Its late but I just have to put this down. I have a friend who always goes out exploring alone. We were to go to the sand dunes today, But he had been MIA since friday. He showed up this evening with a chilling tale. He left after work friday around 4:00 PM and went driving up a canyon that leads to the uncompahgre plateau. where he got his 4x4 chevy van stuck in four feet of snow. He spent friday nite in the van. He ran the heater off and on during the night till it ran out of gas. then he started walking out at 7:00 in the morning. he walked all day until about 5:30 PM when he was found by a group of snowmobile riders cold wet and hungry. They gave him a ride 20 miles back to thier truck. If they had not come upon him when they did, I am sure he would not have survived another night.Sometimes people put to much trust in thier rigs, And think that they can go anywhere at any time.


Well on my way to becoming that eccentric old man in every town.(crazy as a s#@thouse rat) With a yard full of desireable old vehicles that tells you, Sorry they're not for sale..... Someday I'm going to fix them.
