Good luck

This is what you see coming into the US from Mexico at Naco. It never fails to make us laugh. And wonder. Good luck. Not Thanks for visiting. No Come again soon. Not enjoy your stay in America... It says so much - this one little sign. Very much keeping with the spirit of so many of these little border towns. Direct. Honest. No false pretence here. Nothing showy. Just "here it is - it is what it is - it's dirty - life - beautiful and depressing - and real." Good luck. If you want to go - go. Hope you find what you want. Don't expect too much though. If you've made it this far good for you. Now have your identification in hand and proceed slowly though the blockades and past the guards. Good luck.

I marvel at your ability to express wonder and peace in your writing. Your writing is inspiring.
Cannot help but observe that the sign in this photo is a conjugated form of viajar(bueno viaje) - the verb "to travel".
I think good luck is bueno la suerte. Your cuz en Seattle
