a.  Just saw the big pipe bar over the entrances at Soriana plaza in La Paz....bad thing. Apparently placed to stop big trucks from entering
the complex, I saw a VW bus w/ surfboard box on it's roof scraping the pipe to leave the center. It would be a disasterous event if a
full-size camper tried to pass through there, it would  be cut in half. Be forewarned, everyone.

ROAD REPORTS

a.  Joe and I left LB returning to California on 3/14 and spent the night at the El Morrow in Santa Rosalia.  Found that the rooms were in need of repair.  We didn’t feel comfortable to use the shower.  The rooms need a good cleaning and so does the restaurant. Great location.   Stayed at Les Jardines in San Quintin on 3/15.  This was our first visit. Gardens are beautiful, room was large and spotless. Rate was 550 pesos total.  The food at the restaurant next door was delicious.  We will make time to explore and enjoy the gardens at this lovely hotel.
Only 5 military stops to the border, but over 250 Tope! Crossed at Tijuana at about 12 noon.  Got in the slowest lane!  The customs person in our lane did 1 car, while other inspectors did 4 to 5.  Took us about 1 hour and 20 minutes.  No secondary inspection. No request to open camper shell, no request for paperwork on 2 dogs. We had 4 months worth of stuff in the truck. I did have a list of all of our purchases with estimated prices which we showed the customs agent.
Road conditions were fine.  Minor construction around Toledo.  We are back to rain and cold in California. Cheryl DesNoyer. lazyjranch@calwisp.com
