Turtle Speaks Out

 On my way to Santa Fe to look at a new larger home for myself. Apparently the Turtle disagreed with my intentions, because he began to spit, sputter, and became nearly in operable. Eventually stopping at Storrie Lake State Park. Called several shops in town for a quote for a tune up.

 The first being All Terrain Transmission, and the first question out of there mouth was "You from outta town?" They ended up quoted me $585 for a basic tune-up, the rest of the shops quoted between $250, and $300, so if your in the Las Vegas NM area I highly recommend NOT using them.

With the help of my camp neighbor Mike, two trips to town, and a hour and half of bullshitting we managed to get a tune up done for $67. Here's a few more pics....

 Mike my camp neighbor from Waco TX. Takes 3 to 4 months a year to travel in the mountains. Tried to offer him dinner for helping me out, but he refused several times saying he was just glad to help.
 Mikes rig has everything he needs for his 4 month adventure.

 Robert another camp neighbor in remission from cancer decided to buy this lil rig, and head west for a few months. Plans on returning home to North Carolina buying a small piece of land, and living a simple life.
 Roberts rig. Robert also wrote a book called Marble Mountain Memoirs
 John Rogers another camp neighbor.  Him, and his traveling companion Jennifer (also a van-dweller) made me a fine dinner of turkey burgers, and stir fried veggies. Thanks

So when I am at a point maybe to buy something a bit bigger to call home. The Universe show's me 4 other simple homes. So for now I guess Ill ponder. Ill post some pics of camp, and the other shenanigan's here at Storrie Lake soon. Guess there's a biker rally here in Vegas this coming weekend, so contemplating moving, but that could be a lot of fun as well? Thanks for visiting. Good Day!
