Monday, July 24, 2006 – Grants, New Mexico

At 7:00, Bob walked over to the mechanic’s garage to talk to the mechanic about our car.  When he came back, we decided to walk down the street to the grocery store.  When we walked by the garage, we noticed that our car was in the garage.  We stopped to talk to the mechanic.  He told us that we had a bad alternator.  He had put in a new alternator and was charging the battery and then he would check to see if anything else was wrong with the car.  We continued on to the grocery store where we got some groceries that we needed.  When we walked by the garage again, the mechanic said that some wires needed to be replaced.  When we returned to the camper, we got the camper ready to go.  At 11:30. Bob walked over and got the car.  When he returned, we started hitching the car to the camper and we left Cortez again.  We drove to Grants, New Mexico where we stayed at KOA.  After supper, the wind started blowing and then it started raining.
