Put the elderly FX01 back in the box and fired up the ZS-3. Figure I’ll take it to Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. Why am I going to New Mexico? New Mexico is in the f-ing desert. I hate the desert. Everything sticks, stings, or bites. Sand gets in your teeth. Your skin flakes off. Miles and miles of miles and miles of nothing. Well, at least it is not Arizona. Where, in addition to desert they also have wacko politicians.
I am reminded that the saddest most depressing book I have ever read, The Road by Cormack McCarthy was inspired by a trip to El Paso. El Paso isn’t far from Truth or Consequences. Neither is Area 51. Nor Trinity Site. Desert.
