Description

I own no land, instead I have wheelestate. I’ve been a full time RVer since 1997. Working summers as a Park Ranger takes me to many beautiful places and playing during the winter takes me to many more. This blog is simply the story of my life's adventures.

Moved

Thank you for stopping by. Just to let you know, I'm still blogging but have moved to Geogypsytraveler. Hope you'll follow my adventures. Just click here.

Sky Watch Friday - Salton Sea Sunrise

The Salton Sea is located in southeastern California at 227 feet below sea level. This unique saline land-locked body of water is a critical part of the Pacific Flyway attracting hundreds of species of birds to its wetland habitat.

I camped along the Sea back in winter of 1996 while on a major road trip which you can read more about in next week’s My World Tuesday.

For more views of the skies around the world check out SkyWatch, and feel free to share.

Survived Mexico

Border crossing into Algodones Mexico

Arrived in Algodones early and walked about. Everything is so colorful and ornate.

Courtyard to hang out in

Dentist removed stitches and ground the lower dentures which brought immediate relief. Done in 30 minutes and now I shouldn’t have to go back for at least 5-6 months for possible realignment.

One of many carved benches in the courtyard

Went to lunch and tried to chew a chili rellenos. Not. Back to beans and rice.

Outside dinning

Got in line to cross the border and it took longer to leave Mexico than to visit the dentist.

The line to leave was over two blocks long

It will be a while before I’m chewing a good steak. So tonight I’m going to try spaghetti.

Once more to Mexico

Today the stitches come out and hopefully the pain goes away. I’d really like to start eating solid food again.

Hail - Stormy Sunday

Two hours later, temperature down to 40F, and it's hailing. That's the desert for you.

Stormy Sunday

Sunrise this morning

I’ve enjoyed such fantastic T-shirt weather this fall. Yet today, the temperature has dropped almost 10° in the last three hours, wind blows, clouds continue to roll over with thunder booming in the distance. No rain, yet. The sun persistently tries to break through.Carson is hiding on the bed as is his custom when the thunder roars.

2:30pm this afternoon

The birds are almost running each other over in a feeding frenzy. Maybe they know what’s coming.
