ITS GO TIME - Parksville, BC to Yakima, WA

 

ITS GO TIME!

 

So, after trying to get to bed early to bed some rest, I forgot I hadn’t printed my manifest for the Mexican border and had to run back in the house to do so.  Of course, it did not print out on one page so I would have to piece it together later.  And of course, Lorie finally returned and wanted to talk, but I said no, Bedtime, 3AM is friggin early.  So off to bed we went and got what sleep we could.  In woke up before my alarm.  It always happens when you know you need to get up and spend half the night worrying about it.

I am up and out the door putting the last things into place and trying to find 1 specific box to get tape and scissors for the manifest to no avail.  I come back in and Lorie is surfacing wondering who is breaking into the trailer.  Needless to say, she had not had enough sleep to get rid of the drinks she had the night before and with lack of sleep, she was slightly confused at that hour.

We got everything in, added the dog into her nest in the back seat and we were off.  I had booked reservations for the 5AM ferry and you have to be there minimum of 30 minutes before to keep your reservation.  No problem, I took my time and got the feel of the fully loaded trailer and arrived before they even opened the booths.  We had a grumpy employee, measure the length of the vehicles and when I asked how well I guessed, she just grumped at me that she doesn’t know what I guessed, so I clearly had to rephrase it and ask what the actual length was and she finally told me.



We boarded and went up to have some breakfast, as Lorie gets hangry, often and I have a tendency not to stop besides for gas and dog breaks.  It was far to early for me to eat but I struggled down half and brought the rest down to Kahlua.  I then worked on my manifest, creating an arts and crafts project out of it and putting two sheets together to make one page.  We then went down and fed Kahlua her snacks and took her for a walk to the dog area onboard as there was a ferry employee watching to make sure we didn’t stay below deck.  He even came and turned the heat on for us in there.

Before we knew it, we were docking and it was time to hit the road.  How literal that saying would become was not known until later in the day.  We made record time to the boarder and were a little unsure which lane we should take, so I followed the one for RV’s or campers.  I pulled up and handed him my NEXUS card first, then my passport and Lories passport.  He came out to write down and check the license plates and I told him the bike was inside and gave him the plate number as well.  I told him where we were heading and offered my resident card.  I told him that everything was all of my belongings that I was taking with me.  He had a quick peak in the back window, asked about fruits etc, that you can’t take across.  I thanked him for reminding me and told him a few of the snacks that I did have and he okayed all of it.  He gave me an orange card that released me to hand to the guard on the way out and that was it.  No probing questions, no search of the vehicles.  Badda bing, badda bang, we waltzed through customs.  I so love my NEXUS card!

And away we went.  I pulled over just outside the crossing and quickly sent a couple messages, and then of course Mother called to check on me.  We got back on the road while she babbled away and said to message tonight when we stop.  Little did she know she would hear from me sooner than anticipated.

There was major construction and slow down heading into Issaquah but we got there and stopped for gas and a dog break before climbing the pass.  I was a little concern as temps were low and it was quite grey overhead but luck prevailed and there was no snow this trip.  We were still undecided if we would stop in Yakima or carry on a bit further, until.

About 5 kms from Ellensburg, I was passing a slow truck and felt a wobble.  And now I really hit the road!  I looked in my mirror to see something flying, then at the tire which was ground up but still hanging on.  I hit the hazards and checked mirrors, but everyone had backed off and left it clear for me to get to the shoulder.  Thankfully there was a shoulder there and I managed to slow down and get over without a problem.  I was a little shaky but found a number for a tow company that could come out and change the tire for me.  I sent a couple quick messages while I was waiting.  Thankfully I also had cell service.  The fellow arrived quickly to help me out and gave a suggestion to get new tires locally, that could get me in and on my way.  He was super great and when I took the wrong exit, he was following and called me to tell me how to get to the tire shop.  We stopped there and no wait, they were able to fix up the trailer and put the spare back on the roof of the Jeep and we were good to go.  All in from blowout to on the road again, was about 2 hours.



So, we carried on but had decided that this was enough excitement for the day and that we would stop in Yakima.  Give me time to blog and post, get some dinner and get a good night’s rest.  Then we can go for it again tomorrow.  We are in the same hotel that I stayed in last year.  Lorie is curled up on her bed reading, Kahlua is having a nap on the bed with me and Im getting this done, before she gets hangry.

