I Walk Into Mexico…

Mary is no longer available for RV traveling, but we remain good friends.
Because we have 5,000+ postings, I’ve invited her to continue posting entries on this blog.

I’m currently in my 23rd year of full-time RVing and my lifestyle is changing, For more info click Here

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-

The motorhome is parked at Shady Acres RV Park in Yuma, Arizona.

 

I expect to be in this area a couple of months hiding out from the cold, wet weather. Average temperatures in January are high 69.6, low 47.6. In February, high 73.8, low 50.1. As nice as Yuma is, I wouldn’t want to be here in August.  🙂

 

Two days ago, I drove the Bronco the 25 miles south of Yuma, Arizona to San Luis Rio Colorado, Sonora, Mexico for my annual visit with my dentist. I’ve been going to Dr. Sergio Bernal since 2006. I leave early so I can be first in line which means no waiting when he opens at 9:00 AM. The sun does not break the horizon until 7:40 AM which means difficult photo conditions with the sun so low on the horizon. (The below photos are from last years trip.)

Right at the border on the Arizona side, last year I parked the Bronco in a city park. This year it’s all changed. The park is now closed to vehicles and now San Luis has street parking meters…

 

 

 

 

 

Then walk across the border crossing. No cameras allowed beyond this point…

 

 

 

 

 

Once into Mexico, it’s only about a one minute walk…

 

 

 

 

 

Turn left and here’s his office…

 

 

 

 

 

Sergio has a nice two chair facility where he provides very good services (he’s a dental surgeon) at very good prices compared to the United States. A checkup and cleaning is only $20. Such a deal! Here he is with his dental assistant…

 

 

 

 

About a one minute walk back to the border crossing to re-enter the United States (last year) took about a 10 minute wait in line. This year no one in line, no waiting to cross the border…

 

 

 

 

Even with six lanes in progress, entering the United States by vehicle is about a two-hour wait in a very long line. The car line this year still looked very long…

 

 

 

I’m all set dental-wise (hopefully) for another year. Sergio told me that for an old guy, I’ve still got really good teeth!  🙂

 

 

 

 

I hope you enjoyed the photos.

Forecast for today is partly sunny and 70 degrees.

Enjoying nice weather is another joy in the life of a full-time RVer!

Roma, Texas Day 3 (GA341)

Mary is no longer available for RV traveling, but we remain good friends.
Because we have 5,000+ postings, I’ve invited her to continue posting entries on this blog.

I’m currently in my 23rd year of full-time RVing and my lifestyle is changing, For more info click Here

---

The motorhome is parked at Thousand Trails Lake Minden RV Resort in Nicolaus, California. I’m scheduled to depart May 11th.

 

 

 

Since my RVing life is changing (see above), I’m starting to re-visit previously visited places. So rather than constantly re-blogging past entries, I’ve decided to do something different.

 

 

In 2011-2013, Mary and I did a 682 day, 12,679 miles in the motorhome and 8,000 miles in the Bronco, circumnavigation of the United States, which I called The Great Adventure. I called it so because other than my oldest granddaughter’s high school graduation in June in Connecticut, I didn’t know where we would be going or when we would be there!

 

 

So, unless I do something really different and unusual warranting a new blog entry, I’ll be posting entries from that trip.

 

 

 

This entry was posted December 19, 2012

 

 

 

Mary remains at home in California tending to medical and personal business issues. She has made her airline reservations to join me at Harlingen, Texas on January 3, 2013.

 

 

The motorhome is parked at VFW Post #9175 in Roma, Texas. I expected to depart yesterday but the windshield glass chip repair service said the repair man couldn’t make it until yesterday. Now I’m expecting to depart here tomorrow.

 

 

Yesterday the first event of the day was the windshield rock chip repairman showing up to accomplish the job…

In yesterday’s Blog entry I discussed meeting my new friend Horatio. He introduced me to his dentist Dr. Alma Lidia Cantu de Graza. She lives in Roma, but her office is across the border in Ciudad Miguel Aleman, Tamaulipas, Mexico, population about 27,000. She met me in a nearby parking lot in Roma and we crossed the bridge over the Rio Grande. Pick-up trucks pay $3 for a one way passage. Pedestrians pay $.25 to walk across the bridge…

 

 

 

 

 

The Rio Grande River looking west-northwest as seen from the bridge…

 

 

 

 

 

And into the city…

 

 

 

 

 

Her office is about one mile from the bridge and looks more like a house on the outside rather than an office…

 

 

 

 

 

It has a large waiting area…

 

 

 

 

 

With three dental rooms…

 

 

 

 

 

She cleaned my teeth and repaired a damaged tooth. Here’s a banner for her services…

 

 

 

 

 

I shot this next photo through the glass window in her front door looking towards the outside…

 

 

 

 

 

She had one other patient which took about an hour. Then she went with me to the pharmacy and help me buy my sinus medication for which she had to write a prescription. The 40 tablets I purchased cost me $22.40…in the United States they would cost $275.00! Then we went to a small local eatery for lunch and then back to the bridge to return to the United States…

 

 

 

 

 

The Rio Grande River looking east-southeast…

 

 

 

 

 

I have crossed back into the United States from Mexico many times over the years. I have never seen tighter security than yesterday. You can read of drug-related shootings in 2011 in Miguel Aleman by clicking this link…

Fortunately we had no problems yesterday in Miguel Aleman.

 

 

Enjoying getting dental work done and buying medications in Mexico is another joy of the full-time RVing lifestyle!

Final bill for an examination, cleaning and two fillings was $100. Try that in the United States! It’s why I go to Mexico like many RVers for dental care.

