Adventures in Imperial

In the never ending quest for a good investment, I drove over 350 miles today to check out tax-defaulted properties in Imperial County. This is San Diego's neighboring county to the east, consisting mostly of desert and farmland. Some of these properties were truly horrible, but depending on what they sell for, it might be an opportunity. I'd like to say I've seen worse, but I don't think I have!

It's always a pleasure to drive through the eastern part of San Diego County, known to the locals as the "backcountry". Here's a shot of the rolling hills in Santa Ysabel.
