We have done nothing but drive (or so it seems) for the last 3 days! We left Creel and drove to Cuauhtemoc on Sunday, where we had our end-of-trail dinner at a Mennonite steak house. We were on the road at 7 AM Monday for the long drive to the border and then an even longer wait in line at the Mexican and American customs. Security has tightened on both sides so we were boarded and inspected by Mexicans and Americans. We got into Los Cruces around 7 PM.
We were up early Tuesday morning and after fond fair wells to our fellow caravaners, we took off for Austin, Texas. This part of Texas is very dry and desolate, a lot like what we saw in Mexico yesterday. I helped John with the driving and we pulled into a KOA campground in Junction around 7 PM. Only three hours to get to the campground next to the Hyatt resort west of Austin.
Today is our grandson's 1st birthday! We sure wish we could be there but he'll have to wait a few more days to see us. I can't wait!!
