    So Cal fall desert trip

    I cant wait for the next trip and I promise I will stay more than 24hrs next time! Just bad timing with the new baby and the wife being sick. I tried getting Will's fire walking picture but there was too much delay on the camera. Did you hear about the guy that was killed on Saturday while we...

    I made it home safe and sound.We had a great time, I had to cut out early to get back home to mama. I underestimated how cold it would be and spent all night shivering and half awake so I am pretty tired. Have lots to do at home so here are some pics.

    So Cal fall desert trip

    I think Friday morning would be best for me. I'll be leaving the wife behind with a brand new baby so it would be pushing my luck if I asked for 3 nights away.

    I'll pick you up at Burbank airport and drive you back after the trip. Only 30 minutes from me. I'll even tow my M1009 along for you to drive.

    Mike, today is the first I had heard you moved away, sorry to hear that. At least now you can go play with DMA251 and his monster of a truck. We will be sure to put a few coldies back in your honor and take lots of pics, I was looking forward to playing with your mule :( .

    So Cal fall desert trip

    Welcome Thovis! Was that you at the Sant Clarita 4th of July parade with your family in the Jeep? I had the 2 axle M35A2 if you remember seeing it. Your vehicle will be fine and more than likely go more places than the big trucks. I brought my motorhome and Blazer on the last trip so I could...

    So Cal fall desert trip

    Im about 50 miles south of Bakersfield if you wanted to continue down the 5 and hook up with me or just shoot down the 101 to the 126. There is a guy in Bakerfield who wanted to come to the last one but had truck troubles, I cant remember his name though.

    I'll make my schedule work for whenever everybody decides is the best weekend. Thurs night would be a good time for me to leave also.
