The Strange and Exotic of Sierra Vista Part 1





This will be a series of pictures/events that we get to see every day in Sierra Vista. If you haven't been here, here is a little map: (yeah, its right by Mexico)




The idea for this Series came to us while we were at church. (I hope none of them know about my blog) There will be pictures from church later to come.




This is "Safety Ossifer of Sierra Vista" At first glance, you might not notice anything out of the ordinary (Except that it is an older man on a totally AWESOME moped.) We didn't think anything of it, till we noticed the handicapped sticker (on the old milk carton AND the licence plate)



Next I notice the little green O2 tank in the ghetto milk carton basket. Hummm.....that is interesting. OH YEAH! He isn't wearing a helmet! Bad Idea? I think it might be.

This was the icing on the cake. Right before he zipped out in front of a car at a 'yield on green' light, Merrill pointed out that he is USING the O2 tank! Yes - you can see the little clear pipe running up his leg and in to his nose.
Lets just hope that next time "Safety Ossifer" zips through a light, he does so in a more safe manner, and avoids the would-be ball of fire that would undoubtedly result from a crash.
You do have to admire him for being out in the heat and enjoying a nice ride through the dessert.
