    Drop off that none of our trucks could handle, well maybe Davids:D

    looking into the actual Box canyon. You're not allowed to drive in it, but there is some really awesome hiking/climbing up in there.

    boxcanyon2_d4cfe2f91ebb2fc8e61dce8cae0a745add1f63f7.jpg

    All in all, I don't think there is enough there to make driving all the way from abq worth it. It is just a cool place to hang out though.

    It's the opposite of my SAF Tacoma w/ teh bull bar. :eek:


    It was very :cool: of everyone to not make fun of me for that. :D

    I'm going to put the lights behind the grill after I get a grill or make one.

    I'm better at fabricating songs. I'm considering asking Silas if he'd help me make a grill since he's got some experience with that. I've got tools, but my hands don't work as well as they used to because of arthritis.

    That bull bar has to go, though. :deadhorse:

    Sure, I'll help you, but I'm actually not experienced with making satoshi grills lol:D I'm slowly getting material to build one, but I haven't actually done it yet. haha Most of the guys here have made one though, I think..... Once I get some lights, I'll probably sart on it (which I've been doing recearch on, recently) so I might have some experience under my belt soon enough. :cool:

    Do you want a satoshi like Raymods? (sort of a "deep dish" look) or something like the grillcraft grills where they sit flush with the outside of the outside (front) of the grill?

    SOCORRO, N.M. November 9, 2011 -- New Mexico Tech is tightening security and asking everyone on campus to be vigilant and observant about suspicious activity in Socorro. Earlier this week, the Socorro Police Department received a letter threatening violence to Socorro government and school installations. The letter states that the target date is Friday, Nov. 11.
    New Mexico Tech officials have been meeting with local, state and federal law enforcement officials. The FBI is in charge of the investigation, but local and state police and law enforcement from other federal agencies are all on high alert.
    The writer of this threatening letter does not appear to be targeting New Mexico Tech; however, the university considers this a serious threat. Campus will remain open and classes will proceed as usual. However, everyone should be on the look out – not just on campus, but everywhere in Socorro.
    Tech is encouraging – even insisting – that all employees and students be cautious and aware of their surroundings. Further, employees and students should report any suspicious activities or unattended packages to campus police immediately by calling 835-5434 or by calling 911. All members of the campus community should be vigilant without overreacting.
    Campus police have increased patrols and intensified their routines. Officers are working overtime until authorities determine the potential threat is passed.
















    Some freak is going to bomb the school lol.
