Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Hello Everyone, and Happy Cinco de Mayo from El Centro, California!  I've been sitting here in my truck all day waiting for a load assignment, only to realize that this part of CA is closed on the 5th of May!

I thought I would take the opportunity to celebrate this holiday by enjoying some authentic Mexican food, which I found just down the street from the truck stop.  Excited to eat some really good food, my bubble quickly burst when I saw the big red "CLOSED" sign on the door!  What to do???

Then, I had an idea!... All was not lost, as I quickly "ran for the border" and did my best to enjoy a fiesta of food on Cinco de Mayo.  I started with a Chalupa Supreme!


As usual, I had fun reading the hot sauce packets.  Their little sayings become more clever as time goes on:


After eating my celebratory "Mexican" meal, I walked back to my truck to relax and enjoy the remaining few hours of Cinco de Mayo.  I FaceTimed Lillian and had a great face to face conversation with her.  I really cannot wait for her to join me in my travels.  Tomorrow I will be back on the road and heading toward my next destination, but it was nice to spend Mexico's national holiday so close to the border.

It is now time to take my siesta, but I wanted to say that I hope everyone had a great Cinco de Mayo.  Good Night from Trucker Timoteo...
