Mixed feelings. So many wonderful memories but great to be back and: see the girls; visit the cemetery to report in to the Master Sergeant and Mom; and, of course for Robin, stop at the world renown Icey Freeze LINK.
Amazing Journey recap:
- 4+ months and 7500 miles.
- Nary a bad experience anywhere
- No hinky feelings in Mexico - NEVER worried about safety.
- So nice to go in a Mexican campground and not be given a huge list of rules like in the US (all of which are commons sense courtesy).
- Not a single rude person anywhere
- Mexicans graciously helped us whenever they saw we were lost, confused, etc. Classic was when we were in the center of a small city with TINY roads and a policeman pulled up next to us and said "Amigo! You are lost!" He then turned on his light bar and escorted us to the highway with a huge smile.
- No vehicle issues with exception of a 2" minor hole in the back where I backed into something in an RV park. So minor we may not fix it.
- Generator is in shop but that is normal fair wear and tear.
- Beautiful scenery everywhere.
Thanks to faithful and loyal readers of this blog. Your comments and back-channel emails gave me inspiration to carry on blogging.
Now to plan the next amazing journey.
You journey was amazing. Glad we were part of your trip and that you stopped by. We talk about it all the time.

DeleteGlad to hear you both are back home safe and sound. The light is always on at the Stately Claw Manor for a return trip. As Bob Hope always said, "Thanks for the memories."
ReplyDeleteYou, your bride and Scooby provided US with so many memories. We would have never seen YNP like we did with you. Now to plan the next trip!
DeleteIt may not be amazing, but you can always journey to Ohio!! I don't know if the RV could make the turn up the driveway but one can always try. So glad you had this adventure and that I "joined" you part way through. Thanks for blogging!
ReplyDeletetext Robin your address and I'll look at Google Earth and see. That would be fun. Except for the snakes. The Kids would be fun though. :-)

DeleteOne adventure down, more to come! It was great seeing you along thr way!
ReplyDeleteAfter all those years it was fantastic. So many great memories from SMA. Thanks for letting us crash the party.
DeleteI loved reading the blog and hope you wont stop just cause you are home. What are your plans? Will you stay in that RV park?
ReplyDeleteNah on the blog. It would be boring because we'll just be doing normal things. Yes, we are staying at the RV park where we have a yearly site. Will do some work on Robin's Dad's house and plan a trip somewhere, maybe New England? Catching up on routine Dr appts, taxes, vehicle maintenance, etc. Thanks for the memories in Louisiana and your hospitality. Even getting busted by the Police!
