We miss Pepito

A bit of sadness. Late Wed afternoon, our kitty, Pepito, darted out of Destino while we had our hands full. He and his brother, Minou, have done this before but Pepito has always been the daring one. We almost lost him at the Homeland Security checkpoint before Hoover Dam when he dove out. The guard grabbed him just in time. He did not come back so we decided to stay another day to see if he would. Sadly, he did not. We finally left Fri morning but new friends at Kino have our contact info if he returns. We pray that he is with a nice home on Kino Bay.

We left Kino at about 1000. Steve missed the turn off for the shortcut and we had to go back through Hermilsino. Not all bad since we got to see a Mexican city. Yes, we also saw: Walmart, Sams, Home Depot, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Sherman Williams’s Paints, and someone else that we are forgetting. We arrived at San Carlos (Guyamas) at about 1400. We didn’t care for the 1st RV park so we back tracked to Mirador. It is a first class facility with pool, hot tubs, full services, etc. But it is a bit sterile so we’ll only stay one night, rather than two. We thought it was on the water. That said, the views are great.



We did enjoy our visit into town. Charlie’s Rock had fantastic views at very low prices.



We then ventured to a very nice Mexican restaurant. We found out later that it is part of the university system that trains young people for the restaurant trade. In Mexican restaurants everywhere you get chips and salsa. But here, Alma made the Salsa to order!!!


A nice gentleman played very nice guitar music during our dinner.

Our primary waiter was Gonzalo, a very personable young man who has great dreams for his future. He will do very well…look for him in the high end tourist resorts. Daniele drove home because the Margaritas were VERY good. While we did not care for the RV park, we loved our visit to town. Still, all the people we meet are so very nice.
