We found the animals!!!!


Great way to start the morning...some pickleball!  We found a court with a beautiful Mountain View!
After many meandering miles right along side the Mexico border we found the animals!  Right here at the Licon Dairy.  Very nice people run this huge farm.  As part of Harvest Hosts they let us spend the night for free in exchange of goods or services.  Some are wineries, you could buy wine, or breweries..you get the idea.  John bought fresh tortillas and we had burritos for dinner. Some Mexican bread, pecans (for pecan pie at Megan and Jed’s) and native made snickers and m&m’s.  Sadly no fresh ice cream...lots of homemade goat cheese!

I hope this didn’t mean inside your motorhome😬

Look closely at the Mexican bunnies....yeah they do look a lot like chickens!  

Yes we are very close to NY City..see the lady!

“Kenny”..the kangaroo 

One poor cow’s head was too big to fit through the slate...I help him get some food.

This is Joe...who copies laughs...he sounded just like me.

Mr Turkey ...showing off

Wilbur

A Camel...the zoo didn’t have a camel.
Cute donkeys..every one ran up to the fence to greet us...looking for the corn mixture they sold to feed to the animals.  Good trick, free feed and keeps the animals friendly.


Lots of Goats..billies, dwarfs and Llamas too.

Texas .....even the teenagers had nubs.

Making sure we didn’t mess with Texas

...some Texas Flora 

Running for his breakfast. 
We tried really hard to get them to show off their tail feathers...not even sure if they could get down off the perch.  Very vocal at night...not a pet you want to have at home.

We didn’t see any but we believe.

Our favorite stop so far...we’ll be back!

Does it really matter

 Really, I am not going to change it or try and fix it, that would require sending another link and confusing everyone especially me!  So the name of the Blog was suppose to be “Heads Carolina, tails California and then you have a title for each post.  Well I wondered where the “one mile at a time aka you never know when you’ll breakdown”came from.  Apparently I opened up an existing blog and just added to it,  well, that title could be any of our trips so it is staying!  Now I am really going to bed, we plan on leaving around 8 am tomorrow Monday March 9.  I downloaded the APP so I hope that helps, I see I am having difficulty with picture placement…by the end of August I should have it down! We did it, we left at 8:30, no wind, a little rain on the 8 and smooth sailing into Yuma for our $3.49 gas (high for AZ) Buddy is well taken care of by neighbor Bill and the various other dogs than run in our hood.   Our entertainment included our book “The ...

Did someone say Friday the 13th?

​where to start…  Gas buddy directed us to a gas station in Abilene, Texas that was $3.15 a gallon just off the freeway and there was a Walmart perfect! We need yogurt creamer, and M&Ms💕 it all seemed perfect, especially when we saw the Brahms ice cream store over the hood of this guy‘s truck,(for those of you not familiar with Brahms ice cream, It is the best but it’s only in Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas and may be a handful of othet state states.) then we noticed the sign that they were out of unleaded gas🥲 we went in anyways and got our three items in a store that we don’t think anyone looked happy glad to be out and over to Brahms John got a sundae I didn’t feel like ice cream I got a fry. It was OK. GasBuddy leads us to another gas station for $3.49 it was supposed to be $3.19 and everywhere else in Abilene is 3.19. we’re in a motorhome at 7 miles a gallon a few blocks we find the $3.15  gas, perfect! Back on the road on the 20 east and a new book we finished the widow a...
