Must have passed somewhere along the way. We stayed at Broke Mill RV park the night before. Tip on I-10 El Paso - take the 375 loop around and avoid the city area altogether. There may even be a better route but we haven't tried it. Tire problems are no fun. At least is was on the car and not the RV. Things to do in Del Rio but by the time you see this it will be too late. Have fun in MX and SMA and say hi to C & J ............Sue and Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05433957888767426674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5414957110325310952.post-47120222555757617152016-03-16T18:29:28.364-07:002016-03-16T18:29:28.364-07:00No rush you guys.

We don't need to leave until Sunday but we do have dinner at La Mistura on Saturday night :) Good thing you know how to handle a blow out and made it to the side of the road alright. These things happen but I have to laugh, "you're 27 year old donut spare". Hey, if it ain't broke, why fix it!<br />living.boondockingmexicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17157433834193440923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5414957110325310952.post-63802741667489639142016-03-16T16:01:22.726-07:002016-03-16T16:01:22.726-07:00Well if it was going to happen, it did in a good a...Well if it was going to happen, it did in a good area.
