    I made it in a magazine!

    Woo Hoo! I made it!

    March 2009 Petersen's 4Wheel & Offroad "Wheeling Alaska's Boulder Creek Trail"

    It doesn't mention anything about the Vehicross but it has a cool picture showing me about to decline down a hill on the trail with an overlook of the trail beyond. It's a picture from the back that shows off my NASA sticker, and the little words across my back window say "I got your Jeep thing... And now it burns when I pee!"

    It also shows that my brake light is out lol.

    Thought I would share,

    Wait, wasn't my 15 seconds of fame... It's all hers!

    I can't get too excited over it because I am related ... sickos! :P

    Yea... I know I did not point out which one ... She can already be found a bit too easily via google, and not all of the rest of the family is aware just yet. Therefore, no name will be posted.
