The first day we were at Quartzsite, Arizona, I broke a tooth. Split in half and causing pain, I needed some relief. We asked for recommendations from our Boomer friends and settled on Dr. Jerry. I made an appointment as soon as possible and on my first visit, he pulled the broken tooth and set me up for replacing it with a bridge. Today, after another night in the Quechan Casino parking lot, I walked to the border and crossed into Mexico. These are some pictures of the day.
Sunrise as I am leaving the motor home for my mile and a half walk.
Los Algodones is not a big city. It’s mostly medically oriented businesses catering to snow birds from the north. Dr. Jerry’s office is not hard to find even though there are hundreds of dentist offices to choose from.
After the prep for my bridge, he released me for an hour and a half while he made my temporary. I found this plaza area and cased a few restaurants for future possibilities when we return for my finished product on Thursday.
Getting back across the border requires standing in line. Today it took my 40 minutes, but the wait can be as long as two hours depending on the time of day.
