one of the best little dittys i've read on here thus far


Quote:

Our Father,

Give us this day our daily drive,
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those that trespass on us,
And lead us not unto illegal closures
But deliver us from Sierra Clubbers
For thine is clearance,
The articulation,
And the traction forever. Amen

(Credit for this goes to an unknown off-road junky.)

AWNINGS


I bought some surplus parachute cloth - incredibly strong and featherweight, a lady of my acquaintance triple-seamed it and we put grommets in the corners.

IT's silent in those sudden night storms, will not tear.

This is a joke, but it's on me. We do a lot of remote camping in Baja, and when you find that perfect place, we don't want to move for 2 weeks. My camper has 30 gals of water, my boat trailer has 30 (+ 40 gals gasoline for the boat), so it's really enough - BUT -

for that perfect rig - how about a Survivor 36 (in the West Marine catalog). camp down near the shore, run a tube out with a filter, and desalinate! 3amp/hr and about 2 gals of water if I remember correctly.

Mercifully, I decided that this was perhaps overkill . . ..

I don't think a desal unit is "over the top" at all!

We usually go "muy compo" for 3 weeks at a time and prefer the spans to even be longer. Anything that advances that goal is GREAT as far as I'm concerned.

If your going for surf...chances are you are not going to be alone. because of this, we also carry 5 G water bottles so that when someone else goes to town, we hand them some bottles and pesos.
