The two RV Gypsies are not sure what the
below structure is, but thought it was interesting, so Karen Duquette
quickly snapped a photo from the highway as they drove by it in their
RV. |

More people need to obey the below sign! |

Below; The two RV Gypsies loved the design
on the hill by the Welcome to California sign. |

Below: At the California checkpoint, the
agent actually entered the RV of the two RV Gypsies and opened their
refrigerator and removed their corn-on-the-cob and their apples, but
not their bananas. This was a first! |

Below: The two RV Gypsies drove past beautiful
sand hills and an aqua duct. The photos were taken through the window
of the moving RV. They were not able to stop anyplace. |

Lots of windmills everywhere. |

A SCARY EXPERIENCE: Lots of hills caused
the two RV Gypsies' RV to overheat and their RV had to be towed and
was in repair for about six days, leaving the two RV Gypsies homeless.
They broke down around 6 p.m.
 Eventually,
while standing outside of their RV, Karen Duquette noticed FOUR men
in a car watching the two RV Gypsies from across the street. The
two RV Gypsies quickly got back in the RV and locked the door. Almost
immediately, the tow truck came and it was about 10 p.m. The men in
the car across the street drove away when the tow truck arrived. They
were very thankful that the tow truck driver appeared at just the right
time. (This is why most RVers are carrying guns now-a-days)
It took the tow truck driver almost 2 hours to hook up the RV for
towing. Then the RV was towed for two hours to Freightliner in San Diego.
The two RV Gypsies did not get any sleep that night at all. Their jeep
also had problems and went into repair for several days, but the jeep
could not be fixed. Oh MY! Oh MY! They had to buy another tow car, but
almost had a problem because they did not live in California. So they
had to use Karen Duquette's sister address in order to buy the car. |
