Funny how I was typing as Lee was posting. That's my Jeep buddies allright! To add to the announcement, I wish to have all my friends and new friends come and go Jeeping with us June 20 -25th. Weekends before and after, I'll be at your service . This meet is just that, a week of friends going Jeeping together, nothing more, nothing less. All who attend are responsible for your their actions, not me. That said, I'm going to try and find you some entertaining trails that you will enjoy. Here in the Hills, you drive on pavement, gravel, mud, trails, water crossings, rocks, just about everything. I wish to share my playground with you. Details will be added on accomodations later. Please ask me all the questions that are on your mind ( not Lee) and indicate that you wish to attend. That way I can plan. My home and grounds are open for free camping, portapotties, shop, hoist, tools, whatever, I'm here to be support to you. This year I will try and keep my wife from trying to feed all of you . I'll need help with this. She wants all of you to not lack in needs---------------Carol is the best person in the world and is a very good cook. This year her responsiblities have changed and she now can go with us. ( she had to tend to her ailing mom who has now passed on) We miss her , but she is in a better place now. So, let's go Jeeping huh? Let the discussion begin! Signed Oilleaker, Leaker, The General, or just plain John.

John,
Oh cool finally, the official BH announcement. I will be there along with my wife Becky and possibly 2 of our kids. I may need to ditch a few days and head into Pierre. Would you be willing to let my M38 and trailer camp out on your place a few days if those plans come to fruition? Brett |

John, I hear you on the meal thing. My 2015 BHR was my rookie year, didn't really know what to expect. Had a room at the Fleabag (sparse not even a coffee pot) and being a rookie left camping gear at home. I know better now. The evening offerings were splendid-only a fool would refuse that. Only Carol's benevolence stood between feast or famine. This year I plan to set up at the trailer lot behind Mom's with the big tent I had at the FCT for cooking and such, like to dutch oven cook, even fry BACON. Will still get a room at the Fleabag with railroad tie stairs, unless we're no longer welcome, seems one of our group polished his jeep with a room towel ,aint that right Lee, Tim? Still gotta meet the boys at the Hideaway for breakfast.

John, unless something unforeseen comes up Lori and I will be there. We will most likely be staying at the Elkhorn Campground again.

Hi John:
Thanks for the announcement. I'll be there with my Agrijeep for the duration, and I'll be camping at your place in my Alaskan camper on the back of my Dodge Turbo Cummins Diesel truck. Can't wait to have some more jeepin' fun! |

Happy Jeep Trails,

Wow, I'm happy to hear from my friends. Glad you want to go and play with Jeeps. Brett, no problem , I may need to upgrade some of my parts so maybe we should store it in the shop , up on the hoist. Rick, you know the drill, have at it. Glen, hope you can come. Fred, great! We have plenty of room for you. Tom you know the drill. This year our biggest problem is forcing my wife to stop trying to feed you all. She needs to go with us and just have fun. I hope to do some other restaurants in the evenings and we could even take Ellsworth the Deuce if you want. I'd be your designated driver. I sure enjoy just having you all here. Maybe I'll come up with some new challenges for you. Loudest fan was last year, we'll see. We have 6 months to get ready. John

John,
Ginny and I are on for 2016, but have a tent instead of living in the truck. We will set up wherever it is good for you. I'll rig up a rain cover this time! Terry |

Hey John,
Not sure yet if I'll make it but will be in touch. Tell Carol I am sorry to hear about her mom - always a sad stressful time for all. But I am happy to hear she will be joining you on the trail! Thank you for hosting this terrific event! Tom |

John, Nancy and I are planning to be there for the week. We'll camp in the big trailer again this year. I think Kate is also planning on being there. I'm thinking we'll be hauling two jeeps again. We're looking forward to more muddy adventures, but hope for no more disappearing steering wheels!!
You and Carol have our sympathies for the loss of her Mom. We hate to hear of anyone loosing a parent, but we are also glad that Carol will now be able to join us each day on the trail. So how big are you planning to grow the BHR??

John, I'll be there for the whole week, and I think Tiny will be too. I'll be staying in my trailer, so save me a spot. We may be coming up early, and maybe staying late, unless you're ready to run us all off by the end of the week! BW
