[AGL] Mexican Resources

[Charles Loving]

Lived in Mexico for five years in an abandoned mining town which was pretty
cool. Ed tried for years to buy property there. He finally did when he has
a son in Mexico.The red tape was outlandish. We couldn't buy the place we
wanttd to buy. It would have taken years to get the paper work in order.
