Goals/Life Update - Day 657/1001
Jul. 25th, 2013 08:03 pmA warrior must cultivate the feeling that he has everything needed for the extravagant journey that is his life. What counts for a warrior is being alive. Life in itself is sufficient, self-explanatory and complete. Therefore, one may say without being presumptuous that the experience of experiences is being alive. ~ Carlos Castaneda ,Tales of Power

Still unable to update my profile. *frown*
Got past Willcox, Arizona (#64) in Ol' Number 3 today, grabbing a few geocaches along the way, and now we're safely hooked up to power in an RV Park that offers waffles and coffee in the morning. Stopped today at the Deming Luna Mimbres Museum, a surprisingly good local museum with many rare pieces of southwest, military, medical, and local history (#87), and also managed to anonymously do a good deed (#78).
I ran into many amateur radio operators today in Deming. The Museum and,the WalMart parking lot all led to friendly people talking radios, frequencies and contacts. Added two quarts of oil, and a bit of power steering fluid, but Ol' Number 3 continues to run well. Tomorrow we are considering our third National Park (Chiricahua National Monument) in the morning, before we press on to visit Amazon tomorrow night.
