Mexican Highway


Well we are still hanging out at the trailer park in San Diego...day 3 today. At least we are safe here....We are surrounded by really big coaches...we are definately the smallest rig here. I just can't believe the weather we are seeing....frightening really....just when you think there is hope and you might get to do something bam!! Bill and I just went for a short 25 minute jog before dinner to pick up our van we had to leave at a public park down the road because a water line broke right in front of the campground we are staying at....like there is not enough water flooding everything already?? we just got back and it started to hail....huge....Bill and I have never seen hail like that.

On a more positive note we went to 4 museums yesterday...the natural history museum, air & space, history of man & an art museum...you can imagine how happy Bill was about that..not exactly his bag. Tried to go to the San Diego Zoo today but was told at the gate that all the animals have been hiding all week so if we didn't want to see empty stalls and maybe some poo to not bother spending our money. We drove by Sea World and it was closed.

I guess we won't be going to Mexico any time soon. Some of the roads washed out and some bridges are done, so we need to go to plan B whatever that is. We should have listened to that coin we flipped as it told us to go to Tahoe...now highway 15 is closed and we can't get there. It could be worse we could be in Mexico...see attached photos....

We don't have TV, so we can't see how bad things are in LA.

Please drop us a note..as that seems to be our only entertainment right now!

  4. It is too bad you did not have room for a boat when you were packing, maybe you need to get the boards out and sail and sail down to Mexico.

    all is well here, we had a beautiful sunny day, the snow was melting, but it has clouded over now, I guess the rain is on its way.

    Started my training for Disney, but it is slow going up to 5 km on the treadmill. Have a long way to go.

    Visited with Grandma today, she is just loving her new home, she loves the people, the food and her room. She has settled in nicely and we have got the services organized so she has someone coming in and out all the time.

    You will have to publish your blog when you get home, it's a blast to read it.

    Take care and be same

    Love Nancy
