AZ/KS/MO/OK/NM/NE, varies by the day...
Route suggestion - I-10 east to I-25 north might yield better driving conditions and more recovery support. Should you choose this route, I have you covered with towbars and a 5ton for the entire state of AZ and partway through NM. Where I stop covering you, Carnac and droprat and RGSinophir can probably cover you.

Welcome to the hobby. Lots of good activities in Elephant Butt...

I send my official welcome from El Paso, even though I have been talking to these guys all week. I want the rest of you to know these guys got hit hard with the disease. They were in attendance at the Luminaria Walk held last Saturday at Elephant Butte Lake. They saw, we talked, they bought, ALL IN LESS THAN A WEEK!!!

Good luck on the recovery.
