Nacogdoches, TX, United States
I began this blog as a vehicle for reporting on a 47-day trip made by my wife and me in our motorhome down to the Yucatan Peninsula and back. I continued writing about our post-Yucatan travels and gradually began including non-travel related topics. I often rant about things that piss me off, such as gun violence, fracking, healthcare, education, and anything else that pushes my button. I have a photography gallery on my Smugmug site (http://rbmartiniv.smugmug.com).

Our 47 Day Mexican Adventure

On 11 January 2012, Carol Ann and I (not to mention our 3 cats!) will begin an RV adventure with 18 other RV's on a 47-day Fantasy RV Tour of Mexico.   The caravan will travel along the Gulf Coast of Mexico from Harlingen, TX to the Yucatan Peninsula with its beautiful beaches and dense jungles.  We will also make a day trip into the English-speaking country of Belize.  On the return trip we will travel the interior of Mexico, exploring colonial cities and the ancient cultures and ruins of the Aztecs, Mayans, Toltecs, and the Olmecs.

When we return to Harlingen, TX we will have traveled 3, 732 miles in our motorhome, not to mention the miles put on our "toad" (the car we tow behind the motorhome) making side trips.
