RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
I met Richard on this thread, like a lot of us. It was such a joy getting to know him, both here and in person in Albuquerque and at the occasional Old Fella Rally. He was so kind to my big, floppy, goofy Irish Setter Bortan and my Golden, Amroth. He did good things. He was fun. He and Sue were inspiring. He'll be greatly missed. If we live on in our friends' memories I know he'll always be a bright spot in mine. If we live on, on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge, I know he had a very happy Arrival and is safe in our Father's loving arms. Bon Voyage, Richard!

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Dale we are so sorry for your loss and wish you all the best (and no stress!) while you cope with the estate.
We're also so sorry to hear Richard is in hospice. It comes to us all eventually, but it's still a blow. We've all had such good times. I wish him well as he heads over the Bridge.

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Hope all are doing well and that Richard is doing reasonably OK? Has it really been 16 years? Amazing!!! Love to all of you - and let's "hook up" if you're ever in Vegas! (In then nicest possible way, of course.)

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Well we're doing OK here in Las Vegas. At last the heat has broken - at night anyway. Took the dogs for our desert run yesterday at 0400 and it was down in the 70s. 2 hours later it was over 90, but can't complain. Planning a trip to Chama NM soon. Can't wait! (Puppy's first big trip)

Kayenta AZ Burger King - Code Talkers Still There?
Is the Navajo Code Talkers exhibit still on display at the Kayenta AZ Burger King? Have any of you passed through there recently?
It was privately owned and not part of the larger collection in Gallup, and I'm hoping it's still there.

RE: Stone Mountain campground
I stayed there in 2020. Heed the info about the flat/wide sites for big rigs. The loop I stayed on was rather steep and needed a LOT of leveling. On the other hand, the lakeside sites were great. The sites are also well-separated so you're not right on top of your neighbors. Bring a sense of humor, good levelers and excellent chocks!

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Hello everyone, just saying hi from Las Vegas. If any of you ever come through be sure to let me know. We have a new puppy named Beren who's keeping our older girl Nimrodel busy. I hope Richard is doing OK. I know he's in all our prayers.

RE: Is Facebook killing this site?
I love this site. It has a totally different feel from Facebook. Y'all are very helpful and kind so far.

RE: Lord of The Rings Runaround?
Hi there! As far as I know, the LOTR series, if it ever gets off the ground, will be included in your Amazon Prime membership. You might need a VPN to watch it in Mexico, but most ISPs have them, as well as several excellent providers. I've helped people use https://protonvpn.com/
No information was available, last I looked, on actual air dates or how long the episodes will be. I expect the format will be much like Game of Thrones. The latest reliable news I could find is here: https://www.indiewire.com/gallery/amazons-lord-of-the-rings-explained-plot-cast/

RE: Listen to your Dad
Well, it was the kind that has a round head to be pressed into the valve stem, and a tube, out of which the meter stick protrudes when you check the pressure. Has a pocket clip. Like a fat headed pen. Kind of old fashioned, though this one wasn't old at all. Strictly mechanical, not digital.
Apparently you're not supposed to drop that kind of gauge.
I live in Las Vegas - everything digital dies really quickly here.

Listen to your Dad
So my dad always said, "don't point anything under pressure at your face." I always thought, "Like, duh!" You know, it's that dad-daughter thing.
So we're headed out on a jaunt. I grab my trusty tire pressure gauge, check the first trailer tire, no prob. Walk around the trailer, drop the gauge, pick it up, check the second trailer tire......
And the gauge exploded in my hand. The steel tube shot 3 parking places away and hit another trailer with a fair amount of force.
I was left holding just the head of the gauge, and glad my subconscious listened to my dad.

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Heading tomorrow out on a 3 week round trip to pick up the new puppy. Can't wait to meet him in person! Hope you're all doing well. Looks like a lot of RVs are hitting the road this week. Be safe out there.
