Hanging Out In Tucson

We've been hanging out in Tucson this last week.  It has been a quiet week with very hot days and thunder storms.  Last night the skies opened and it poured.  We had an evening of lightening and rolling thunder that continued through the night.

The stay here has been a little longer than we planned due to car trouble.  As you may remember we had to replace the transmission in the motorhome this summer.  On the trip south the Honda Fit was acting strange.  We took it into the Honda dealer, they said it needed a new transmission.

We expected the worst but were happily surprised when the Honda company paid for the whole job.  The car is a 2012 with 42,000 miles so it is out of warranty.  Honda said that their transmissions don't fail at that age, so they picked up the whole bill. 

Honda is a great company. 

The procedures to enter Mexico have changed so we have been getting our paperwork ready for Tuesday morning when we cross the border.  We will take two days to drive the 750 miles to Mazatlán. 

The Honda is ready to go.... life is good.
