Thinking About Moving On

We got a call from the Honda dealer at about 11:00 telling us the car was ready. We returned the rental and they drove us to AutoNation Honda. I like Enterprise, they have nice vehicles for a reasonable price ($21 per day) and are happy to pick you up and deliver you. It helps that our BCAA Auto Club is picking up the tab for the car and our Gold Visa card covered the insurance.

The Honda was $375 for the new ignition switch and they had done a safety inspection on it as well. Everything passed. We drove downtown, had lunch and walked a bit but had to quit because it is just too bloody cold! We went into the historic Battle Hotel which Stonewall Jackson once made his headquarters. I think the hotel was rebuilt since then but it still looked very old but elegant with many of the original dishes and ornaments on display.

Photos from Google Images. It was too cold to take photos.



We are heading out on Thursday morning. It is just not that much fun when it is this cold. We have seen only about half of what we planned here.

  1. i think we all need a change of continents :) We're here in Matehuala for the night and it is already 3C. We should be heading to Yucatan instead of home! Have a good trip. Hi Norma!

  3. Yes, Croft, it's time to head out to warmer climes - but where? Florida's got lots of cold weather too right now. I'm paid here until February 1st; I'd rather be in Hawaii or ??? for the climate. Well, then I tell myself to stop grumbling - it's still soooo much better than working!

  4. My father used to say that the only thing you can change about the weather is your attitude towards it. Fortunately that's not totally true when you have a motorhome. You can always drive to better weather. Mexico is calling...

  7. So sorry the weather was not better for you in Mobile. Years ago we lived in Mobile and New Orleans and we liked both. But Mobile is still my favorite of all the places we have lived. Hope it warms up for you.
