    Kirk got deep strapping me out! Apparently sand, water, and mud create a nice soup that equals stuck.
    I will have some pics up tomorrow once they finish uploading...slooooowwwwwwly!

    Was a great day though. Had lots of fun. Weather was in the 70's and sunny. I think we got 1 more hooked and heading to Moab and an old time Moaber at least thinking of making a return!

    It was actually pretty cool...Kirk got Billy out, then Billy drove around and pulled Kirk out. Now that's buddies!

    Think we definitely hooked Mike! Would be great to see Kirk come to Moab too.

    Weather was spectacular today, and we had a blast!

    Forgot to mention...

    Had the Ranchos set at 4/4 for off-road yesterday, first time off-road with the bump stops cut down. Made a huge difference. No more constant SLAMMING down with a jolt in the rear. Had a lot of bouncing when I went over the rocks....BUT WAY LESS SLAMMING! Just amazing. Maybe I'll turn them up to 6 or 7 next time and see how the bouncing is.

    Alright, finally got all my pics loaded....so here we go.

    Met up at the Rock Springs Cafe for some mom & pops style cooking. The VX's were still dust free at this point (hey, I even rinse mine off!).

    From L to R...Me, Zu4Two, VXKat, and MHill

    Apparently when water combines with sand and muck it becomes a smelly stew...





    ...you get stuck, break out the tow straps, Kirk comes to the rescue, gets stuck getting me unstuck and then I get to return the favor!
