The motorhome is parked at Thousand Trails RV Resort in La Conner, Washington. I’ll depart here later this morning.

 

 

 

Today… A trip down memory lane!

 

 

 

2004 Central America trip…

This trip ended up being 343 days and 16,000+ miles through the back-country of Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama. 11 rigs started the trip, within a week we broke into three smaller groups for ease of traveling. Only myself and one other rig went the full, pre-planned route. All the others dropped out for various reasons. All returned safely to the United States. I’m planning to show these photos, more or less, 10 a day, whenever I’m not doing something else deserving a blog entry. FINALLY, it must be remembered these photos are prior to my switching to digital in 2006. The films were developed during our trip and the lack of quality control sometimes is plainly evident.

 

Today…Mexico (north-bound) #5…

 

 

 

 

 

We have moved on to Chiapa De Corzo, population about 60,000 and an elevation of about 1,500 feet, which means we are back in the heat and humidity…

Music is everywhere in Mexico…

 

 

 

 

Bud and I took a boat day-trip into Sumidero Canyon…

 

 

 

 

The trip was 20 miles and one-hour, one way…

 

 

 

We were the first boat trip of the day and the morning clouds still clung to the mountain tops…

 

 

 

In some places the river was only about 300 feet wide…

 

 

 

While the sides of rose to over 3,000 feet…

 

 

 

Legend has it that the Indian warriors, unable to endure the Spanish conquest, hurled themselves into the canyon rather than submit…

 

 

 

A nice waterfall…

 

 

 

Looking straight up into the waterfall…

 

 

 

At an eddy in the river…garbage collected…

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

Enjoying 65-75 degree temperatures with low humidity most of the year is a primary joy in the RVing lifestyle!

Previews Of Coming Attractions… #1

Back on May 26th of this year, I published a blog indicating that RVing life was changing… and not for the good.

In closing that blog entry, I indicated “And with these changes, I see more changes coming in to my personal RVing life. I’ll be providing more information in future blogs. Till then…”

 

If you care to re-visit that blog entry, click this link…

https://otrwjam.wordpress.com/2019/05/26/the-rving-life-is-changing/

The time has finally come to speak of some of the things that are changing.

 

If you are a long-time follower of my blogs, you know that my norm since Mary stopped traveling with me in 2014 has been to winter in the desert southwest and summer in the northwest. I usually depart the State of Washington around October 1st… typically when the rainy season begins.

 

My current schedule date to depart Washington this year is September 21st. Hmmmm… wonder what’s up? My norm is also to arrive in Palm Desert, California in very early December. My current scheduled arrival date this year in southern California (not Palm Desert) is October 14th. Hmmmm… that’s really different. Wonder what’s up?

 

Well, all I’m going to say at this time is that something is different this year. Rather than disclose what’s going on, I’ll simply say… it should prove to be really interesting.  🙂

 

I’ve decided to let the suspense build by withholding any further info at this point. More info will be coming in the near future…  🙂

 

Okay… here’s a couple of clues. Google Earth is telling me it’s 1,389 miles to my mystery destination location. According to my weather info it was 112 degrees yesterday. More clues soon.  🙂

 

Today I’ll leave you with a photo identifying my current location where it was 72 degrees yesterday.

Today…Guatemala (north-bound) #14…

 

 

 

 

 

The motorhomes are parked in Quetzaltenango aka Xela. During a day trip with the Bronco after visiting with Maximon ( see previous post), we drove to the Indian village of Cantel, we we visited the Copavic Glass Factory. We watched the workers making all kinds of glass objects from recycled glass aka broken bottles. The piles of broken glass stock can be seen in the first photo below…

Unfortunately, this is an all too common sight in Central America. It’s not hard to understand why someone would resort to drunkenness, with a high percent of unemployment and a very large percent of the population(s) living in adjunct poverty with little hope for life to improve…

 

 

Next…back into Mexico…

Today… A trip down memory lane!

 

 

 

2004 Central America trip…

This trip ended up being 343 days and 16,000+ miles through the back-country of Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama. 11 rigs started the trip, within a week we broke into three smaller groups for ease of traveling.

FINALLY, it must be remembered these photos are prior to my switching to digital in 2006. The films were developed during our trip and the lack of quality control sometimes is plainly evident.

 

Today…Guatemala (north-bound) #13…

 

 

 

 

 

The motorhomes are parked in Panajchel along the shore of Lake Atitlan, which author Alex Huxley called “the most beautiful lake in the world.” We paid $6.25 a day to park here on the lakeshore and spent seven days at this beautiful place…

 

You can read all about Lake Atitlan, by clicking this link…https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Atitl%C3%A1n

 

 

 

 

 

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…

 

 

 

 

 

 

The below Google earth image shows Lake Atitlan, about 20 miles long and 10 miles wide. X marks our parking location…

 

 

Leaving Panajchel was quite the experience. The 11 mile road was so steep up, I knew the motorhome could not tow the Bronco up that grade. So instead, I hired Brett to drive the Bronco and follow behind me in the motorhome. He is from Australia had lived in Panajchel for seven years and was a regular patron at Becky’s Bar. He caught the chicken bus back to town. At the top of the horrendous grade, after hooking up the Bronco, up and up we went, and along the way crossed the highest point on the Inter-American Highway at an elevation of more than 12,000 feet! We were “in the clouds” for about an hour with a heavy mist in the air. What beautiful country! We drove on to Quetzaltenango, also know as Xela, the second largest city in Guatemala with a population of about 118,000 and at an elevation of 7,700 feet…

 

 

Another gaily painted bus…

 

 

Most Guatemala street markets are at ground level…

 

 

An unusually shaped church…

 

 

Bud and I took the Bronco to the Indian village of Zunil, at the bottom of a valley surrounded by very steep-sided mountains. It’s really incredible that they can live and farm on such steep slopes. The village is famous for its well-dressed idol…

 

 

According to our guidebook, “San Simon, aka Maximon, is worshiped in the town and is often dressed in different clothes at different times. For example, he might be wearing ski wear: hat, scarf, gloves and sun glasses or a black suit and a wide-brimmed hat, complete with cigar. He is moved from time to time to different houses. Here, at Zunil, he has firewater poured down his throat causing him to ‘pee’ in a basin below. Inquire locally for present location. A small charge is made for upkeep.”

As we asked for directions, everyone knew exactly where he was, and we finally found him in a small cement block building on a dirt alley. There he was, sitting in a small throne-like chair, and dressed in a black suit, looking like one of The Blues Brothers! Has he been standing instead of sitting, he would be about five feet tall. We were required to pay a $0.60 “entrance fee”, and then I was allowed to take two photos at $1.25 apiece! At first I thought this was a “tourist gimmick”, but while I was there I met a gal who was born nearby and now lives in Los Angeles. She was visiting her family on a one-week vacation. She assured me that this is the “real thing and people come from all over Guatemala, seeking Maximon’s blessings to grant their wishes.“…

 

 

There were about 100 candles burning near his feet, and while I was there a number of Indians came to pray for his favor. I was impressed by how sincere the people were, while praying, either kneeling on a dirt floor or standing alongside him with their arms over his shoulders talking to him like he was real, instead of a dummy dressed in a black suit…

 

 

Maximon replicas were available in a small gift shop. I didn’t buy one…

 

 

Outside of the building, his believers had a number of smoky fires going, which are supposed to remove all the “bad things” in your body and life…

 

 

It was a most interesting spectacle to behold! I wouldn’t want this guy’s job…