So, if I replay last years route, we may end up outside of Salt Lake City tomorrow night or who knows maybe we will pass thru and go to Provo.  We will see what the road brings us tomorrow.  I will continue to post and share locations so you can follow me travels.  See you at the beach!!

Hasta luego

LOST IN MEXICO RESUMES

 

Well, here we go again, the countdown is officially almost over and its time to pull up roots again.  This time for good.  Most of you knew about my vision to runaway to Mexico well its coming true with an added extra bonus.  But more on that later.

So, it has been a very insane, chaotic summer for me.  The idea has been in the back of my brain ever since I returned home in May but I would say it kicked into high gear in July.  I pretty much hid inside during May and June as I found it so damn cold here and I wasn’t acclimatized to the temperature.  Thankfully late June it started to warm up and I was able to putter around my yard somewhat.  Due to falling in my hallway and just about breaking my ankle, I wasn’t moving to fast or far so the weather was a bit of a blessing being locked inside.  While recovering from the fall, I also ended up with a vicious head and sinus cold that took me out for a couple weeks.  Then at the beginning of July, I ended up in hospital for emergency gallbladder removal surgery.  I swear Canada is trying to kill me!!

I made a quick trip back to Mexico for my birthday and that is when everything changed and the plan kicked into high gear.  To say I really haven’t had a day of rest since then would be an understatement.

I was working on a partnership deal at a bar/restaurant there but I started having second thoughts on the partner.  Between rumours coming back to me about him being a bit of a snake oil salesman and my own questions with his lack of transparency.  Then just before my surgery, he asked if I knew anyone that would want to invest and partner with me and buy him out.  Needless to say, my mind started spinning on who might be interested and how I could get him out totally.  But before I could do anything, I ended up in the hospital.  A week after I was discharged, I was on a plane heading down there to surprise everyone, including him.  So, when I arrived and found out that someone had called him to tell him they had seen me on my way into town, I knew he was not being forthright with information, so I decided at that moment, that I was going to buy him out and take the bar over on my own.  If someone wants to buy in and partner with me later, great, but I was not going to worry about it now. Hint Hint, the option is on the table if you are interested.  LOL.



So, I had papers drawn up and bought him out and sent him running for the Sierra Madres, well at least as far as Merida.  I worked on getting a team together to renovate the bar while I was back in the frozen north.  My team has been doing an amazing job at recreating my vision.  It is quite a large building with interior and exterior spaces.  There is a large palapa, that I had built on the terrace.  It has a stage for live entertainment outside, a games room for darts and pool, a huge kitchen area and then additional office, bedroom and storage space.

I tend to spend half my day on video and phone calls with my GM, (maybe future boyfriend) and ordering things that we need for the renos.  Then I have to get to work on things here for myself to organise, pack, create a manifest for customs, contact and hire a customs broker, buy a cargo trailer, load my bike and build shelves around it, have the Jeep in for maintenance, oh and still find time to breathe and sleep.  My head is spinning from all the things I need to complete.

So, as I pack things, I have to create a complete list of every item in the bin in both Spanish and English with garage sale prices attached.  If it is an electronic item, I need to list the serial number as well.  This process is driving me stir crazy and I already have 200 itemized lines of things and more to add.  But the process will make it much easier to get thru both borders.  Almost everything is packed up and I just need to reorganise the trailer with the bins around the bike and decide what is going in the back of the jeep.  Of course, the last of the kitchen stuff still needs to be packed but that will be on Wednesday.  So, a bit of organising and clearing out the last of the stuff stacked at the front of the Moho and then I can just sit and deal with the last things I need to do for the importation.

Lorie came up to help with the last of the loading before it was time to leave and we got everything loaded and ready to roll down to Parksville for the night.  Of course, in my chaotic state, I forgot a few steps on the motorhome and was getting frustrated that the slide wouldn’t go in.  I took a breath and realized I can’t have the engine running.  I turned it off and all was fine and we were on the move.  I finished the last of things at Lens and tried to have an early night, as we were leaving at 330AM to head for the boat.

So, starting right after this will be the daily blog posts while on route.  Keep your eyes out for my nightly posts.  We are planning on being in Laredo by Sunday.  Spend a day or 2 while the broker nationalizes things and then we will be on our way again with arrival by October 4th.

