Unacceptable.

Sorry guys... I've had a messed up stomach ever since the airport sushi I had on Thursday. I didn't wanna miss everyone, but there's no way I could hang for the entire day. I hope everyone had fun.

 

[DesertLake]

All good. I got hung up for a while but we got through. More later.

How did the trip go? I spent the day terra scaping.

 

[DesertLake]

Good! I need new tires but I already knew that. I got stuck in snow, we winched me out then took a better route. I need to get the pics off Lisas phone. Then I got siddeways on ice on the dirt road into town.

Sideways in an all-wheel drive vehicle... that's impressive! You really need new tires.

Pigs are cuter when they're covered in mud!

 

[DesertLake]

I tried using my wife's phone for photos, couldn't see the screen, so sadly got a lot of videos of my feet instead of pictures of rigs. Next time I'll remember the camera bag. That said, I did get a few good ones. So here's the first few minutes of the trip...

Then this happened...

 

[DesertLake]

Looks like everyone scolded me and we got on our way
We stopped at the junction, admired the view, and decided to take the easy, graded, reasonably flat Ophir Grade road down to VC.

Not pictured: my spinout on Ophir Grade road.

My '74 has the flat hood, but I also have one like yours in the parts bin. Decisions...

Even off brake she didn't want to straighten out.
I definitely hit the ice faster than I should have.

Ohhhh man, that piggy is beautiful.

Ohhhh man, that piggy is beautiful.

Yes - yes it is.

 

[sahelzer]

Yes - yes it is.

Thank you both for the compliment on my pig. It’s been 20 year journey to get to where I’m out wheeling it. Enjoying the club and the land cruiser enthusiasm.

20 years! My going on three years doesn't seem very long now @hairy_apple!

We are happy to have you in the club... even if you are forcing me to start thinking about how I am going to get and keep a 55 now!
