Historic manual ferry

We came across this manual ferry that would take you over the Rio Grande River to Mexico. And yes, there were customs agents on the American side to check you back in. There was no money wasted on a grand building though, it was a very small shack which could only fit one of the two customs agents inside.

This ferry was manually driven and was the only one of its kind in the U.S. We took our bikes across and then biked about 3 miles to the nearest town.
