Tents, Trailers, And Tribulations

Will and I moved to New Mexico in a dump truck. We set up a tent in the high mountain desert and lived the next three months with little to do. Our plans of building a rammed earth house could not be realized. The mountain was made of rock, not dirt; and the money we set aside in a stock had plummeted. We had a Coleman stove and a cooler - ice was 20 miles away. The following four years were spent in an 8-foot wide trailer experiencing everything from rattlesnakes to crazy neighbors to a beautiful straw bale house.Martin, Sarah is the author of 'Tents, Trailers, And Tribulations', published 2004 under ISBN 9781413449198 and ISBN 1413449190.