Hasta luego Canada,  I’m out.

Lost in Mexico - Last edition....until the next journey!!

 Baker City, Oregon to Vancouver and Qualicum Beach BC

So this is the last edition of the trip, I'm going to combine the 2 days togeather as the trip up island isn't that exciting.  So, I didn't rush to leave as it was a relatively short trip besides the question of possible snow in the pass.  It was damn cold in the morning up in the mountains but I got us organized and found a sunny spot to stand in while Kahlua did her thing and then we hit the road.  I got to drive through the rest  of this quaint little town and would love to check it out more on another trip.

Yet again the google maps route decided to send me on all kinds of back country roads to get to Yakima and I was starting to wonder where the hell I was going.  But as in the past it may have steered me wrong but I still got to where I intended and got to see more of the country.  I got to Yakima in no time and stopped for gas and a dog break and then it was time for the home stretch over the pass and thru Seattle traffic.

Away I went and thankfully there was no snow on this trip over the pass and I actually got to see it (instead of in darkness and a snowstorm).  At the summit, it did start to spittle a bit and then turned into a light rain but nothing to worry about.  It is very pretty up there and was actually a lot more to see then I thought.  Of course on the decent, traffic became heavier and I knew that I was getting closer to the city.  Being mid day, I was able to get out of Seattle and head up the I5 without any issues.  As I was driving, Krystal called asking me about medication and if I can get anything stronger down there.  My clumsy daughter decided to drop a 45 pound weight on her big toe and break it in 2 places as well as having a fracture blister on top of her toe that was oozing.  I told her I would stop at a pharmacy and ask but I believe that they are basically the same as us and that I would not be able to even get T1's there as they have also been taken off the shelves in Canada.  So instead of blasting up the interstate to the border, I end up pulling off at Bellingham for gas and the pharmacy.  Sure enough I was correct and I was only able to get her some extra strength acetaminophen for tension headaches.  I have some and they work way better for pain then extra strength tylenol.  I also picked her up some tegaderm with a guaze pad that she could wrap around her toe and protect it as well as let it breathe.  As I finish up, I realize I am just down the road from Hobby Lobby and I just so happen to need to head that way to make a U turn to get back to the highway.  Off I go to spend more money and see how much I can cram into the back of the jeep.  Not to mention possibly get inspected at the border.

Hobby Lobby is like Michael's but waaaayyyy better.  I could get lost in there for days and they have so much stuff beyond basic craft supplies.  Heck, I could have bought a 5 foot flamingo to sit out front of the motorhome and remind me of my trip.  So, I get in there and head for the stuff I'm interested in and end up with a ton of new paper and then into the sublimation supplies and grabbed quite a few things there and then I saw a gold star for selling in Mexico.  They had sublimation blanks of a pickleball racket and cover.  I only bought one set and Im going to search online to see if I can find them in bulk.  Pickleball is big in Progreso and one of the bars even has courts there.  So these would go over big time down there with the enthusiasts.  I definitely want to get more of them to take down and have a few done but also open to custom orders with names or what have you.  I was so excited about these.  I then called Lorie and went to the bead section to see if there was anything that she wanted.  Well I ended up getting her a ton of new stuff while I was at it.  In the end I walked out with 4 bags full and about $360USD lighter.

I stuffed everything in the back of the Jeep, took the dog for another break and got back on the highway.  I was about an hour away from Krystal's house besides the border stop.  I always take the truck crossing over the Peace Arch and I sailed right up with just one car ahead of me.  I flash my card and pull up and a few normal questions later I breezed right through.  Not quite as simple as the way 

down with just and "OK" but just as simple none the less.  Off I went to Surrey to find my daughter.  I called her when I was a few minutes out so she could hobble outside to meet us.  I started asking Kahlua if we were going to find Krystal and where is she.  Kahlua was standing up looking out the windows and when we turned the corner and she spotted her the tail turned into a helicopter rotor and her whole body was wiggling.  She couldn't wait to get out of the car.  When I was parked I asked Krystal if the road was free of traffic (as she was across the street now) and I opened the door and let the hound loose.  She ran across the street and jumped into Krystal's arms, so happy to see her again.

