Upon arriving in Chaparral at the Capps, Ed and I proceeded to unloaded the pickup box trailer, onto the flatbed.......including the 5oo + pound air compressor. After we had that done, we found that we didn't need the flatbed to haul metal, so it was back into the box trailer with the a/c. Fortunately Ed had a electric winch that we used to pull it up hill into the trailer. Had to use a little ingenuity to attach the winch and some boards for a ramp, but we got it done. With all the other supplies, clothes, paint, chairs, tables, pipe, tires, luggage, etc., we had a hefty load. The suburban pulled the load reasonably until we hit the mountain road to Cuatomec and beyond.......down to five mph on the steep inclines, and all of a sudden a big popping sound and away we went. Determined later the catalytic converter was plugged, and it must have broken loose,  as we instantly had lots of power. The next morning after arriving in Guachochi, we took it to Nathans Capps friends shop, and had it removed.
We had spent the night in Cuatomec, about half way in the journey, and then drove on to Guachochi the next day. Arrived in time to unload most of the supplies and then to evening Church service. For those that know him, Tomas preached.....I guess it was a good message! I sure do wish I had some knowledge of the Spanish language.......is it to late to teach an old dog new tricks????
