Summer plans, wheeling, working on the trucks, fishing with grandkids and maybe a little camping from time to time.

Although I may want to start with kids before I jump into grandkids

Justin, almost every trail we did in Colorado would have only taken a stock vehicle, 4x4 is likely a must most of the time, so if you are giving it some serious thought, get ahold of me and we will talk about it.

Well Jamie and I talked about it last night and she didn't shoot it down right off the bat, which is usually a really good sign

We will hammer out the details of the trip with ya' this weekend. Thanks!

I still can't beleive we met a mini van coming done one of the trails...

Never thought about Denver area. It's not that far. Someone on here was from CO Springs area... that would be a good place too.. if there was some good trails there. Someplace close $ is going to be a little tight for me.

I'll kick around the idea of going. It depends on how much vacation time I have and what finances look like in a few months.

Doesn't matter to me :-) Carolyn is deffanitely not going, so where-ever is fine. The only problem with St. Elmo is that I might have a family reunion there next year... Darn might have to go 2 years in a row.

Digging through old threads today and found this one, liked it quite a bit!

What's everyone's plans again for this summer? Jamie and I have quite a bit of work we want done on the house. New front door, windows, central heating/air and I want to finally finish up the garage to my liking.

my summer plans include trying to survive the ADA upgrades to ATMs due by end of April?, working on the Binder, attending some car shows(hopefully with my parents), getting some wheeling in, two trips, one to SD, the other to H.I.T.R, and possibly moving to a larger house, somewhere in the mix.

Plans for summer... Work work work.

As for the truck its really up in the air but an drum to disc break axle swap is being considered strongly as is a re gear to 4.30 or 4.59 so I can safely run 33's without blowing the tranny.

But even more pressing is the need for a new computer which is looking at about $1500 given current prices but if I build it then I should be good for another 6-7 years maybe even 10 if I can push it.
