A group of us from JK-Forum went for a run at 59th Street in Oklahoma City. Some folks from MilJeepers also joined us. Afterward we had a great picnic and grilled some burgers at Optimist Park. That got the attention of the fire department, who told us we could only use gas (the fireman said it had been sent out by e-mail the night before because I had checked the online Forestry Dept postings right before we started grilling and it said charcoal was okay--besides, the winds were dead calm despite 50 MPH forecasts! So we put out the charcoal and got my gas grill. Then the fire department returned an hour later, said they'd had another complaint, and that they would talk to the lady who was calling them in and let her know we were okay. LOL.

Here are a few pic's. The rest are on my FB page at http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2091687&id=1260697505&l=6710ccb589. Ryen, son of RCJunkie, shot many of the pictures after I headed out to the park to claim squatter's rights at the pavilion.

Woodweavil--with NO front drive shaft!!


My favorite pic ...


All pictures after this shot by Ryen ...

Not quite all of the Jeeps and peeps. We had one getting a new u-joint, and a couple who stayed with him while he worked.


Definitely a family event ...




Ah yes, busted u-joint ...


Woodweavil's other Jeep ...


Going down!

 

Love the Waggy

Do you know if he is on the IFSJA forum?

Great photos, looks like it was fun.

 

Sorry, I don't know.

 

Buster, were did you find that old dinosaur? Looks good

 

How'd he break the u-joint?

 

I don't know for sure, but this was after running down the creek then a hard turn to reach the top of a bit of a steep hill. I'd guess he did it while coming up that.

 

Cool pics bud.
