Off to Tres Amigos RV park on Stone Island, Mazatlan south

We took a drive down to Teacapan, Isla Paraiso RV park ... guess we will have our choice of spaces ... as there is no one here yet ! We happened to be there when the ladies from town/around were having lunch here at the restaurant. We also visited a few that live on Cuottro Circle. Everything looks so green and has grown tall since 1 1/2 years ago when we left. We move tomorrow, Weds. 100 km to drive. It will be slow going though, there is some construction on #15 Libre and a few new potholes just going into Teacapan, where the new asphalt ended.

Our first site of the Sea of Cortez ... nice to see it again !!!


We spent our first night at Walmart in Omak. Of course we did some shopping ... went into the store 3 times before we finally left Sat. morning ... around 10 am. Travels through Nevada High Dessert, we saw snow on the top ... behind us was a snow storm brewing !


We finally got all packed and hit the road Friday, Oct 15 around 3:30 pm. We had no problems at the border, taking about 10 minutes ... a record for us ! Maybe because it was 4 pm and they close at 5 !!!



First of all ... Motorhome paint job turned out awesome !! Alex did it in our back yard !
