    That might be all you want to wear, If you aren't from here it takes a while to get used to this Heat. I'm still don't like it and I have been here since 1989 LOL.

    Decent day today. Tent went up. WeBoost moved for now....Solar panel did not move.....I MAY switch things around aka get a bigger panel. Other than the tent being 175 lbs, it went up pretty easy. Being OCD doesnt help so there was lots of shimmy-ing and measuring going on. I will still need to run power to the tent, luckily it comes with an Anderson plug so that makes things easy. Im actually really impressed with the tent. The build quality, the materials, the mattress, etc are really impressive for the money.

    In other news, FIL is now under 100lbs which is fcking insane to think and to say. Had a video call with his primary care and hospice will now be involved.......it was presented as this could be rehabilitative but the mental sometimes is the bigger mountain to climb so time will tell.

    I know it’s not NM, but same mentality in Arizona. We’ve been there twice and I’d would love to retire there. Wife not a fan of lack of beaches/water.

    LOL, That's not what George Strait says LOL. Nope there is not A Lot of Oceans around these parts but there is Tons of Sand!!!! Water for me is an Hour to two Hour drive, And one of those lakes is Pretty Big, If it Ever!!!! Gets full again. By boat it is over 40 miles long and close to a mile across in spots. It's the Rio Grande River where it's damned but the Lake is Elephant Butte.

    Took the scan tool to my friends shop, he has a Maserati there that he needed codes scanned.
    He bought a Snap-On scanner and that would not communicate with the car for whatever reason.
    The Autel connected no problem and read all the codes. :thumbsup:
