Here it is, February 2nd . . . nope! it is 12:50 am on February 3rd.  Thursday Jeanne had a 1:30 pm appointment at the dentist, but didn't get in until 2:55.  They were waiting on a delivery from the lab.  We sure learned not to wait for work in Mexico, but to go there as soon as we get south.  Before the first of the new year things are much slower than after the new year as so many more people wait to come south until after Christmas.  Oh well.  We stopped for shrimp tacos on the recommendation of some people sitting on the sidewalk eating them.  They were very good.  We ended up sitting on the sidewalk eating them as well.   It took us nearly 2 hours in line to exit Mexico, but at least it was warm.  Gordon sat on a bench about 1/3 way to end of line and Jeanne got in line.  Met a couple from Idaho - he was a Democrat and she a Republican.  Jeanne sure had a good time with him.  He was a great sport so they just bantered back and forth and it passed the time.     As we were pulling into Motel 6 there was a vehicle from Saskatchewan just parking, so we stopped and visited with them for several minutes.  Another night with nothing on TV.  

Friday dawned sunny but windy again.  Had breakfast at Denny's.  Went to the Yuma Territorial State Prison Museum then back to Algodonas for our final dental appointment which was at 2:00 pm.  Got in at about 2:10 and was out by 2:45.  Stopped and had shrimp tacos for lunch and then got in line.  This time the line was about 2/3 shorter than Thursday, so only took about 45 minutes.  Hopefully we are done in Mexico for this year.
