We've Settled in the Sunshine - Mike & Janet - July 2024

 

Summer is Here !!

On our anniversary, we took off for Puerto Vallarta
with Pat, Rollie, Rollies daughter and her husband,
Rob and Leslie (just got married a week ago) and Phoenix friends.


We stayed the first week at the Barcelo
(about 45 minutes south of town)

Pat and Rollie at the buffet


One night we ate at the Italian speciality restaurant.
Better food than the buffet but still not the best.


 

We were right on the beach

After one week, everyone went home but we stayed for
another week at our time share in town.
Vallarta Torre


Also right on the beach…this was not all inclusive.  Restaurant
and home cooked food…MUCH BETTER!


At night we would have thunder, lightening and a rain shower.
The next morning, it as all dried out like it had never happened.

The marina was beautiful…Boats from all over the world.


One day, we went downtown to the Malecon
Beautiful as always.


We decided to stop for a drink

Beautiful day…but very hot.
It was a wonderful two weeks…..but now back to home.

Three days after returning, we had Tiny (our trailer)
all packed and ready to head north to the Portland area.

A pretty quiet trip till be got about 75 miles to go.
We pulled into a rest stop an noticed this huge bulge on Tiny’s tire.
Very strange…. Mike changed the tire an off we went.

After two hours at the tire shop in Salem, we had a new spare and
all is well.

We were quite lucky….. It wasn’t 118 degrees
It was Oregon..… but it was not raining.
      We were in a safe location
        (not on the edge of the road)


At Marc & Maria’s now…….. looking forward to this coming month.
