Funny you should mention the job thing. I was thinking that you guys need two people in that place. Now, there’s no reason why a manager can’t be a mechanic and vise versa, but with the amount of business you do, there should be two people (just my opinion). I couldn’t do your job though. Not both mechanic and manager. Manager I’d have a better handle on. But mechanic - I’d love to learn.

I’ll be there in mid-June and will stop in to say hi.

The tire seems to be working as a tire should. We went off road a bit today (purposely) and even that went well.

Thanks!

Laters,
Nick

just south of grants….

“El Malpais- “the badlands” in Spanish - is a spectacular volcanic area, featuring spatter cones, a 17 mile-long lava tube system, ice caves and lava flows, which blanket much of this park.. The area is also rich in ancient Pueblo Indian history and features diverse ecosystems. This landscape’s origin dates back some 2,000 to 3,000 years, when lava poured out of McCarty’s Cone.”

Those were pretty big lava fields, but once I hit the desert, I’ll see two REALLY huge ones. Hopefully I’ll even be able to hike a volcano. But we’ll see how hot it is.

Chinese is always hit or miss. Actually, Chinese is almost always “ehh” or miss. It’s rare that it’s a hit.

And lava fields in New Mexico! Who knew, for some reason I found that really exciting.

But, I just don’t know what to say about the cucumbers in the homestyle tofu, that’s just plain weird. Just another reason I fear Chinese restaurants, except for this one of course http://www.thevegetablegarden.com/
