Field Report: You CAN Change A Tire In A Kilt

See, kilts are for most anything.

How'd you pump up the tire again??

Hey MacDougal, welcome aboard. Sorry I missed you down in Flag. Did meet Matt (Ialtog) at the Earth Day gig. He recognized me...I'd have had no clue...but cool to meet.

Will take you up on a lemonade next time we can hook up in Flag or up here. Ain't no milk toast...just the booze was killing me and I couldn't control it so I quit back in '89. Nothin' again them that enjoy it.

Don't be no stranger...we have a LOT of kilties in AZ on this board.

Guessing you'll be at the games there in Flag on July 21....?

It depends on whether I can find summer work up here. I'm from Tucson, and attending nursing school at NAU. Last summer I went home, and worked at TMC for the season, but I'm hoping I can find something in Flag for this summer. Spending the winter in Flag and the summer in Tucson is the wrong way to spend your year!

And I'm not much for the booze myself -- just don't care for it. So lemonade -- or root beer -- it is!

Crack me up! MacDougal, you're gonna need a LOT of kilts...hot weather kilts and cold weather kilts...

Utilikilts used to make a Medical White UK Original. I got me one off the scratch and dent list. You could wear one to work.

Don't forget to put in your two years on the rez after your graduate, or up here at Lake Powell Medical Center to get your student loan forgiveness deal for rural service. Then you'll have lots of extra kilt money.

I'm talking to Matt Newsome about a "MacMedic" kilt... and I'm obliged to work for TMC for four years after I graduate -- one for each year of school they've paid for. So it's back to Southern Arizona after May 2008, which in turn means I can get away with mostly light weight, summer style kilts.

I actually didnt lose that much air, and since I was on sand and gravel I just aired down the other tires to match for better traction. (from 34 psi to 21 psi)

I do have a small 12v compressor in the jeep however, along with the aforementioned plug kit, recovery strap, shovel, etc...
