2017 Theme?

Post by REDONE »

What should we do for a theme this year? I know we kind of waited until we started thinking of t-shirts before we considered it last year. Here's my initial suggestions:

"Drive your life away" so we have Eddie Rabbitt for a theme song. Especially the "windshield wipers" line since I'm predicting rain for the whole time we're up there.

"Overland? Over whatever!"

"Every Run is a Parts Run!"

Just some initial offerings to see what comes of it.

Grizzly Locker Rear
4" front spring drop, 5" rear shackle flip
Chevy style HEI (ECM controlled)
Dolphin "Shark" gauges in a fancy homemade oak bezel
3/4 resto, rotting faster than I've been fixing it.

"Every run is a parts run" make me snicker.

Those are all pretty good. I am not that creative but I will give it some thought.

In the still of the night I feel my heart grow heavy,
Sitting on the side of the road.
Pushing real hard to get the Wag to Ouray,
I think I made the motor blow...

Maybe a play on the fact the FJ's are going to be there?

If we do tee shirts might mention that this is the 15th anniversary run.

Is it? I joined IFSJA in 2002 and didn't make it to an Invasion until 2004, but I though the CFSJA folks had been doing this further back than that. I have no idea how to search the archives of the yahoo FSJ-list, but I know that went back farther than IFSJA too. I'd be pretty stoked to know that I was at the third invasion! :-bd

I joined IFSJA in 2001 but didn't do much wheeling. My first infvasion was the Agave year. 2007.

Oh, and I remember going to the very first IFSJA (loosely) organized invasion. I do remember that the Colorado folks had been doing it for a few years before that but the first one was in 2002 if memory serves.
