Heading even further South

I forgot to include this in my last post.  These two not so young girls were pulling a toy behind them like they were taking their toy for a walk.  Is this  a new fad?

They have cleared and leveled some land here in the state park and have almost completed these cabins which I assume will be for rent.  There are a least a dozen in the completion phase.

The wind picked up Sunday morning which shut down the R/C flying club.  Here Colin is taking down our dish as the wind was constantly gusting.  Last thing we need is a broken LNB before we cross the border.

The wind blew all afternoon. We eventually brought in the bedroom slide out which is something we have never had to do before because of wind.

Despite the wind we still enjoyed our time here.

We were on the road by 7:30 today/Monday.  You never know what is going to pass you on I10.  The road may be boring but some neat things may catch your attention.

Lots of dust in the distance.  ??farmers in the field.

What the heck is this?

However did this transformation happen?

Quite the change in scenery.

We got to our stop for the night.  Usually we stay at the Passport America park called Mountain View in Amado for $16.00 per night but they are having major issues with electrical sites that we could fit into and their credit card payment machine is down, so we ended up next door at Deanza RV Park which cost us $49.80 for one night with our Good Sam discount 😯  $33.00 more per night 🙄

It has not been an easy last night here in the US.   We are having major problems transferring our business cell to our home phone number which will send any voice message to us via our email.  It is refusing to work.  We are three hours in for a solution.  Not looking good.

Mi Telcel will not recognize my Mexican cell phone number.  That is a minor problem.  Worse case I will just get a new SIM.

It was a long driving day.  It took 8 hours with a 30 minute break and we covered 358 miles.

Last night ( Sunday ) in Lake Havasu,  the sun set and the wind finally slowed down.

Can you spot the birds nest at the top?

Working on fitting our new AC units behind our seats before we leave in the morning.

Looks like we are good to go.

    Can’t believe Colin doesn’t have roof top sat. dish, it sure makes it so much easier for setting up.. So excited your next stop will be in Mexico! Have fun in the sun.. Cheers!

      Maybe easier but way much more money. Not worth the investment. Plus we have so many solar panels on the roof that we might not have space.
