Weekend plans

I'm thinking of getting out and stretching the legs a bit for hopefully at least one day this long weekend, anyone else?

There is a 4WDABC maintenance run on Saturday, or perhaps go check out this deactivation up at Salsbury. The latter being a little more appealing as it's closer.

i'm also thinking of heading out again. the weather was beautiful last weekend and may be the same again.

Jeff here are a couple of pics of the highlights to get you motivated.

Not a problem, I'm not exactly an early riser on the weekends, and trying to get the kids out on time is always a challenge. 11 it is.

perfect. i'll bring some firewood in case we didnt make it to the beach.

Pretty awesome day. Met up with Sass in his 4 five oh, and Raz in his mini-mog at the Husky, then proceeded to head up Sylvester to check out this deactivated bridge on the way to Salsbury Lake. It's definitely doable, Raz made short work of it with his short wheel base. I thought about trying it, but will save it for another day.
We then proceeded to check out a very cool trail, that was very overgrown. Had a flare lit fire for hot dogs on the beach, then packed up and headed back.
I was perhaps driving a little too quick for one overgrown section, and failed to see a large tree limb, which severely bent up some of my Thule bars and damn near knocked the whole tent off the roof. One gutter bracket fif get knocked clean odff. It also bent up the gutters in a couple spots, but we managed to get it back on more or less straight and tightened it back up.
On the way down we drove up to the super notsosecretwaterfall to see what it looked like frozen. It was quite frozen, still flowing underneath though. The pond looked about 6" thick.
