Thanks. You got all the good ones though. I decided to leave the camera work to you once we met up.

For those of you who can't tell those weeds were taller than the bottom of my window. I now have weeds stuck in Pinkie's suspension.

Brian: You sure you wanna go that way?
Me: Yea I know what's here I had it all mowed down a month or so ago.
BANG
Me: Woops.
*Back up*
Me: Forgot that one was there. Let's hope we didn't break anything.
Brian: Holy crap that's a big rock. *snaps picture of rock*

No damage done.

Brian did you get a picture of those 2 cops sitting behind the Circuit City waiting for everyone on their way out?

Just thought I'd throw out there that the show raised 1,700$ for the American Cancer Society or some such charity.

And Brian you got the picture looking down from the top of the hill?

I'd say it's pretty impressive that a little 4 banger Jeep with nigh on bald rears made it up there in 2wd.

Dave said Andy was there, but to be quite honest I wouldn't have known Andy if he punched me in the face.

And I met up with Dave and he gave me a set of batteries. Thanks, Dave!
I thought I said I had met up with James, he's like seven feet tall.

By the way, James was hanging out with his gear, which I see Brian posted a picture of in his post https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/8...ml#post7585379

Pete, you're welcome and I hope the batteries work out for you.

Nope. You only mentioned Aaron.

I hope they work out too. Thanks again.
