To "celebrate/mourn" the last day of summer vacation my oldest son and I took a trip out to the Boulevard area to spend a bit of time looking at some railroad sites. He's been itching to head out to the desert and Carrizo Gorge but weather has prevented us, so the Boulevard/ Jacumba area was an acceptable substitute. In our hiking around we came across this

Mortero by Rail explorer




This was his first mortero outside of the ones he had seen at Mission Trails park. He was excited to see something "old" and then proceeded to launch into a conversation about how old it might be. The "find" was a major hightlight of the trip. He still brings it up a week later and has told a lot of his friends about finding it. He's even more motivated for desert season.
