Night 4 and Day 5

NOTE: These next posts are going to be devoid of pictures and are just details for those that want to know....we are not getting much access to wifi and are just trying to get the info out quickly...!

The deep freeze that is affecting Canada must have pushed cold air as far south as Southern CA. It got to -4 last night staying in Palmdale just northeast of LA and there are remnants of snow and frost on the roadside. Still wearing long pants and coats.

Then, this morning's drive took us over the mountains and into the huge sprawl of LA. Having departed from the I5 yesterday, we choose a path at skirted the eastern edge of LA through San Bernardino. Still the multi-lane highways, flyovers and cloverleafs, and sheer volume of traffic is nuts. At least we've been greeted with temperatures of up to 21 degrees and clear blue skies. We stopped for lunch in a crazily cute western town called Temecula before battling the San Diego traffic en route to Potrero County Park. At only 4 miles from the MX border at Tecate, it's the best stop before the big crossing day.
