Colorado River stop

So Far Dear ole Sugah has put on 2000+ miles.

Sunday night was a gravel parking lot at an intersection which we found by chance. We drove all the way to the colorado river and turned south towards Nogales. At "Blythe", it was pitch black outside, great stars tho, and we couldn't pull off the road so just stopped where a bunch of trucks were parked under orange lights.
Awoke to gravel and arroyos. Bella was in heaven with the smells and birds.

Courtney drove and I'd crash in the back and vice versa. Hardly spoke most of Sunday. We don't know each other very well and both of us are loners. I didn't want to stop in the sand along the road, Courtney was sure that we would be able to. At least her 20 yr old Toyota would have been able to.

It got real tense as night literally fell upon us. So the parking lot was a blessing and we didn 't much care as long as it was "off the road."

Getting the top up in the dark while tired required alot of patience, shall we say. Actually, I'm thinking this trip is much more than just a drive to San Miguel de Allende. It's about acceptance of another when I am tired, scared, misunderstood and hungry.

There has to be some humor in it all. Otherwise why bother. Sometimes I get above it and see how silly we are when it is a clash of egos. Other times, I'm ready to defend some little turf I think I can claim. Courtney is a tough cookie. I'm, of course, a sweetie.

So, on to humor....

Caught a couple of good signs as we flew by...

"Sore Finger Road"
Got off freeway needing a latte and right in front at intersection, "Java Detour" which was what we were doing!!

Great pee with windmills looking down upon us.
