It's a good thing Randy can do plumbing!!!

Day 3 Where do I start. We arrived in Socorro at 9:30 a.m., met Marcos (nice guy), and started trailer repair. We are not sure why he had not checked the trailer out since fall. Eternal optimist type guy? Absent minded professor type? Who knows. Suffice it to say, Randy spent an entire day fixing busted plumbing, adjusting the furnace, tightening gas connections and lug nuts, fixing vents that wouldn't close and that was just in the morning. The good news: everything works. It may need some tweaking and we would like to have a pro check the furnace and hot water heater, but those 38 year old systems worked. Airstreams. You got to love 'em. The body is a little dinged and the skin needs polishing but that will be a great hobby for Randy when we get home.

Soooo we are still in Socorro in a motel...it just got too late to continue our journey. Tomorrow night we will be living in our little silver, I mean tarnished bullet. I'm an airstream owner! Yahoo!
