I played in band called 4x4. We played at a bar called the Top o'The Hat. There was literally nothing there in town. The surrounding desert scenery is wildly beautiful. Only a bar, 2 gas stations and a few rafting/lodging businesses resided there. During the day, members of the band and i took a short drive to the Goosenecks of the San Juan River-
I also met up with a gal whom i used to go to high school with. Her and her husband ran a Texaco gas station in Mexican Hat. She looked very bored and somewhat homesick. I heard later she divorced and came back to Farmington, couldn't adjust to life in the lonely barren desert. Now i heard there are nice mtn bike and ATV trails. Maybe it's not so bad anymore....
