    That rings a bell in my memories.
    Is this maybe the location of a traditional Horse Fair.
    We have one in Somerset which attracts hundreds of real gypsies (as opposed
    to pikeys) once a year where they trade horses and have a general get
    together. There are always impromptu races often featuring pony and trap
    rigs. This tends to piss off the local constabulary if the festivities
    spread out onto the local roads.

    For years there was a sign on I5 near downtown San Diego that said
    "Cruise ships use airport exit." I keep looking, but I've never seen a
    ship on the freeway.

    Then there is the family crosswalk sign on the 5 up near Camp Pendleton.

    A good friend is a federal firefighter there. They call that stretch
    of I5 the "DMZ" - the Dead Mexican Zone.

    That will be the one at Priddy? I've _never_ seen as much folding money in
    one place as there. Some of those traders were counting out cash from
    *bloody great rolls* of £20 & £50s.

    "The fair has been continuously held every year since 1348, apart from
    the recent 2001 and 2007 foot -and-mouth epidemic years."

    The average speed check / awesome speed check caused a genuine lol.

    Bollocks. I come across this fairly often and really, you'd have to be
    an absolute **** to come to any harm.

    Horse meat has no place on the road. At all. Ever.
