Day 6: A few bits and pieces

"Sunshine" the woman who fell off the truck fractured her arm in two places.  Fortunately there was a hospital in Calexico and even more fortunately she had a brother living in San Diego who was able to come and get her.  She is planning to meet us at the end in Florida.

John's nickname was "No Girth"-- don't ask and no-one uses it.  In fact, the nickname thing has pretty much gone out the window-- it just doesn't work with a group this big.  Bubba tried to christen Scott Bean as "Pork'n" , then "Refried" but neither took hold and Scott is just Scott.  He is greatly relieved.

Our "Minister of Liquid Refreshment"  (DHB for Downhill Bob) is stuck somewhere on the road so has not yet joined the trip.  Whoever is substituting for him is no connoisseur of beer and wine.  The first option was Bud Lite (you are right Steve, almost no-one would drink it) and two  boxes of wine "Sweet Chardonnay" and "Sweet Merlot" (whatever they are!).  In the past couple of days we have had Dos Equis, however, and that is well received.
