Re: CO: run on 3/29?

Other than hillbilly jamboree mentioned above it was a good time. It sure would have been nice if the they'd moved over to let the other what 35+ people by that were all standing there watching them, I was beginning to wonder when the embarassment was going to kick in, since common sense sure as heck didn't have a place in their small group.

After the 2 hours of listening and watching the tool in green truck, with glass packs, rev his motor to over 8 grand and spin the tires endlessly while trying to pull his buddy uphill, hung up on a tree, I was beginning to think the only way we were going to get by was when they ran out of beer and needed to go buy some more.

What did it take? 5 minutes for someone to pluck him out after they "allowed" us to pass.

One of the guys in the rock buggy group even said, "with as many of us standing here, we could pick up the Jeep and carry it out."

To make it even better, down at the trail head as we were airing back up, the tool in the green truck drove by and reved his POS down to the main road, back firing and sputtering, as though to say look at me! Good grief what a truly educational experience that was, what NOT to do when wheeling.

Enough of that, Eric and Andii, thanks for your assistance down at the trail head getting that tree stump out of my beads.

Edit: I almost forgot someone, (forgive me I can't remember your name, Titanium built up rig "FJROCKS") thanks for helping me get back into the ruts on the way back down, right before that little tree stump I swore was a rock.

Athena, Bill, Gavin (I hope I spelled it right), Gene and Mike it was nice to meet you all.

Everyone else, it was nice to see you again, looking to forward to doing it again real soon (minus the hillbillies of course).

Wow, I kinda wish I had been able to come. I always enjoy watching idiocy in action. Makes me feel smart.

Re: CO: run on 3/29?

when they let us all by, one of the hillbillys ask if I was the blue FJ that was going to winch them out, I said no thats the other blue FJ. I did like how the green truck tryed to camouflage his windshield with that tree branch, so we couldn't see how big of in ass he was.

Re: CO: run on 3/29?

Nicole, our daughter did get some vid. She also took pics. We don't want to post the vid, do to the Wild Eyed Leaf eaters out there trying to close the trails because of these type of hillbillies.

We can show the vid at the next meeting for those of you that missed this run. Quite amuzing.

It was great to see all of you again. Cindy, Gavin, Matt, Mike, Jim, Diane and the rest I may have forgotten, it was nice to have met you. Hope we can all meet up again.

Jackie

Here are some more pic's







Once again thank you for the invite. It was great to get out. But it was more of a parking trip rather then a wheeling trip. Damn hillbillies...
