Matt's New Mexico (Formerly Airstream) Adventure

@Giles I still have too many knives.  I may have to entertain the idea of a virtual yard sale soon.

It actually isn't that out of the way. The DFW metro area has expanded a lot in the last 15 years or so, and Cleburne has become something of a suburb. Burleson is nearby, and it's moderately sized and fast growing.

I've run a lot of obstacle course races in Grandview and Glen Rose, which are nearby, too.  Actually, that reminds me- if you have time, you may want to check out Dinosaur World in Glen Rose.  I've never been, but it's supposed to be kinda fun.

Cool, is that where Pee Wee met Simone?

Hello. 

[Matt]

I’ll let you know…

@Matt:

@Paul9221 i did in fact have a pretty epic sale in the months leading up to out trip.  I sold an IHSH-87, a pair of IH-666LBs that I regret, and a bunch of other hot items.  I kept my 666XHS, 777V&S, 777D, 634SR, TW666N, Beatle Busters and 666ii.  My nylon jacket and my denim zip up.  About 10 or 11 IH and TW shirts including my 33, 64, some UHFs and 178, 4 belts, about 16 pairs of shoes/boots about 50 or 60 tees, not IH and various assorted socks( underwear, sweatshirts etc.  not bad for such a small space.  I’ll try to take some pics for you later.

Man, you kept way more than I had imagined!  I mean, I could maybe imagine a way if it was just you in there, but with a wife and two kids?  I gotta see your storage setup!

[Matt]

I’ll get some pics tomorrow in the daylight.  For now you’ll have to enjoy this Hunter’s Moon over Lake Whitney.  Happy Halloween!

@Paul9221

Some of it’s in the laundry and some of it’s in vacuum seal bags in a plastic storage bin in the truck.  But for the most part it all fits in half of this space…

[Paul9221]

Brilliant!  Thanks for sharing that.  I'll show this to my wife the next time she says my closet wouldn't fit in a tiny home

That is -impressive, @Matt.  ??? And 4 people? My hats off to all of you. I'd have murderous thoughts in a week.
Maybe less.

A woman from Kentucky told me to talk slower, I don't understand y'all.

When people walk by and see the MD license plate you’d think it said Mars instead.  We are a curiosity to the locals with our slick duded up city ways.  If we can make it through Election Day without an uprising or secession I’ll be content.  Of course depending how it goes, I could be the one wrecking shit up in here.  I can show them how we do civil unrest in Baltimore.

Let’s hope it won’t come to that, Matt.

I’m keeping my chin up and staying open to one of the only two options available to me.  And one of those is ex patriotism.

We haven’t been hiking in a long while.  Cleburne State Park was a great way to get ready for Big Bend Natl Pk.  We’re staying in the park for that one, our first Natl Park camping.  In the meantime today was a great way to experience some hiking that was a lot different than what we’re used to…
