Some of you may notice my theme is gone. I’m not entirely sure what happened but it looks like somehow my theme was deleted along with my title and personal “about me” photos. It will get fixed as soon as it can.

Today our small caravan drove 300 miles from Tucson, AZ to El Paso, TX. This is our second night in a Super 8 motel and the only positive thing I can say is that this one smells slightly better than the last one. We drove about 20 miles on a “washboard” dirty road up to JCJ ranch for some good ole Texan Hospitality. We had a great dinner thanks to Jo and Chip Johns at their ranch. I’ve never seen so much western memorabilia in my life. It was pretty cool. The best quote of the night came from Gerie. Something about the Texas flag and boobies. I was amused every time I heard the word come out of his mouth! I think my face hurts from laughing still.

Tomorrow we head across the border. We’ve grown to include about 15 cars of people here. There are some new faces which I’m expecting to see again at La Carrera as they’re using the Chihuahua Express as a test bed. It’s a great idea and it really will help to prepare newbies for the 7 day adventure of their lives. Right now I’m greatful to be running in a 3 day as I don’t think I could do the full 7 days but I’ve been dying to go out on another run. Everyone else I had met previously, most people have brought their La C cars but a few have brought evo/wrx type cars.

We are still classed in 2400+ Turbo which we are neither. I’m hoping their are enough cars in -2400 to make a class or else we will be moved up to 2400+, which is fine with me but I’d rather it not be 2400+ T!!!

Pictures, I swear I’ll start to take pictures. It’s just that nothing really has happened yet. Your best bet is to check Coop’s blog which I’m too lazy to go and look up the link for.

All that being said, I’m going to read more out of my silly fiction book and try to be asleep before 1am.
