This blog is for family and friends. It won't be fancy. We'll include pictures as much as possible. If you want to be notified of new posts, put your email in the block to the right. Then you can read the narrative (no pictures).
- A request: if you read it, comment now and then so we know it is being read. If you don't we'll lose interest.
The recurring question: "Aren't you afraid?" Well, yes. We have to go through Houston going in and Tuscon leaving. We are very active in RV websites that have forums on Mexico. Been doing this for many years. There are a lot of folks snowbirding in RV's all over Mexico. There have been ZERO RV'er deaths. There have been one or two truck hijacking's of trucks in about 10 years.
Trip Overview
- Start from Charlotte where we're doing wedding prep for Andi and David's wedding.
- Head towards New Orleans; maybe stop at Ft Benning and show Robin Airborne school.
- 3 nights in New Orleans.
- Head west for a fewhours to Welsh, LA for a 3 night reunion with old Army Korea friends, Dave and Carolyn Lejeune. Plan includes a Sat night in a cajun honky-tonk complete with crawfish, beer, and dancing.
- Head down the east coast of Texas towards Mexico. Probably stay a few hours from the border at Naval Air Station Kingsville.
- Cross the border at Reynosa - Hildago and spend a few days with RV.Net friends Chris and Juan in Monterrey.
- From here on, who knows? In general terms we'll go down the center in the Colonial highlands. Somewhere we'll head west to the coast. Then we'll work north towards a border crossing at Nogales, AZ.
- Back in the US, we'll hit: Grand Canyon, Vegas, Denver (son Luke and family), Salt Lake, Yellowstone and then ???. Probably return to NC in June.
The elephant in the room? What happens if the house sells while we are way down south in Mexico?
Looks awesome! Safe travels.
