This is going to be a little short because all we’re really going to do for now is head into El Fuerte central and do a quick look before heading back for a quick nights rest. We arrived here in El Fuerte fairly early so that we could set up in our campground and prepare for tomorrow. Unfortunately it wasn’t all that simple…we’re in Mexico… Our guide book told us of this nice campground that most RV’rs used while taking the train up to Creel and the Copper Canyon. In following the detailed directions we found the sign indicating “RV Camping” and an arrow pointing down this narrow dirt road. Trees hung over it quite low and bushes made it even more narrow than it was originally. This looked a little strange and made us tell Sol and Carol to hang back while we drove deeper into this road of unknown. Fortunately we didn’t have our Endeavor, it wouldn’t have even come close to getting in. We finally arrived at the end of the road and found ourselves in someone’s personal driveway (still dirt). Well we’ve got to make a turnaround and head back out, but now we’ve encountered some low hanging wires and branches of some pretty good sized trees. I’m sure this wasn’t the first time that an RV’r had come down this lane and found themselves in this yard because it didn’t take long and we had the “man of the house” outside and helping with directing and watching as we negotiated through the maze of leaves, branches, and wires all within a wire fenced yard. Fortunately we left all the wires behind, but I’m sure that the senior will soon be out at the main road and re-painting that RV Campground sign to a large red circle with RV-Camping in the center. It turned out that the campground had closed up a couple of years ago but just a quarter of a mile and around the corner was a hotel that allowed camping…we’re saved. Now we’re all checked in, set up,
