Onward to the Baja once again January 24th - 28th, 2014

We are going back to the Baja again (actually we already here, but let me catch you up).  Mike, Charlie, Rosie and myself packed up on January 24th and headed in a Southwesterly direction.  Our first stop along the journey was a little side trip to Liberal, Kansas to meet our new freshly arrived to the world friend Mallory King, daughter of our friends Ashley and Andy King.  It was fun to make that stop.


Afterwards we headed on down the road to Tucumcari, New Mexico and stayed at the Cactus RV Park..... which I will say was just okay.  Although the next morning we had a great breakfast at the Route 66 Café (I do like to talk a lot about the food we eat along the way).  Then we went west to Deming, New Mexico and to tell you the truth it was so unspectacular (the RV Park that is) that I can not even remember anything about it..... how sad.


Once we left Deming the next day we made it to Yuma, AZ.  Let me tell you, Yuma is the RV Park capital of the world (or so it seemed).  And especially RV Parks for 55+....it was a good thing I had Mike with me.  We did end up staying in an "Age restricted park" called the Westwind RV and Golf Resort.  The only really good thing about it was that I felt really young!  The following day we made it to Potero County Park in California.  We got all set up and then we went to Tecate (which is a Mexican/US border town) to get our Visa and Passport stamped so that when we crossed the border on Tuesday, January 28th we could just drive on in.


Well, the last time we crossed there they did not stop us, but this time they did.  They went in the camper and then they asked Mike if we had any alcohol or arms.  He told them we had some beer and no arms.  I told him he should have said he had two arms and then held up his arms one and two.... somehow that probably was not a good idea.
