You guessed it, circumstances have developed that make the next few days… good days… to go on a little road trip. As you know we left some gear in Lucy, parked in Yuma, to be picked up on a second trip. This gear is pretty much all for the boat and there just wasn’t enough room to stuff it all into Chuck. Add to that… tropical storm Simon (about to become a hurricane) whose path is projected to cross the Baja about half way up, heading east, and cross over top of Guaymas/San Carlos. Not good; back to back storms for the Baja…. not fair. By the time it gets to here (if it comes here at all) the storm will be more about wind and rain and it won’t be anywhere near hurricane or even storm force. It will just be, well, windy and wet; which is not good for working on boats, and not good for driving on highways. You’ve probably already figured out where this dialogue is headed.
Yup, we’re going to get out of Dodge before the rains hit the roads… we need to go to Yuma anyway…it’s a good time to get it over with. We’ll leave tomorrow and be back here as soon as we can and after any ill effects from Simon have passed by; likely by next Thursday or Friday.
Now some of you might think this is just a sneaky way to get to visit Esplendor Resort again and I’d have to admit we’ll be staying there… oh darn :-) Maybe this time we’ll figure out how to use the pool… maybe hide Miss Sophie under a large sombrero or something… :-) or dress her up like a cactus and make her sit and stay.
Anyway, just wanted to let you know our plans… in case you’re following the weather ‘n all.
Take good care of you and yours… adios for now.
CJ and Kathy
