water and a little food and pointed out that they still had about 70 miles to walk if they wanted to get to the town that was their destination. I told them to follow the power line next to the highway , because I had seen the border patrol plane working the highways all day. I really was not in the mood to drive 25 miles to where my cell starts working and call imigration. They kept looking at the 357 mag. on my hip and the squatting one looked really scared , he about shit when I whipped out my camera and told him to smile. Squatting Wet/ Crooked Hat looked to be in his teens. They were lucky that they ran across a gringo that speaks spanish..... My buddy pointed out that for $ 100 they could get a GPS......lol
Stupid wets , why don't they wear camo , even if the migra spotted them they would just assume they were hunters.
The bag in the pic is food that I gave them along with the a gal. jug of clean water , the coke bottle is my pond water that they were drinking............
The last 2 pics are before and after I cleaned out that section.
Then on the way home just as we got up to speed , two bucks jumped out in front of the truck and the first one ate the trailer that I was pulling , guts went all over the place...........
Wow Spray! All that excitement in just one day.... We're gonna start calling you Indiana Jones! BTW, you did the right thing on the Messicans.... did they offer to cut your lawn before moving on?

Them boys can be hanging sheet rock or pounding roofing nails by Tuesday!
You should have asked if they could tile and steered them toward Big Mike. Thanks for doing your part to keep the US economy humming.
Yea, you did the right thing. As much as I hate seeing them tearing up neighborhoods with couches and chairs out on the front lawn and lemons hanging out of their beers, some of those folks are just trying to survive the best they know how. I'd probably do it too, if I were totallly in their shoes.... Stipp pisses me off when I see the grafitti getting worse and closer to my neighborhood....
You did the right thing. These people are looking for a better life, like anyone else. Hopefully they will either be caught and returned or actually make as honest a life as they can in the states.
