All's well in Edmond, Oklahoma

Rob made it to my place and was relaxing in the driveway in front of his 45 when I got there this evening. :popcorn: He drove through some heavy rain from TX panhandle to my place, and said he got showered every time the wipers came together! By morning his new "seal in a tube" will be cured enough to keep him dry for the remainder of the Roadtrip. We had a short but great visit since I was late getting home tonight. He said he would pull out for KS in the AM whenever he woke up- not sure of the time. What a great guy and rig! Best of luck with the trip Rob. :cheers: Keep us posted mudders.

Good Times

Thanks to everyone for posting my where abouts via phone messages, So far this trip has OUTSTANDING !!!!!! Yes I will be posting some pics but dont expect much , just think of driving a 45 / 57 mph in the rain holding a camera ( aint gonna happen :grinpimp: ) I have taken some once I got to where I was going the big push was getting from state to state. So where do I begin I want to get into detail on each stop so that will have to wait. The people here on mud have been fanatstic each stop has been worth the trip I am in Osage City now and looking forward to relaxing the rest of the night , EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THIS THANK YOU and the 45 is running great :steer: More later

trip

I really need to start some folks before I leave for TCCC today let start with Onur aka Beno on the mud board. I had driven over 13 1/2 hours the first day just under 800 miles to get to New Mexico. I was burnt out to say the least and the directions I had printed were not perfect. well a few phone calls later we hooked up and I followed him back to his pad to settle in. THANKS BROTHER !!! The man has alot going on right now but still took the time to make sure i had a place to crash. After getting some dinner we headed back and I was ready to fall out. I think it was about 10;30 and up at 0500 am to start another day. Onur Thanks for everything
















also everyone i have stayed with received one of my Road Trip T-Shirts
