P.S.: On a related note the long-awaited renovation of the Taco Bell/KFC across the street appears to be nearing completion. Liquid cheese, here I come!

Reminds me of the wagon driver’s response to Claudia Cardinale in “Once Upon A Time In The West”, when she asks to be driven out to her new husband’s ranch, Sweetwater, a less-than-fertile piece of property, : “That stubborn redheaded lrishman, tilling sand for years out in the middle of nowhere. Sweetwater! Only a loony like him could call that stinking piece of desert Sweetwater. Sweetwater!”
