The build of my flag ship Black Pearl

Great trip so far. We had some hellacious wind last night and this morning at a Mine coming out of striped butte valley. We had to make a unplanned stop for the day in Shoshone. Wife isn’t feeling well. Hopefully she feels better tomorrow. Otherwise we head home early.
Service isn’t to good. I’ll have to upload photos later

Hope she's feeling better man...nothing worse than being on a trip and feeling under the weather...
 
Well this trip has made a turn for the worst. Cut it short because the wife is sick. But to top it off. One of the factory plugs in the new oil filter housing is now puking oil. Not sure how far I’ll be able to make it with this leak.

At this point I’d prefer no luck at all!!
But I guess my wife getting sick was a blessing in disguise. Otherwise we’d be out in the middle of Death Valley.

Didn't you lose an axle on your tent trailer in Verdi or Boomtown a few months ago too?

Wishing you better luck and safe travels
 
It was a brisk 18 degrees last night and the back set sucks to sleep in. I have a buddy that happens to be heading through this area going home, he’s bringing me the last thing I need. Hopefully I’ll be able to patch it up and start making my way home today.
 
The trailer, wife, kid and dogs are on their way home. A roll back should be here soon, to take the Jeep 200 miles north. Got someone heading south with a trailer to take me the last 190 miles home. Calling in all kinds of favors on this one.
