Matamoros Street Vender


This is one of the venders who worked in Matamoros, just over the bridge connecting Mexico with the United States in Southern Texas. She sold a variety of things. She had these giant paper flowers and hand crocheted works and hats and who-knows-what. The colors were daze ling. We lived in Brownsville for nearly 20 years and saw a lot of changes across the border in Mexico while we were there. It became less friendly and sometimes hostel when you didn't buy what they held out to you. I am hoping you will feel wecome if you go there now. I have been gone from there for almost 6 years now.
