Moved on from the deep south --so wanted to see the swamp people-but too humid get back here in the fall over spring --pulled over at a road side veggie stand in Loisiana  for the best veggies and this guy one of 23 kids- lots of twins-good thing for her-- from a mom who was a single child and did not want her family without siblings--got that done and lived till 93 and dad at 101 James was part of the forced intergration of schools and his new teacher said he was poor-did not know what she meant- he was well fed from the farm- and had their own the family baseball team and won state competition .So otta there and thru Oklahoma  and Texas into New Mexico --Wow still hot but humidity drops and much cooler and the mountains start to come about in the distance. So moving up into New Mexico I -40 truckers passing us waving away--these guys are friendly - no clue now we know-got to Santa Rosa state park and hear clunk -clunk in one of the wheels-ripped that apart blew a wheel bearing.Next day down to Bozos garage -yep thats his name -sent us off to Albuquerque 100 miles away Mcbrides spring shop ---they did not have the small part too old--so they custom built a new axel in 3 hours -while we toured around this great town.Never thought about a home depot  on a road trip but got concrete blocks to hold up the house to make the axle change.Thank you Santa Rosa for letting us make repairs and great swim in the lake and sunsets,
Great folks here. Heading up to Sante Fe. Live for the moment
