I know it seems a bit stuborn and possibly missing out on some things but just not worth the BS. Besides I hate the format :P

Trying to keep it over here also. Back in the day it was so much easier starting here and copying to there. Not my circus.

Well, for me, it is getting down to the wire... literally. I have a running vehicle I have to finish wiring by next week. Need lights, signals, horn, windshield wiper... hopefully the blower motor and heater controller working... Then there is all the shakedown stuff that will shake down/out. And tires... need tires.

It is not going well, so I am going to have to bow out. Best wishes.

Hope all share stories and pictures! I was planning on making an appearance but ended up stuck in Florida for work. June-August in Florida is a very good reminder of WHY we moved to CO in the first place! Absolutely miserable here..
One day I will wake up and realize that my jeep is complete...one day, I just know it.

Yeller I was so looking forward to meeting you. You were kind enough to gift me a rear diff cover which was much appreciated. Please post more pictures and sorry I'll be missing this most excellent trip. I will be there for the next one.

Thanks for the compliments, had a great time. Do tentatively have next year on the calendar!

Pic from today, got up early and did Imagene Pass and Ophir Pass and headed home. Need to try and get 4 more hours yet today.

Just got home from this year's get together.

I went to Montrose many more times than I wanted to.
I did fewer runs than I had hoped
My rig was again cursed by Ouray.

What a great time! I had a blast! Friday was cool. A group picture,'car show' and a pot luck and raffle to top it all off.
It was super fun seeing so many rigs in the same place.

Thanks to all involved in getting this put together! I know how much work goes into an event, thank you. I know I had a great time and didn’t talk to anyone that wasn’t.

Any one have pics from the event on Friday that they would like to share? I need a few more for an article I'm writing, you can have photo credit and will be some free promotion for next year.

I had a great time for my first visit to Ouray and meeting like minded people and some cool rigs
I want to thank Gabe,Sean, Kevin and any others that helped me out of Engineers Pass. Hopefully the damage isn't too bad but I dont have a lot of hope
Tomorrow we may face destiny, we may fight and die and fall to the fires of perdition, but tonight is ours, and we drink and make merry.