We grabbed the gear and headed into the house, Krystal carrying Kahlua the whole way.  She put her down when we got in the house to meet Luna, Krystal's new English Bulldog (she is a rescue from Mexico that was hit twice in one day by a car and motorcycle and ended up with a broken jaw)  Needless to say the grumpy old girl wanted no part of playing with or being near Luna.  We started with the gifts for the animals.  I got a Mexican collar for El Gato (yes that is his name) and for Luna, a collar with matching leash (that she cant get out of now), a Nike ball cap and a Mexican blanket jacket.  Of course Krystal had to put everything on her and Luna was none too happy about it all.

I had a quick beer, then into the shower and Krystal put all my clothes from the week into the wash for me.  I resorted to pj's but I was content with that.  Krystal opened up all her gifts and tried them on.  She loved the Cuban crochet dress I got in Progreso and the other outfit from Merida that was black embroidered shorts and a matching bandeau style top with sheer sleeves.  That looked amazing on her and she really liked it.  The last was disappointing.  I got her another Catrina doll that is solid black when I was in San Miguel de Allende for Dia des la Muertas.  They had wrapped it up well with some kind of padding and outer plastic wrap and then in a bag.  It was placed safely in the car both ways and lived in my closet for 6 months.  When she opened it, it was broken.  I was so upset, but thanks to Hobby Lobby, I had picked up some amazing craft glue that should hold the clay togeather.  Krystal glued her back togeather and put her up on a shelf with pride.  Marc went out for the evening and Krystal ordered us Sushi for dinner.  I booked my ferry for the next morning, messaged my nieces that I would be there around noon and finished off the beers, I had with me and then pretty much called it a night.  I was done.

It was nice spending time with my girl again.  She sent me a message the next afternoon stating " I really like spending time with you in my big girl house and that you are comfy here too."  Of course I sent her back 100 hearts.

I got ready in the morning and headed to the ferry.  Traffic was pretty good considering it was the morning commute, but I was also going the opposite way.  I made the ferry with time to spare and stayed in the car once boarded and had another nap.  I fought through the traffic in Sidney and headed to Langford to see my other girls and give my niece and griece their dresses.  Matilda was so excited to see "a puppy" but we had to keep reminding her to be quiet and make slow movements as Kahlua is old and grumpy and not use to little people.  Eventually Tilly took the leash from Morgan and was walking her all around the house.  She thought it was the best thing ever.  She looked so cute in the mini Cuban dress and when I gave Taylor hers she loved it and decided she was wearing it that day when she went out with family.  I spent a few hours with them and then got moving again.  I still had to move the motorhome to my summer spot and unpack a few things.

As I got to Duncan, I called the other bestie and told her to get in gear to meet me in Parksville for the move and to drive the Jeep.  All of a sudden she went from down and lonely to OMG, my bestie has returned.  I don't think she did but it wouldn't have surprised me if she drove so fast that she passed me on the highway.  I got a permit for the motorhome and went to meet Lorie and batten it down for transport.  I got everything all ready to go and was about to lift the jacks when they would not turn on.  Ah shit, here we go again.  I checked the manual and it said check fuses.  Well that is easier said then done.  I turned into a pretzel to get under the dash  in front of the drivers seat to get at them.  In the end they were all good, then I realized the battery disconnect button.  So turned that on and tested the outside steps (as that was last years issue) and they worked, so I turned the ignition on again and the lights lit up, jacks retracted and I was ready to rock and roll.

We rolled into the RV park later then planned but I knew my site number and just pulled in and parked.  Got to setting things up for the night so we could both have a drink or 2 and then relax.  The next day we organized, cleaned and put things away.  I picked up some planters of flowers to make things homey.  Lorie stayed for a few days then back home to work for a day before coming back up for the weekend to help with more organizing.

Monday rolled around and I had to attend the FCE testing in Nanaimo for LTD.  After 2 days of exhausting tests the OT came to the conclusion that I am unable to work.  So now I wait to hear back from the insurance company on whether I will be getting early retirement or not.

Well that is the extent of the last couple days home and first few days in my summer home.  Hope things all pan out the way I want things to go and I can say hasta luego to Canada and start my new adventures.

Day 6 Moab to Baker City, Oregon

 


I forgot to included this last night of Kahlua looking at me asking what's for dinner.  Not sure what was up with her ear but it stayed like that for awhile.

