Yup, ain't life grand!  Those that love our old Jeeps will love us even more.  Those that don't love us, well, let's just say there really isn't much they can do about it, as long as we don't break the law.  That's what it all boils down to. 

jpet, Thanks for the pics from years gone by.  I do miss those informal fun filled days with small groups of Jeeps.  But in the next breath I'd tell you that I'm glad that we've been able to grow the FCT so that many new faces can join the list of participants.  I enjoy sharing my valley and mountains with folks who are not lucky enough to live amongst such beauty and opportunity.  And I really thank Bruce and Ron for stepping up to help me make this experience happen for so many.

It's like summer/fall camp for Jeeps! Yes a lot of jeeps but we are so thankful that you share your time and the beauty of the land with some of us folks that only get to do this once a year.

You all are awesome!

I'll keep coming as long as I can and as long as the tradition continues.

A lot of work putting this together but we are so thankful...........

Thanks a lot jpet.  You could have just posted the still of the Mighty Mite, but you had to do the whole page which included the video of the Mighty Mite towing me home???? Angry OH the embarassment!!!  Embarrassed LOL

But I have to admit, the video at the top of that page showing you flying over the bumps and flipping your spare tire way up in the air is a once-in-a-lifetime event! Wink

I bet I’ve watched that flying tire 50 times. It still amazes me.

I bet Bam Bam would not be as talented at General Willys. At the spare pitch and catch. Bam Bam having the squishy springs and all.

Tumbleweed,  If you look about midway down page 3 you will see someone shooting a smokepole.  Its a black powder gun!

Look closer.....    BW
It is NOT a Jeep Willys! It is a Willys jeep.

Happy Trails! Good-bye, Good Luck, and May the Good Lord Take a Likin' to You!