 

 

 

 

 

About a one minute walk back to the border crossing to re-enter the United States took about a 10 minute wait in line…

Los Algodones, Sonora, Mexico…

Mary is no longer available for RV traveling, but we remain good friends.
Because we have 4,000+ postings, I’ve invited her to continue posting entries on this blog.

---

The motorhome is parked at Shady Acres Mobile Home and RV Park in Yuma, Arizona. I expect to be here a while hiding out from the cold, wet weather. Average temperatures in January are high 69.6, low 47.6. In February, high 73.8, low 50.1. As nice as Yuma is, I wouldn’t want to be here in August.  🙂

Los Algodones, Sonora, Mexico is only a few miles drive from Yuma, Arizona and every day during the winter season, thousands of snowbirds go there.

Back in 2012, Mary and I walked across the border into Los Algodones, Sonora, Mexico. Why did we do that…you ask? So Mary could visit her dentist.

It’s reputed that within a four block radius there are more pharmacies, doctors, dentists and opticians here, than a similar four block area anywhere else in the world! Daily thousands of American and Canadian Snowbirds visit Los Algodones. I’ve been here a number of times…Mary first went there with me in 2009.

It can take as long as 2-3 hours later in the day to wait in line to cross back into the United States. The secret is to go early…get your business done…leave early. I abandoned Los Algodones dentists a number of years ago. My dentist is now in San Luis Rio Colorado, Sonora, Mexico…about 20 miles south of Yuma, Arizona. I visited him about two weeks ago.

Here are some photos I took while in Los Algodones…

As always you may left click upon an image to see an enlarged view and then click once again to see an even larger view…

 

 

 

Walking towards the border crossing…

 

 

If you bring guns or ammunition into Mexico…you may never be seen again…

 

 

Immediately after crossing into Los Algodones…

 

 

 

 

 

There are LOTS of signs like these all over Los Agodones…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here’s photo of Mary in 2009 standing in front of her then dentist’s office…

 

 

Thanks to Mary and her oldest son Ken, her dentist now has a nice, new office…

 

 

Right next door to her dentist’s office is Maria’s Factory…

 

 

A pretty painted restaurant…

 

 

With a nice courtyard…

 

 

A typical street scene…

 

 

In a small central plaza…

 

 

Trinkets of all sorts can be found…

 

 

You can also watch artistic painters working with spray cans painting pretty scenes on satellite dishes…

 

 

We stopped at our favorite eating place. You can see Mary in the background…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You cannot beat the house policy…

 

 

After you are done eating you can step in the back to wash your hands…

 

 

Lots of places to buy booze…

 

 

 

Lots of pharmacies…

 

 

Another typical street scene…

 

 

And then you get in line to return to the United States. It wasn’t too bad…only about a twenty-minute wait…

 

 

 

Recently I’ve been running blogs about my 2004 Central America trip. While here I’m intending to continue those postings while also alternating with Yuma area blogs.

I hope you enjoyed the photos.

 Yesterday was partly sunny and 61 degrees. Forecast for today is partly sunny and 62 degrees.

We Visit A Unique Place In The World…

The motorhome is now parked at the Paradise Casino in Winterhaven, California. Less than 1/2 mile away is the Colorado River and on the other side…the sunniest place on Earth…Yuma, Arizona. I’m here hanging out and enjoying the nice weather. I have several friends in the area. Mary is now expecting to rejoin me here in later January.

I’ve been coming to this Yuma, Arizona area coming on to 20 years and have thoroughly explored the area. Rather than go back to these various places and re-create the wheel, (unless I do something different and unusual) I’m electing to republish some of my earlier blog entries while I await Mary’s arrival.

Here’s a reprint of the blog entry from January 31, 2014…

We Visit A Unique Place In The World…

Yesterday we drove the Bronco seven miles to the border and walked into Los Algodones, Mexico. What makes this a unique place?…you ask. it’s because within a four block radius there are more pharmacies, doctors, dentists and opticians than a similar four block area anywhere else in the world!

To read about today’s location, click this link… http://gosw.about.com/od/southwestmiscellaneous/a/Algodones.htm

The primary reason for our visit was that I could get two pair of prescription eyeglasses…one for reading and one for driving at about 1/3 of the price in the United States.

Here’s a view of the border crossing as seen from the walkway of our parking lot. The tall building is our destination…

A sign inside Mexico…

I have been here a number of times…Mary’s second.  One of the many fun things about Algodones is the “pitchmen”. Immediately passing through the gate into Mexico, several…all about the same time start shouting…“Looking for dentist, optical, Pharmacy? Over here for the best price. Cheaper than K-Mart!”

We proceeded to the street level of a newly…currently being built…plaza at the recommendation of a couple of friends of mine…

To Algodones Optical. Not some small dusty little store you might expect to find in Mexico…

The doctor told me I have a large cataract in my right eye which I should attend to within the next year. We picked up my new glasses three hours later. I got the two pair with ultra-light ply carbon lens and a 30 minute eye exam for $199.00 U.S. Dollars. Would have been about triple that figure in the United States.

While the glasses were being made, Mary visited her dentist office…

We wandered through some of the many tourist shops and finally ended up at our favorite eating place in Algodones. You won’t see a sign like this in any United States restaurant!…

At 10:00 o’clock in the morning we both had a Tecate Beer with our meals. Mary had the shrimp and fish tacos while I had the 1/2 chicken. As usual…wonderfully delicious!…

After picking up my glasses we crossed back into the United States.

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THE PHOTOS.

End of blog reprint…

Yesterday was a sunny day at 60 degrees.  Forecast for today is sunny and 65 degrees.
