A Long Trip!

Roger tells me we have travelled some 2781  miles since leaving Enumclaw to arrive here in Los Barriles, Baja.  When we left Casa Grande summer of 2012, we headed to South Dakota to get our drivers license renewed, and see our "home town" of Madison, SD.  From there we headed north, visited Glacier Nat'l Park, stopped at Little Diamond Thousand Trails park, heading west to Enumclaw to visit family and friends.  Course we had all the usual visits to our fav docs too!  My sister Nancy and her husband Lon moved to WA from CA this summer so we got a visit in with them before we headed south.  We also got to do a camp out with our golf buddies in Raymond, WA as well as a great potluck with the same group.  Hard as it was to do, leaving all these good folks, we headed south to Casa Grande to open our park model for the season.  Again, so fun to see all our AZ friends and neighbors!  Our goal was to dump everything we would need in Baja on the deck, put the motor home in storage, toss what we could (always trying to pare out "stuff"!) load up the Jeep and leave on 10/29/12 for the Baja....One night in Yuma to cross to Algodones for visas and pesos, then 2 more nights, pulling into Los Barriles on Nov 1,2012...  4 days early as it turns out!  Oh we'll, it's Mexico and it was fine.  Seems we need to check our notes more carefully when making long range plans!  We are happy in our casa and settled in pretty well. I've posted photos of friends and family, Kevin's birthday party, Roger's birthday party, wet scoccer games, our 9 & Dine campout, and views from our casa decks here in LB.  We have some happy trails....