We left around 830 this morning to sun and decent temperature.  I love the area around Moab and would like to spend more then overnight there, to explore some of the area.  As I headed to higher elevations it started raining pretty heavy on the way into Provo.  The interstate is 80MPH and heading between Provo and Salt Lake City was hard to see at times.  I slowed down but it sure didn't stop others.  It finally cleared up at the north end of SLC and I was able to pick up speed again.

Well I got my workout in as I was in high plains and the winds were extremely strong and it was like this to west of Boise.  Its great fun controlling a rolling box that's getting slammed with heavy gusts and the same time trying to pass a semi and not slam into it.

I ended up hitting Boise at rush hour so it took awhile to get through town.  Between the traffic and construction.  I stopped for gas and then locked in for the last 100+ miles to Baker City.  It is a great area to drive through, similiar to the foothills heading for Calgary.  I just cruised along at 70 enjoying the view.

I got to Baker City and it is a cute town.  You wouldn't even know it was there as it is down off the side of the highway out of sight.  The motel is right along the side of a river and has a dog play area.  I have been thinking about pizza for a few days and since I arrived early, I asked where I might be able to get one.  She recommended a local restaurant and boy it was hopping for a Monday night.  The pizza was great and of course I have leftovers for tomorrow.

I have about 7 hours to get to the border tomorrow and then will be spending the night with Krystal before heading back to the island.  I've got a bag full of presents for Krystal and her pets.

Well until the next entry,

Day 5 - Fort Stockton, Texas to Moab, Utah

 I woke up around 7ish and decided to just get on the road instead of procrastinating.  Took the dog for a morning walk, got ready and packed the car and hit the road.  Well by 9, I was pulling into Carlsbad, NM and for some reason I thought the time zone had changed as I got there so quickly.  I was wrong, guess I just drove fast.  Oops.  Filled the tank and stopped for a breakfast sandwich for me and the dog.  She happily enjoyed the sausage and cheese bread before going off to sleep again.

I carried on and had a morning convo with my girl on her way to work, she is my entertainment and calls morning and night while Im driving and she is driving to work.  Besides filler conversation she told me about how she broke her big toe in 2 places and needs an air boot and possibly surgery in 3 weeks.

I got to Roswell and again looked around as I drove thru and found the town unremarkable except for the occasional alien statue in front of businesses or space themed names.  I was stopped at a light and there was a UFO Museum that looked like an old movie theatre.

Now my next gas stop was in Vaughn, which was where I stayed on my way down and had the weird red lights and noise that sounded like choppers.  Well in the daylight my next guess was right.  There were train tracks nearby and the lights were from windmills.  Now for some reason the GPS maps decided to change the route on the way back.  When I came along this road it was after going around Albuquerque.  Today it sent me to Santa Fe and the some backroad route to connect back into the highway at Monticello.  I had no idea where I was but was blindly trusting the maps to get mee where I wanded.

I got to Durango and filled up and son of a bitch it was cold.  I was definitely underdressed for 8 degree weather.  I want to know who turned off the heat and the sun, cause at this point it was cold and gray trying to rain.  I left Durango and had to go over a small mountain pass and sure enough it was trying to snow on me.  Shall I say not amused!  The snow stopped but there was small episodes of rain but nothing serious.  I managed to outrun the rain clouds and the sun was out again and I was able to breeze along the last stretch of the trip.  I was getting tired but I said I was going to Moab and be damned if I didn't do it.  I have to remember to save some video files from the dashcam of the scenery coming into town.  It is amazing.  There was one rock formation in the middle of nothing that looked like a giant tit.  I hope the camera got it.

Moab is a super cool little town and is a haven for Jeeps and other 4 wheel vehicles.  I think I passed 20 Jeeps on their way out of town as I was coming in, never mind the ones in town.  And as I said there was a Jeep Jamboree or something when I came thru in October.

All in I travelled about 800 miles or 1300 kilometers today.

Well that's about all of the excitement for today.  I think I may end up in Idaho tomorrow.

Day 5 Monterey to Fort Stockton Texas

 Well as I said, I was going to try and have a leisurely morning but I didn't.  I woke at about 7ish and still felt tired but instead of rolling over, I got up and went and had a super hot, high pressure shower to ease the aches and pains and to wake up.  I have to say it felt fabulous!  Now that I was semi invigorated, I got stuff packed up and ushered the dog and bags downstairs.  I hailed the Jeep from valet while I took Kahlua to do her morning business.  Came back and loaded the car and realized I left my water bottle in the room, so back I went before leaving.

