    Prices going up?

    So where did you find the RV fridge? Where are any good stores for RV parts, appliances, ACs, etc.? We had an incident with our 5th wheel's AC seals a few months ago. We didn't know of any place to get that fixed, but we didn't look very hard. We just waited 'til we got back to the US and...

    More about dog food and groceries at the border

    Thanks! We will still buy dog food while we are there. Just want to make sure there is enough for the trip + any delays that might occur along our 1200 mile trip! Losing the extra food wouldn't be a big problem but I don't want to mess with those fines.

    More about dog food and groceries at the border

    As I understand it the issue is the beef. So what if the dog food is lamb and rice? And no beef? Would that be allowed?

    More about dog food and groceries at the border

    Yikes. We were planning on limiting our dog food to a week's worth - to make sure we had enough for the trip and a little extra until we got to the store. I guess we'll just have to plan even more carefully! We hope to be heading there in the next week!

    Happy Birthday, Rosie!

    Hope you had a great party! BTW, my dad liked to talk about a friend of his that started counting backwards. Her husband made her stop when she got back to 21. He wanted to make sure she could still buy him his beer!

    Got the Secondary Inspection Yesterday

    When I've taken cruises from Galveston, they tell us we can bring back one liter per person if we live in TX and 5 liters otherwise.

    bombs going off

    Yes, I heard several "pop" last night. Power blinked off several times and then stayed off from about 2:00 - 5:30AM. Anyone know how widespread the power outages were?

    Foods allowable ....

    We keep all the pet vet stuff in the glove box. They both had vet trips in April right before our last trip. I know the health certificates are only supposed to be for 7 (or so) days. But I think we're OK as long as their rabies shots are current. If not, I'm not sure if I can get them to...

    Foods allowable ....

    We've crossed several times in the last 3 years and only got a red light once. Just showed them our insurance and car title. OK, so it was my in-laws car, but we made sure his name was on the insurance, too. Didn't hurt that it was the same last name. No problems. The 1st time we crossed...

    Done! ... But will that keep the border guards happy?

    Foods allowable ....

    True, but we'll be driving 2 days to get there. It will be tricky to try to figure out exactly how much food to take (not too much, not too little). Some days they are hungrier than other days. Do-able yes, but not convenient. Do any of the stores in Sonoyta or Peñasco have Beneful? That's...

    Foods allowable ....

    I've seen contradictory posts on dog food in the last month or so. We plan to bring dog food for our 2 dogs on our next trip (within the next week or so). Will they allow it if they see you have your dogs in the car with you? Or, is it now officially no dog food AT ALL? We have decided...

    Solar options

    Good point. Like I said, I'm just in the learning and exploring stage. I want to learn all the pros and cons and determine if it's even worth doing anything. I understand the technology is always improving and has gotten more reasonably priced. But didn't know if it was good enough yet...

    Solar options

    I have no problem with "used" equipment. Just trying to find out what is reasonably "feasible."

    Thanks Terry C. I'm still interested in other's responses, but this could be a good place to start for info!

    Solar options

    We own a house in Las Conchas and are considering solar options. What is available in Peñasco? Should we consider options only to help with air conditioning / heating or are there reasonably priced options for the whole house? Are there neighborhood restrictions that would keep us from doing...
