I personally had a total blast today. Pushed the Jeep a little more than normal, resulting in shredding my front driveshaft boot and puncturing the outer wall of one of my tires. That aside, I had a great run. There were a couple of torn boots on todays run (seems to be common on these trails ), but that is about the extent of the damage... I did get high centered like a MOFO (I'm sure the pics and laughs are to follow), thanks again Harry for getting me off that one!

I didn't get too many pictures myself, but snapped a few with my phone.

Here is Harry going up what I have named "Horrible Idea"


It doesn't go anywhere, just enough room at the top to turn around and come back down


We ended up getting dumped down by the AM/PM off Deer Springs exit (who knew ).



This wasn't the end of the day. A few needed to hit the road and parted ways. AND THEN there were six (rigs)...

We decided to go hit up Stone Brewery for some food and beverage, but when we got there, it would have been a 2hr wait for a party of 15. They were doing some sort of Sour Festival. We decided we just couldn't wait that long, so we all loaded back up and headed to Hooters of Oceanside, where we suds'd and grubbed post run. Topped that off with a 6 dirty/dusty rig parade down by the beach, if you could have seen the heads turning, and ALL THE JEEP ENVY!!!

Can't wait to see all the pics because I know there are some good ones.

Mitch, thank you SO much for dinner, and the tasty treats that I found in my cooler when I got home...

Yeah, I don't think the dealership will cover mine because it is at such an angle from the lift.

Nice pictures brother. I already stole them. Thanks for the driveshaft info. Hope to see you and the wife on some more trails when I fix the driveshaft.
