Travel Day
May 27-28 I was no more than five miles N. of Presidio when I had a sudden blow out of my left front tire, pulling me to the shoulder of the highway immediately. I struck a reflector post, shattering the side view mirror and damaging the length of the right side of my car. The sleeve of the mirror showed the inside of the car since the right front window was open. I changed tires and resumed my trip but shortly had a gradual loss of power leading up the shallow incline of the Continental divide on Interstate Hwy 18 between Deming and Lordsburg, New Mexico. I made it to the Alamo Bluffs exit, then cruised back to Deming, going the 35 miles in 2 1/2 hours. I got my problem taken care of at a local garage (fuel filter again) the morning of May 28 and resumed my trip west.
