warning, avoid nogales on Jan 10
I will be taking 17 rigs across that day. We will probably plug up km21. Best to avoid crossing.

Actually I just remembered another experience of a caravan - or convoy. Up north on the way to Alaska. 20 large motorhomes all sequentially numbered front and back and a couple marked "Staff". At the stop we could hear the radio calls Caravan 1 rolling........ Caravan 2 rolling ......Caravan 3 rolling ....... all the way up to Caravan 20 rolling.
The silliness and lack of consideration isn't confined to the USA of course. A few years ago someone organized an outback tag-a-long tour from Adelaide to Birdsville up the Birdsville track. Half way up a major river was in flood and a ferry was started up again after sitting idle in a dry river bed for donkey's years. 35 RVs hit the ferry at once which could only fit one large vehicle on at a time with a turn around time of more than half an hour. Blood is still boiling over that fiasco.
