Wed. Nov. 9th

While walking around on some of the landings I notice Doug truck parked in the back yard  only problem  this is about 20 ft below the road up front this maybe a challenge to get out of the back yard with out a helicopter ????
Note the interesting cieling fans only in mexic

This is the way they are cooking our ribs the fan is to get the coals good and hot before they put the gril down

Wow

On the way home we stopped to see Dougs house being built in Mazatlan Doug is Mikes Nephew pretty awsume 4 different levels he still has quite away to go but wow

front view wow
Roger and Susie's Travels To days program  meet with a guy to do some fiber glass repairs to our boat that we use in Mazatlan our trailer that we use to move our boat because of the rough roads is has caused the bottom to crack (and we do not want to sink.) Susie and Peggy went to town to do what girls do (nail hair shopping ????) Robin and I made a trip into Mazatlan via his jeep for material (at Home depot) to build him at set of stairs Of course we need to do lunch (what better place then the fat Fish restaraunt) on the way home we stopped at Astra del mar golf and country club to set a tee time for golf tomorrow life is good

The next morning we crossed into Mexico our first stop San Carlos (took about 2 hours to get through mile 21) Mexican visiters visa and vehicle permits etc. We stayed a extra day in San Carlos to wait for Tim Cherl & Paul The next day we all headed  out in pairs and met at Los Moches  We herd from the last group to get to Stone Island that they had a close call with a bandito on the road off the high way towards the air port (A bandito with a mask and a gun came up onto the road every body drove like hell and foiled his robbery attempt but he did shoot off his gun in the air) So after leaving Los Moches on our last leg of the trip we call ahead to let king David ( the Park owner ) when we would arrive on the highway to the air port (4 rigs all together) and he set up a police escort for us to take us into Stone Island (How cool was that) We all arrived safe and sound and glad to be finally here sorry about spelling my spell check wants to change every thing into spanish

Oct 30th Lazy day RV site Tucon

Roger and Susie's Travels Well after leaving Avi Friday we landed at a Walmart in Phoenix area thinking we would stay over night (no go) so we left there and headed to Mesa camping world it was dark and the traffic was bruttle (not good) but arrived with out any problems (thank heaven for the Garmin GPS) the next day we went shopping Costco and 99 cent store then headed off to Lazy days RV park Tucon to meet up with Peggy and Robin got there had a beer then we all went to do a hot tub (was that ever great at getting rid of the driving stress) My shoulder has been bothering me this trip I think it is due from being up tight driving but that will get curred when we hit Mexico and relax. Expecting Tim and Sherl to arrived today Sunday then its happy hour
