had a great breakfast with you all.

i started at Afton as i was heading to vegas on the second water crossing (bridge) we came across a stuck F150 the wife said i see why you need a winch so i got the strap out the F150 guys did not think a jeep could pull a truck out "WRONG" video starts of at the first bridge of course i took the hard line (look at the size of the shovel in the guys hand)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-1LoNa3E8s the wet river bed was a lot of fun and we visited spooky before stuffing ourselves in vegas










see you all next time
