Here's our turn off. Back off the pavement.
|
|
i wonder which Jamau this is?
|
Or is this one Gamau?
|
|
4:25p. More cows in the road
|
They are not interested in moooving out of the way
|
|
hunh?
|
Lets get back in the road before this Jeep gets any closer...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the little one is fuzzy!
|
|
5p. A happy, muddy girl
|
5:47p. Its lighter later up in the mountains
|
Happy New Year!
|

Brain gets dramatic when he's allowed to light Dave's fireworks. Actually the torch worked better than a butane lighter.
|
Happy New Year! Jan 1st 2005. 9:45am
|
|
12:14p. All packed up and out of camp. We need to head north today and tomorrow.
|
Louise spotted our missing/broken trailer plug in the road
|
|
|
A mini parade!
|
Great weather today!
|
|
|
wild burro
|
and a horse
|
|
It's fun driving the Baja dirt roads
|
3:30p Uh oh! It's not supposed to look like this! Broken.
|
Broken or just badly bent? um, broken, but not all the way through.
|
We are still have 40 miles more of this rough dirt before we get to pavement
|
It looks bad, and it is. But the trailer is not on the ground yet.
|
Jack it up & take a look
|
I need to get my own bottle jack! This one is Brian's and it telescopes well.
|
Hmmm. Stuck. Can't pull it out. (4:15p)
|
|
Unbolting everything nearby
|
|
I'm really glad the Lock N Roll hitch was bolted on, not welded!
|
That stuck tongue piece is gonna come out!
|
Hold the Trailer back!
|
Ok, we're hooked up. I'm going to drive the Jeep forward. You guys keep the trailer from moving.
|
It broke along the bottom 1st, then the sides. The top is still connected. Lucky too, or it would have very hard to remove
|
Luckily we have friends to help!
|
5pm and the spectators are remaining calm
|
a toast to the working class
|
This will make a nice computer desktop too
|
Ok, I've got a plan! This hi-Lift jack is going to save us. If only the holes lined up better!
|
Ok, it's beautiful!
|
|
The electrical had gotten ripped out yesterday, but we found the 7 wire plug this morning.
|
1/2" drive socket as a spacer, since the hi-lift holes don't line up with the Lock N Roll hitch.
|
Time to celebrate! It's really gonna work! We don't have to abandon the teardrop in Baja Mexico!
