Another Week - Another Address

Actually, it should say another week - several addresses.  Our week started by going to a huge Flea Market in Brownsville.  The day was cloudy and threatening rain so it was a great day to go and wander around and look at the many bargains that could be available seeing that most of the vendors were under a roof.  It turned out that there were many duplicates but we did manage to find some bargains that we had to have!

Easy to make a lot of miles - pedal to the medal

Then it is Monday morning and time to hit the road.  Since the day was cloudy, drizzly, and some fog, we decided to alter our plans.  Originally we were planning on going down to Big Bend National Park but because of the weather, plans were changed and on to Yuma we were headed.  We had almost 2200 kms to travel but the roads were great and soon the weather cleared and we were just a-motoring.  Diesel has really dropped in price so travelling is becoming fairly reasonable - a great offset to the decline in the value of our dollar.

As we often do when travelling straight through, the

nights are often spent at Wal-marts where every spot is a pull-through - great asset when towing a vehicle.  So in Del-Rio we listened to Christmas carols all night long.  I did say they were convenient, not necessarily real quiet.  We did arrive in Yuma Friday evening so now it will be time to relax, visit, and enjoy Arizona.
Since all week was spent on the road, their isn't a lot to say.  Our touring consisted of following that yellow line down the road.  I am often amazed at the designs that are on many of the overpasses - some are really quite colourful so I have included a couple that were particularly attractive.

As everyone prepares for the holiday season, I hope you have a great week!
