hi clappy, i didn't see much livestock in arizona either but what i did see looked pretty good. mind you, most of the people travelling on the bus from phoenix to mexico had obviously made the trip before 'cause they all had their curtains drawn. harold and i were the only ones gawking at the scenery but we couldn't see very much. up till tucson, the terrain seemed to be pretty flat and 'desertie' but then we started climbing and the it become more hilly and by the time we reached the border we had climbed over 2000 ft. it was all quite different than anything i'd ever seen. anyway, i managed to eat veggie style with no problem over the holiday season except twice. once was turkey dinner on christmas day and the second time was our last dinner in san carlos - i had a chicken something or other. i got this great recipe for prawns - mexican style. i'll post it on drea's board later. i've got to start clearing off my desk first. hate it when work gets in the way of my fun !! :) joser

And I guess they can't milk those herds because they are too difficult to round up. clap, dairy farming and raising cattle for beef are two different operations and i'm not sure which animals are better off. those that stand around in their own crap and piss waiting to be hauled off for a horrendous demise, or the poor cows confined to stalls with milking machines forever attached to their udders. i find myself buying organic dairy products more and more or skipping them all together and going to soy based foods. joser - climbing on the bandwagon
