But just cannot get my wife to agree to go again. Two reasons, she gets a little (a lot) panicky, where I just love it but thats her, so is not worth the aggravation. Second reason is we can stay for the same period of time in Arizona on BLM land and membership parks saving the extra cost of vehicle insurance, permits, tolls and fuel.<br />I envy you and guess I will have to enjoy Mexico thru your eyes. <br />Florida eh, been there done that, not for us yet, maybe when we get too old to go further, never know.<br />Keep up the good work!our awesome travelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13031755671050584629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-64089746664606562252012-12-05T12:43:41.117-05:002012-12-05T12:43:41.117-05:00No, I don't think that's the case Diugo.
