Derek's Story
Life
Well I went to college in a gas stop hell hole in New Mexico, NMT for 3 years when I realized that Env. Eng. was a bore. Went to UNM and got a ME degree. Finished my M.S. from Georgia Tech. Married and have 2 boys and a girl. I sure miss the U.P., New Mexico ain't bad but its brown and dry (only bushes and no trees except for in the mountains which ain't far). I sure miss trees and green, which explains why I'm always Jeeping/Camping in Colorado. 20222 here and the oldest is finishing his MS at 25, second kid at 22, and the last girl at 18 is going off to college. Brother in law passed away and left two little kids behind so we are taking guardianship of them and now back to have a 5 and 6 year ol...Expand for more
d boy and girl in the house...but God's plan is easier to see then the empty nesting plans I had. I have a big JK Rubicon on 37's, wife and son have jeeps as well. Son and I do a lot of rock crawling here year round in NM and going up to Colorado a lot and Moab sometimes. Was planning on welding up my own overlanding trailer but recent turn of events has put it off a bit...camping with no people around is sure appealing. Also a perk of NM besides rock crawling year round is my 25 year old and I get to go snowboarding a lot. Need to train up the two young-ins so the wife can get a saturday off from the littles.
Working up at Los Alamos National Labs. Good money, job, travelling, but the commute sucks.
