Having failed to get ur act together to spend the winter in Chile - that will have to wait til next winter - we took the RV out of storage on a day we could finally drive through the mountain of snow and ice. No signs of mice this winter, yeah.
The line of least resistance is to head south into the new banana republic. No wall is up yet to stop us going south. It is much warmer down there. We will take the risk.
A mild weekend and good forecast lets us get on the road on - sweet - Valentine's Day Feb 14 in clear dry weather.
The border guard asks us how long we are going there for. We say two months. Is this holiday? No this is life. Are we going to work there? Certainly not. No guns, rifles, dogs, cats, fruit, meat or over $10k in cash? Nope. And off we go...tada.
Day 1 in Great Falls, we return to the friendly pizza place next to the hotel on the river, beautiful sunset and sun on the river in the morning.
Day 2 in Idaho Falls. It is snowy on the mountains but dry on the roads. We make good time and after a brief rest, walk along the river and lovely blue ice falls to the nice little Jalisco Mexican resto where happy hour give us $2 margaritas (me) and $2 16oz beers (Ted) along with $4 dinner. (Home made salsa and bean dip and a huge pile of warm taco chips, an Enchilada, beans, rice, salad.)
The first of many signs on resto doors "Help wanted". Yup, you have no idea how much help you are gonna need now oh great America...
