Not exactly how I wanted to leave New Mexico, but at least I got a free ride back to AZ. Well kinda free Richard the tow truck driver says it would have cost about $500. Thats the 3rd time AAA has saved my butt over the years.
Finally unloaded at the mechanics. Dave the mechanic, and I took a short joy ride, and the Turtle spat, and sputtered. Then after running several test to diagnose the problem. None could be found. Decided it was time to pull it around back for the night, and lo and behold it starting running just fine, so off I went!
Dave's done work on the Turtle before, and always gave a great rate,and if a overnight stay is needed you can be accommodated.

Determining the problem was electrical issue when it rains. Thanks for all the emails, and comments! As of today all grounds have been redone, so hopefully the Turtle, and I can put this behind us, but until I know for sure I'll be staying in the area.
Stopped by the Mesa for a brief visit. Yep its still there! Sign was still up, and my belonging were still there as well. Will be revisiting in the fall.
Finally after a couple nights in town I had enough supplies for a 4 to 5 week excursion to one of my favorite hideouts in the mountains, and was immediately greeted by my old buddy's. Thanks for visiting! Good day!
