Our Broken Axle at Hermosillo !



About 3 kms south of Hermisillo, there was a thud, I looked out my rearview mirror to see the tag axle wheel sitting crooked and sparks flying ! We somehow were right at the spot where there is a turnoff and Alex got the MH pulled over immediately. Would you guess what we were parked at ??? a machine shop ! with probably the only welder for miles ! So with much hand signals, pointing and body motions .... of course get guys together and they all know what needs to be done. What a bunch of friendly and helpful people. Their yard was a good place to stay overnight too. By noon the next day all was fixed.
Hermosilla is the Capital of the State of Sonora. We didn't spend any time there, but in the Fall we will have to tour the City.
Also, right across from the Machine Shop is a huge Shrine up the side of the mountain. It was Sunday and there were lots of cars and people there.
