Back to Albuquerque
I hitch hiked to Sorocco thanks to Mr. Tucker McHugh. Tucker is a native Pie Towner. He spotted me in the parking lot, and took a chance on both me and his vehicle. We made it to Sorocco. He stayed with me until the final leg to Albuquerque was resolved. Thank you, Tucker. Stayed in Sorocco for the night and took the DAV van to the VA Hospital in Albuquerque. Advised them that I was not seeking medical care but only the ride...they were very supportive. I took a city bus plus a transfer to where my car was located and am now staying in the Holiday Inn Express updating this journal.Many wonderful experiences were had during this trip. Reawakened a deeper appreciation for the many wonderful things I often take for granted. Well worth the effort.
Tomorrow I will send stuff home that I won't need from this point and head for Grants to see how I can support the team.
