We have had problems getting on the net again so we haven't added anything till now. We left the Valley on on Friday the 28th. When we hitched up we noticed that one tire looked low. Drove over to the air compressor and checked all the tires. We went about 75 miles and after passing the Border Patrol check point we pulled into a rest stop. I rechecked the tire and it had lost 30 lbs of pressure. Called the repair service and they came out and changed the tire. It was the same tire that gave me trouble on the way to Texas. Found a tire repair shop on the road and stopped to have it fixed. The tire was shot. Continued on to just south of San Antonio and unhitched and went to a Discount Tire store. I looked at the other tire and it didn't look good. They checked it and it was bad too. Ended up buying 2 new tires.

Welcome to New Mexico

Right now we are in Deming NM. With the winter storms hitting even here we may be here for another day or two.
