Joe Friday:

That's some extreme low elevation jeepin' going on there. Heck, it must be only a few feet above sea level!  Granted, it's not as extreme as Death Valley, which is actually below sea level, but its awfully close for being next to an huge body of salty water.  Watch out for Big Waves so you don't get swept away . . . or become stuck in the sand and swallowed up and carried off by High Tide.  There's so much danger along the seashore: sharp seashell fragments, stinging jellyfish, seaweed tangling up in and stopping the drive shafts, SHARKS! . . . so be aware and drive carefully.  Wink

Safely at 5,280 feet among . . .

Hi Fred.

Wireless is sketchy out here so JPET was kind enough to post one of my 5 videos. You are at 5,000 times the elevation I am.

I include a video of the leaf that turned.

Actually I have a selectable locker and I'm glad I have it. that track around the field has some tight muddy turns and the locker made it harder to make the turns. I actually ran better open/open other than that hill climb.

It would appear your grandson has a lot of his gpop's penchant for wheeling...no matter how crappy it happens to be! Looks like good times! Merry Christmas!

Now that is good quality time spent with your grandson. He has all the makings of another Jpet! May God have mercy on us. I loved his comments watching you. At his age! Watch out. I'll bet you are proud. Loved the video. John

I turned a 10 mile trip to walmart into a 40 mile joy ride with a walmart stop... and then took the Mrs to walmart...

The long way

The wife and I took a jeep for our annual cemetery run yesterday. Thought it was a good way to show our respect and help folks keep their minds on what the Holliday is for. Was a great day.

Life is GOOD!!!
