All this talk of "stealth camping adventures"  brings me back to my more
youthful days driving around Mexico in my green 63 split window
van, nicknamed "el chapulin".  My Mexican girlfriend at the time, Nela
Zuazua, and I decided to go for an overnight up in the Sierra in
Northern Puebla,
close to where we lived.  We ended up parking on the edge of some
cornfield at some ungodly hour of the night and after getting high and what
I remember as a night of endless pleasure rolling around in the back, we
fell fast asleep.  At the crack of dawn we were rudely rousted by loud
banging
on the van and voices.

Before we even had time to jump to, and get our cloths on, we saw the
withered faces of several toothless campesinos pressed up against the
fogged
up windows of the van, no doubt all the more pleased to see two white,
butt naked bodies in the back.  I still remember their huge smiles and
friendly
morning greetings as well as wondering at the time "what the hell do
these guys want" ?  Fortunately they were not the "machete wielding
types" and
were only curious as to what a "hippy van" was doing in their cornfield.
