Here are some photos I promised


We had pretty messy weather on the way down to California but the weather got nicer and Mike's first priority was to clean the rig and the car. 

I finally got a cool shot of these wind machines lined up in an orderly fashion.  These are near Desert Hot Springs, California.







Arhgggggggggg...

Well, it appears that I am not going to be allowed to download any more photos tonight and I had lots more to show you.

We will be leaving Mazatlan in the morning and should be in Lo de Marcos in the late afternoon.  For our friends who are coming down I'll let you know the road situation when we get internet access.  We have decided to take the road to Tepic and down because we've heard that the road through San Blas is not ready for heavy vehicles yet.  We will unhook the car and I will drive it down from Tepic behind the motorhome.

I also want folks to know that there is a good presence of federalies and army and that we have seen no reason not to come to Mexico.  As I think I said in my last blog, the roads are good as expected so far and there are a few people travelling together, we being one of them.   A nice place to stay in Guayamas is at the Hotel de Cortez.   It is a long day's drive from there to Mazatlan but the San Fernando RV park is ok.  The bathroom leaves a bit to be desired but the shower has one of those big round heads on it and it is great to use.  If you stop in Mazatlan check out the Fat Fish restaurant only a few blocks away from the rv park.  The ribs are EXCELLENT.  The price is 160.00 for two. We walked there two nights in a row and had no problems with anyone.  There are not a lot of people in Mazatlan yet and the lady at the restaurant asked us to let our friends know about them. 

Until next time,
Drive carefully for our friends coming down here and hello to everyone who can't or won't come.  You don't know what you are missing.