Leaving town was a shit show.  I swear when I checked the map location of the hotel it was right off the highway but just as last night, again I had to drive all through town to get to the highway.  I think I saw every barrio in Monterey.

I finally got on the highway and away we went to the border.  I totally forgot about this on the way down in the blog but remembered this time and got a picture.  I managed to get a picture of one of the signs on Carretera 85D but not the other.

If you can't read the picture it says "Migracion de Mariposa Monarca"  in English, the Monarch Butterfly Migration Route.  The second sign states to slow to 60kms in the presence of the butterflies. I gushed when I saw the signs on the way down and one of these days I do plan to go see them in their natural habitat in Mexico.  Its hard to believe those little wings flapping to fly all that way.

I got to the border and most of my time was wasted on returning my TIP, Temporary Import Permit for the car and getting my refund.  I had to stop at one booth and she checked the papers and the VIN and took photos.  She then gave me new papers to take to the main building for the refund.  I had to go there anyways to get my stamp in my passport for leaving as a resident.  Then I had to stand in line and wait to exchange the paperwork for my refund of $400.  It took a while but got it done.  Took the dog for a quick walk as she was antsy and of course she took a shit in front of a National Guard.  LMAO  We got in the car and got in line to cross the border.  They only had one lane going in that divided to two but it only took maybe 15 minutes.  As I drove up I showed and scanned my Nexus card and when I got to the booth, I gave the agent my card.  She asked, where I was going, roll down the back window and do I have any meat products.  Canada, ok and no and I was on my way! Easy peasy for all you US naysayers.

I headed out and had to backtrack a little towards Laredo to get gas and then I was off.  Once I got onto highway 90 I was boogying at about 140kms.  Not much to see along this stretch of road but it was in better shape then 6 months ago.

As I was driving along, there was a fly that kept buzzing around and landing on the windshield.  Well all of a sudden a spider comes out of nowhere and he is chasing the fly.  This was quite amusing since my copilot doesn't talk to me.  As I was driving I watched this insect dance several times with the spider losing and the fly spending more time on the side window.  Next thing the spider is now on the side window and the chase resumes.  Wouldn't you know but this little spider makes a jump at the fly and catches him and the fly is not bothering me anymore.  So all of you afraid of spiders, leave them the hell alone as they have a job to do and get rid of the real pests!

Anyways, I made it to the destination I had in mind.  I would have liked to have gone further but the delay at the border put a stop to that.  So I will try and do my best to put in a full day tomorrow.  I haven't check the distance yet but I'm thinking about Moab.  We will see what happens.

Until then,

Day 4 Day from Hell Matehuala to Monterey

 Okay, well the day started off great.  I had a relaxing morning getting ready and then went off to the Vet to get the certificate required for the states.  Of course Kahlua wanted no part of being poked at but we got it done.  It took about an hour to get it all done and we were on our way around noon.

Kahlua was happy to be away from the vet and just napped out in the car.  As we pulled out of the hotel a herd of goats all came running down the driveway to eat the grass.  I also saw an old style horse and plow with the man holding the plow as the horse pulled.  As well as a horse and cart going down the street.

The drive started out okay but there was a ton of construction along the way.  We would go for a short distance and then be backed up and then go again to be backed up at the toll booth.  This went on for several hours until finally I hit a dead stop at 3 pm with 10kms to go to my turnoff.  While this turned into a 6.5 hour wait to traverse the 10kms.  Needless to say, I was not amused.

I cancelled my reservation in Texas and booked a new one in Monterey as that would be as far as I could go tonight.  I finally got free from the traffic jam and got on the move but it was dark, unfamiliar roads so I wasn't racing along as fast as normal.  I got into Monterey and missed my exit about 3 times trying to get to the hotel.  Well I have to say it was one of the cheapest deals but its pretty nice.  Im at the Wyndamn with a king size bed and valet parking.

I got checked in, then grabbed my bags and put them in a secure space while I took Kahlua for a walk.  I may just take a little extra time in the morning to shower and relax.

Hope tomorrows better
