iff yall or going to be in Santa Fe for a while you should eat at La Casa Sena, or the Cantina next door.

The Cantina next door is a dinner show w/ two seatings but your waiter/waitresses are the actors. Both have great food

Wrong mexico for the donkey show.

Woke up this morning and all of the rigs were still there. That's a plus. I could definitely get use to this weather. But the dead cars on the other hand...

Yeah, not even close this time. Scott and Cody are typically needing it sooner than me. Cody gets worse mileage anyway and Scott has a heavier load (thus worse mileage). I did however come prepared. 10 gallons in the bed with a good siphon kit packed away. JIK :D

We just arrived in Alamosa. Missed the Great Race event by 3 hours. :(

No now we're just chillin' at the holiday in. Hitting Blanca Peak (or something like that in the morning).

TAMOR Expedition Out. :cheers:

A few more from my collection. We drove around at the dunes yesterday before hitting the road. We arrived in Canyon City yesterday, for our three night stay. Watched the yokel fireworks show. They started before it got dark. :confused:

Hit the Patriot trail today. Scott ripped off his ram mount so we ended up peeling off onto Liberty to finish out. Busas brand new PSC box started hemoraging. They're overnighting a replacement. Linda tacoed a drag link. Scott put on the spare. That was about it. Fun trail. The entrance was pretty lively, but after the first couple hundred yards, it tamed out. Similar to a couple of Clayton trails in that it was just slick enough to make it really fun.

We'd like to get everyone running again and go hit Patriot again in the afternoon tomorrow. Unfortunately, we're under a flash flood watch due to all of the rain we got this evening. They close the trails due to wet conditions sometimes, so at this point we're just keeping our fingers crossed.

In other news, I sideswiped a fire hydrant in the parking lot while backing up in the pouring rain. I think I did about $5k+ in damage if I had to guess. :mad: Sucko. I can't believe I did that.

We probably have over 200 photos between us. Here's a few more for your viewing pleasure.

We got home last night - Went to Lake Mineral Wells State Park, then to the Peach Festival in Weatherford after waking up yesterday morning.

In other news, is my haste of pulling out my winch cable in the pouring down rain on Carnage Canyon, my camera fell out and I drove over it. I'll have to find a card reader or something...

You haven't lived 'til you've closed down the bowling alley, then a bar or two in Mineral Wells! That is a cool park though, huh?

Sorry Scott, I have a multi reader. I would have mentioned that if I knew you were looking.

Hey David did the pump work out well?

davido
07-11-2006, 03:39 PM
Better, but not that great still. I went in and remove the washer/shim while I was there. Again, better, but still not great. I may have to go to a PSC or something of that extent. I'll probably wait to address it until after putting in a 5.3. ...But that may be a while if I get far into another project.

Sharpe

Well you can try drilling the orifice tube out some more and cutting another notch in the bottom of the fitting but remember at some point you will risk exploding the PS box from the excessive pressure.
