I'm trying, I will say not looking good for the PIG to be ready after seeing the her sitting outside the shop Friday. IF able I may try and drive the BJ45 troopy that way like a hillbilly returning from Cali in the Grapes of Wrath.

Sounds good Jim! I hope we see the last of the holdouts there.

Compass! Even older school than Ron and Jeri's paper maps!

Say it ain't so...no blue pig and black smoke? I'll promise more Colorado whiskey.

Ford guy Now

Unfortunately I have more work than I can handle, both Ford's are parked right now with both pigs.

This is a good thing right now, look forward to seeing you in the future.

 

[Pigeaten]

Yep, you will be missed, what do they say about making hay?
My Dad told me I could get rich working half a day, did not matter which half you worked, first half or second!
Just a season to pay for Ford and Pig parts

Good for you, too bad for the rest of us who will miss you and Leslie. And the only two dogs I know who can drive a Pig.

From John, one of our NM trail guides...
"I'm looking for an inexpensive grille to temporarily adorn the front of my '86 FJ60 for the upcoming 2022 Pig Party - I can source the zip-ties separately ."

The burning question yet to be answered is whether a similar grille should be affixed on the front or the rear of Pig owner FJ55zen's air-cooled '68 VW bus, his planned mode of transportation since his 55 is under the knife? (Anxious to see that bus on 33s for the trails.)

And kudos to Ige Gustafson @nuclearlemon for pioneering the accessory zip-tied Pig grille on her 80 series at the Rico Pig Party.

Could that be Toltec Gorge?

Been out of touch for about three weeks with a death in the family and helping my son move from Albuquerque back to Denver for a new job. Probably time for an update.
Here's the latest list of attendees for Pig Party 2020 in northern New Mexico. Scheduled July 7-10 in Rio de Los Pinos campground just across the border from Antonito, CO. Nineteen rigs on the list. As far as I know 17 Pigs, a VW bus (Pig owner) and a 60 (one of our NM guides). Looks like at least 40 people. Probably the biggest PP ever. Any updates as far as number of members in your group would be welcome. Still looking for some regulars (@J Mack, @fj55-100, @PabloCruise, @bobm and @remy1974) and some who've mentioned attending (@greenbeast).

We’re planning three days of trail runs. Could be Thurs/Fri/Sat or Fri/Sat/Sun. July 7-10 as originally announced encompasses Thurs-Sun. Want to be sensitive to travel issues for those coming from afar. My suggestion would be to plan runs Thurs/Fri/Sat so folks could head home on Sunday. Bonnie and I, perhaps others, will be around at least Wed-Mon so could join folks who wanted an additional trail day Sunday. Plenty of opportunities in the area for that.

No sir. I have had a conflict with that weekend the last few years, and probably for the next few years.

Sorry if I didn't make that clear.

My July is usually 4th of July, open water swim race, Black Hills Cruiser Classic. The race and Classic they always put on the same weekends for easy planning.

It looks like it will be a great turn-out and a beautiful location - you all will have a fine time!
