Slept in late this morning, AGAIN! Yuma had me up a couple times last night and I did my Wordle for the day before going back to sleep.
A week or so ago, Yuma met a new friend in a motorhome near us and I went over to get him before he got in trouble. Turned out to be a young couple working on the road from Ontario, Canada. This is their first road trip south of the border.
Haven't gotten a tow vehicle yet, so yesterday, I asked them to join me on my quick trip back to Los Algodones, Mexico. I wanted to stop into the place I bought my glasses to have them tightened.
We left a little after 10 o'clock and quickly stopped at the glasses shop and then next door for brunch..jpeg)
Eric and Susan
They both bought authentic Mexican lunches and I stuck with the BLT, fries and a coke. We had a one man band playing American classics and Mexican music.
After brunch, we walked around the main vendor streets and looked at what they had to offer.

We got back to camp at 2:30 and soon after, Yuma and I were over at Tom's place for happy hour. Today was a little overcast and cooler than normal, so called it a night early.
This evening, Yuma and I had nice dinners and I'm now watching the Thursday Night Football and working on my post for the evening. Had an enjoyable and relaxing day.
Thanks for stopping by.

It sounds like a relaxing day in the Southwest and Mexico. What are your new friends' names?
ReplyDeleteEric and Susan. We had a good time.
DeleteThat yellow building with the iron fence is the dentist Deb & Tom, as well as Bill and Patsy go to see. The music man is a different one than has been playing when we have been there. Glad everything went well, and you all enjoyed yourselves. I’m sure both dogs, Kevin and Yuma were happy to see you folks make it back.

Very pretty building. Love those colors. They are now pros at the Mexican thing and I'm sure they will be going back. The doggies missed us.
DeleteBest thing about Mexico (besides the good prices) is the food and the colors.
ReplyDeleteAnd I like to sit down and watch the people go by.
DeleteLike you, I would have stuck with the BLT and fries too. I wonder if the Ontario couple mentioned which part of Ontario they are from.
ReplyDeleteDolly loves Mexican food but I never had a taste for it. Yes Eric and Susan are from a suburb of Toronto. Can't remember the name.
DeleteThat was so nice of you. I'm pretty sure they enjoyed Mexico. The food on the young man's plate looks really good.
ReplyDeleteYes, they did enjoy their first taste of Mexico. I'm sure they will be going back again.
DeleteWe had an amazing time! We’re both so thankful for the generosity of Doug showing us the ropes ☺️
ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome. Ever need help just let me know. Enjoy your first boondocking winter.
ReplyDeleteEric and Susan have very nice smiles! Glad you were able to show them Mexico. Your sandwich looks yummy, but I love Mexican! All that's missing is a margarita!
ReplyDeleteGetting to be old hat crossing the border.
