The motorhome is parked at Thousand Trails Turtle Beach RV Resort in Manteca, California. I’m scheduled to depart here October 7th.

 

 

 

In the past few months I’ve indicated my 50+ year RVing life is changing. In my humble opinion, just like the world and the United States in general, not for the good.

 

 

 

5 days ago, I published my last blog posting on this topic. In case you missed it, here’s the link…

https://otrwjam.wordpress.com/2019/09/29/15-days-from-today/

 

 

I’ve also indicated that on October 14th, I’m scheduled to arrive at a mystery location. A place my motorhome has never been to before. In addition, many other surprising changes await me there!

 

I’ve been having some fun offering clues about my mystery destination. My location here in Manteca, California has me a mere 505 miles distant, waiting out hopefully lower temperatures.  🙂

 

 

So far the clues have revealed about this mysterious destination…

• It gets really hot there in the summertime.
• It’s in California
• It’s a place of beautiful sunrises
• It’s an oasis… an island in the desert…

 

Here’s today’s really big clue… It’s within the boundaries of Riverside County…

 

 

 

In the meantime here is another photo of a recent sunrise sent to me by a friend…

 

 

 

 

 

 

More clues and other changes coming soon!  🙂

 

 

Now… to a totally different topic…

 

TODAY IS MARY’S 79TH BIRTHDAY!

If you are a regular follower of this blog, you know that I met Mary in 2008 and that she traveled with me part-time for six years… kind of two months on and two months off scenario. We shared many delightful experiences together. Out of the 5,602 postings on this blog site, Mary has published 1,800 of them.

You will also know just last week I finished up a nice four day visit with her at her home in Murphys, California. You will also know that about eight months ago, she was diagnosed with, and since that time has been battling colon cancer.

I’m most pleased to tell you that I found Mary looking surprisingly well. Other than being a little thinner than when we traveled together, to look at her you would never know she is dealing with cancer. She is still quite a sparkling and resilient personality, calling herself a tough old bird! Those of you who have met her will remember her well. She’s definitely a character and not easily forgotten.

Looks aside, battling cancer is mentally fatiguing, but she told me that she’s still hoping to “get a few more years out of this life”.

She may get mad at me for doing this, but I’m going to give you an email address, just in case you might want wish her well. You can send your message to mgmatzek@sbcglobal.net

Here’s a couple of photos…

Her 75th Birthday…

 

 

The latest photo I have of her…

 

HAPPY 79TH BIRTHDAY, MARY! Keep on carrying on, one day at a time, like we all must do!

 

 

 

 

 

I hope you enjoyed the photos.

 

Forecast for today is sunny and 78 degrees.

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) 14…

 

 

 

 

 

The motorhome is in Oaxaca, awaiting a new engine. I had no idea that it would take two months. In the meantime we explore Oaxaca, one of the most beautiful cities in Mexico. In our two months there…we got to know it well…

 

Another day trip in the Bronco, this time to the village of Santa Ana del Valle which had a nice museum…

A day trip in the Bronco to the ruins of Yagul, which was a large Zapotec and Mixtec Indian religious center. The large ball court and tombs were very interesting. Atop a hill overlooking the ruins, we enjoyed a beautiful view of the Oaxaca Valley which is 50 miles long…

The motorhome is parked at Thousand Trails Turtle Beach RV resort in Manteca, California. I’m scheduled to depart here October 7th.

 

 

 

 

Just for the record… I do not purposefully hunt these types of videos. They randomly present themselves as I watch general YouTube videos while eating my breakfast.

 

This is the 17th video which I guess is becoming a series about how politicians are destroying our beautiful country. In this case… politicians in general.

 

The video published several days ago runs 54:54 minutes. I watched the entire thing and really enjoyed it! To me, he still makes real common sense even in our crazy world of today.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How do you feel about this topic????

 

 

 

If you agree with this message, I encourage you to share it with your friends.

 

 

I hope you enjoyed the video.

 

 

 

I hope you will enjoy the future blog postings.

Yesterday I drove the motorhome 65 miles from Murphys to Manteca, California where the motorhome is parked at Thousand Trails Turtle Beach RV Resort. I’m scheduled to depart here October 8th.

 

Today’s Subject…Murphys to Manteca, California…

 

As much as I enjoy being with Mary…it’s time for me to head south and my mysterious destination. I’ll pause here for a few days while I’ll await the temperatures to continue to cool down a bit at that location. That destination is 505 miles distant
