Rich and Helen, where are you???????
OK, we need to know you aren't in a fence somewhere, where is youall?
We got a cold front moving in here, (and everywhere else, I imagine)
Sue and I just returned from riding our bikes over the London Bridge, we are 1.4 miles from the bridge. We stopped for a cold one at the bridge, cloudy and a little windy. the temps dropped all the way down to 66........... 
Michael and Kathy, (Snfexpress) are biking now, Kathy bought Sue's Trek, a very nice bike, then Michael went to the bike shop and bought a super duper pretty Brown and Tan 24 speed cruiser. We stopped at their campground, Indian Joes, Crazy Horse, something like that, they were out on the town somewhere.
You are probably somewhere around Deming, or Lordsburg, maybe into Arizona around Benson. Tucson??? that would be a pull, but I know you veterans are up to it.
Talk to you.
Ozz and Sue

Rich said they were getting an early start so I would think they would be stopped by now.

Rich,
That's the best way to go. No fuss no muss. If you stay Sunday take in the Tanque Verde swap meet. The office can direct you and stay away from that Camping World it'll cost you. Safe travels

When you're leaving Mich, Ohio this time of year that's just what it is, an escape. You watch the storms and go like h***

That's why we left in September...
Sunny, with a few clouds, and 80 here at Champions Gate (5 miles S of Disney) today. Glad you and Helen are almost there, Rich. We have been following your trip on here. Cheryl keeps asking for updates on you two.

Rich and Helen,
Glad to hear that you aren't having any problems. It looks like you are getting good advice from 8.1al, steer clear of CW. 
Dave,
I was looking at your time and temperature display and noticied that we are 1 degree warmer than you are. It is a beautiful 76 F sunny day here in Driftwood Texas. I am sure at some point you will stay a little warmer than we are though.

We are settled into our tempory spot for the next week at Havasu Rv resort then on to our assigned spot for the rest of Jan. Beautiful resort only 3 years old.. A bit cold for Az, only in the low 60's , but a lot better than Northern, Ohio. There are a lot Of Montana's here. Passed 5 of them walking down 2 streets to the clubhouse. Hope we have enough MOC cards to give out.Now to unpack and..as Helen says...sort things out. Oh yea...7 days of laundry on board..To much for the Splendede..really clean laundry room here.
