.that'll be my (hopfully) maiden voyage. river road after it rains is one of those rides...:drool: can't wait to brake her in.
if you would like to see more I will need to down load them. But this is what keeps me sane.
Ok but first a funny story. When we pulled in to the camp ground everybody was talking about the Bear that was at the dumpsters and the rangers chased off. So we get set up and my brother and I took my dog Bear down to the lake to fish. So we are fishing and Bear is running around up in the trees behind us when my brother sees two guys with a dog comming our way so he says look where is Bear. I don't see him so I start yelling BEAR BEAR well you should have seen these guys faces they thought I say a bear and turned around and got out of there real fast. I thought my brother was going to die laughing. so more pics
that other people don't want anymore! We took our oldest son along and had a blast! I got myself a Resistol, straw cowboy hat for a buck, a like new 2 burner Coleman camp stove and a full bottle of propane for 7 bucks, a handfull of fishing poles for 3 bucks, and oh ya, a storage tote full of race car goodies like a 5" Autometer Monster tach, and 3 different sets of oil and water temp gauges and some other odds and ends for 40 bucks! It's the simple things...
Looks like a lot of good times! I've been sloowly collecting my camping supplies this year.. but like you guys, money has been tight.. My wife and I chose to turn away from the big money I was making as a pipline inspector, although it is how I was able to build my CJ7 in just a few months, I was just gone from home way too much.. in the 15 months leading up to this decision, I had slept in my own bed less than 20 times.. I've taken about a $2000 a week pay cut, and that is so very hard to adjust to.. had to let go of my baby, '07 Megacab dually.. and my wife's very nice and plush '07 Chrysler Aspen. Money is tight but I'm able to keep my Harley, my home, and my marriage.. I have a pretty nice CJ7 that still needs a paint job, and I was able to pick up another CJ5 recently, so life is still pretty good.. I have my eye on an older class C motorhome for about a thousand bucks, and then we can tow my old speed boat to the lake.. It takes a little longer to save for the things we want, but being home every night with my wife, is worth way more than the material things I've lost this year.. we're happy again!
Our get away this last weekend, was to take a couple hundred bucks and a tank of gas, and hit our states annual Hwy 141 garage sale! About 70 miles of
It was kind of interesting cause I dont think about "being safe" to much when Im headed to a campground less than an hour away. That was until after I got there. We always tent camp and up till this year we used this tent.
I get it, I'm a Jeep owner and ad-block detectors kinda stink but ads are needed on this site. This is a CJ site, all the ads are set for autos (some times others get through.) I cannot make them just for Jeeps but I try.
