Sometime our fruit was confiscated. I think they do it to keep out disease from other states. I too, question the efficacy of this.

Having traveled through those checkpoints between Nevada and California on the I-80 many times, I always thought they were completely useless. <br /><br />"Where are you coming from?

Anyways, there are several wonderful fruit stands you will pass by as you treavel through the Central Valley, my wonderful home. You can get a whole huge bag of oranges for $1.Travis Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05316598904901942586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5840391935042402803.post-17603342960125320942011-03-01T17:32:54.143-08:002011-03-01T17:32:54.143-08:00Ok, I laughed out loud and nobody else was here......Ok, I laughed out loud and nobody else was here...that lady didn't know what she was getting herself into!
