It is the hour before midnight, on the harsh, gray flat asphalt road along the banks of one of the Great Lakes . A truck races by like a shadow, the moon glowing behind a small house. The car swiftly goes on by, the dim light from the fogy night: --moon penetrating through the fog onto the tuck and house, where a man is standing by the road; -- music is heard coming from the car, Rock & Roll, as this stranger standing by the road, a man in a red plaid shirt, he stands erect, as if he was Paul Bunion; standing in-between the road and the house as a truck races by. I learned from him that the Hatch Valley once had a volcano erruption and the hot lave might be what made the chile taste so good. One thing was for certain, the best chile is planted and harvested in southern New Mexico.

Of course, I couldn't spit it out. How could I? To do so would be a disgrace, but more important was my pride and my arrival in the Chile Capital of The World. Instead I chewed as Harvey looked on. Never once did his expression change and in fact it wasn't until my eyes started to roll back inside my head, that he cracked a grin. That impassive manner finally gave way and he burst out laughing. But did I stop? Not a chance. i was too dumb to know what to do. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Equinox Chloe was born on March 22, 2012 my second granddaughter. She has been a blessing to me since the first time I saw her beautiful face. I am graced with the ability to work form the comfort of my home, however, my son has not been that fortunate. He is a welder and works 3rd shift so I volunteered to be the nanny and take care of the baby while he and his wife both worked. At 43 and having an 11 year old of my own, this life checkpoint sort of threw me for a loop. As my eyeballs came back into focus, I watched him unfold the same pocket knife and as he bent to retrieve another chile from the plant, I prayed it wasn't for me. Realizing it wasn't I thanked the great capsicum god in the Hatch volcano and considered crying. Once there, Teddie stashed his bike in the storage shed and they mounted the front steps of their new apartment together. She fumbled in her pocket for the key, her hands shaking, some part of her expecting to see the man in his big buy old jeep truck pull up at any minute. He doesn't even know you're gone, she thought, and finally found the key. The homes are built with quality construction materials. FALSE. For the most part they are. Except Jake did say to me in the case of the Armada home, due to time constraints. they ran out of the treated lumber they used to build the house, so the blue wood that is shown on TV as being used for mold prevention in a small area of the home is actually regular wood spray painted blue. I resumed my mission and approached the Shadow Bar. Shadow Bar is an unusual name that had nothing to do with the building itself. The walls were bright, white stucco with the front of the one-story building evenly divided by a massive black door with a small glass window centered about five feet up from the sidewalk. The few windows in the building were covered with shades and draperies that allowed no glimpse of what was happening inside. So there you have it. I have listed some of the more popular accessories for a Ford truck. Of course there are many more such as performance tuners and if you are going all out you can completely upgrade the suspension. That will be another post for another day however. Until then happy trucking my friends, hope to see you out at the truck shows.
