At one point or another the whole family has worked for the San Juan Timberwrights carpentry shop making timber frame houses. Luckily the owners, Tammy & Mike, are super cool and have let us all use their shop to work on the car. We came up this month to help finish it and then get on the road to Taos. I’ll eventually help reupholster the interior but in the meantime I just crash in on bro-time a lot and hang out. Speaking of bro-time: evidently the San Juan Timberwrights is a large part of the Arboles community and every day at 4:30pm the shop shuts down and they all have “brew-time”. Men come out of the woodwork to have a cold beer from the Durango Ska brewery and shoot the shit for a minute. It seems such a romantic aspect of small town life to me since we never did that back home, and it happens every day like clockwork.

The beer comes out of a “kegerator”—a freaking brilliant idea! They modified an old fridge to accommodate a keg and they attached a tap to the side for easy access refills. Beer mugs are kept iced in the freezer and every month they all chip in and get a new keg. Brilliant, I do say.
