I gave them the benefit of the doubt the first time, but when I saw the second caption I had to put the hammer down.

I thought in the first photo they were comparing the Carthay to a church in Glendale, but as you can see in the second photo, they are geographically challenged:

Ok, Fifth Street. Thanks.

If there is a Col. Libertad street in TJ, the photo may allude to that. I wasn’t sure.

Esta bien.

Ken, this address doesn’t map out. There is a 7691 Calle Salvador Diaz Miron in TJ, which may be the correct address.

There’s an extra L in Vermilion, in the title, so it doesn’t map correctly.
