Shocked that you didn't post pics of the new clear cuts between Pluvious and Wallville while making your escape, but I thank you for it.
Just because you've left Pacific County, doesn't mean it's ok to invite all the tourists in behind you.
How bad did they cut it up? They had done the south side years ago - and down by the new bridges on the north - I know the guy the lives down in Walville - did some work for me. His wife threw him out - he was involved in Jones brewery in Pe Ell Edit: Tiny houses is what his ambition was - then his wife asked him to leave

When I lived in Pacific County a daily occurrence is logging trucks - easily 15 or so a day. Since leaving Washington, a few logging trucks in Eastern Oregon and Idaho, a rare occasion in Utah and when I went to the Grand Canyon saw one logging truck. Numerous signs for one area north of the canyon about logging operations and that has been it.
Went to the Northern Rim of the Grand Canyon, really nice drive elevation up at 9K so a 4K climb and then all of a sudden the canyon is 50 feet to the side of the road. Jaw dropping. Bad news is the park is closed for winter Dec 1- thru Feb 28 - so why was it closed now?
Not able to do much of anything as I can't do hardly any walking due to bum knee, so gentle walking and no climbing. Had dog with us and no dogs allowed. Lodge and Saloon closed. still impressive - colors and all that are amazing
The other one that is interesting - some Germans are traveling in two rigs and pulled in last night. This thing is a VW - VW thing?
So Earth Cruiser's factory is about 4 miles from Casa de Yella. They use and Isuzu platform I believe.
Well I am a little slow - getting ready to leave Flagstaff and heading to the heat in that lovely part of Arizona Casa Grande, I will get the tailgate set up for the big game at ASU this weekend with our? substitute coaches and, I assume, the non-union scab team that will travel down to the heat along with their new hero Funiamavi.
Left the north Paiute territory and headed into Navajo territory with out any incidents. No wrecks, no pissing the natives off, only pissing the mrs off on occasion - so all is well
Last sunrise in the north First sunset in Flagstaff
Good thing about hauling your house around is if one needs to drop a deuce just pull over - the things I do for MrsIamnotinLebam wink wink
Try taking a photo as you drive across a bridge over the mighty Colorado River - I got lucky and only kind of scared the navigator
preview of coming attractions, two more nights is east Arizona, then a 17 day trip thru New Mexico sneaking on in to Texas. Have no idea where but will start looking for a 3 month stay somewhere I am sure there will be tornados, hurricanes, flooding, bugs, and gators.
Rolled into New Mexico the other day, if you have ever seen Lordsburg you would never want to see it again. That place looks so depressed. We turned off the freeway at Motel Road or something similar to that and every business was boarded up and in shambles. Sorry no pictures.
New Mexico should put some money into that place just so it is not an eyesore to all who enter into the state. As soon as we crossed into NM speed limit dropped to 55 due to dust storms, it is high desert with what looked like absolutely nothing growing. It all looked dead.
Dust storm off in distance never bother us - it was luckily way off in the distance - looks more like haze than dust but I will trust the government to tell the truth about the dust storm wink wink
Leaving Lordsburg area was a long steady climb up into the hills and finally got into some nice areas again. Guess I am not a barren desert fan. Geez can't wait till I get to west Texas, why the hell do the relatives live there?
Coming into Silver City is one of two open copper mines - should be Copper City. - this puppy is ugly it just popped up as we came over a ridge.
Silver City was a pleasant surprise, the camp ground is isolated and quiet as can be - this is our neighboring property
and the actual site we are staying at is large with no one near us.
Getting ready to vacate the Silver City area and head to Alamogordo, NM tomorrow. Since we are in the land of the flaming assholes we had to find a good Mexican restaurant - so many to chose from how does one pick -
Well this was posted in the entrance door along with them explaining that they are having trouble keeping staff.
Kind of made the decision easier and no I am not taking it to the exTug.
The food was great carnitas tacos with a Chile verde salsa and that my friends is how they got the name Land of the Flaming Assholes. I won't need a colonoscopy this year.

The Throbber needs to see/hear Mabel's side of this.
Preferably Mable's backside.
