SWEET!

Well, we had a small turnout for the CB tuning event - Dave & Suzanne, Me, Rachel, Ken and Russ.  Thanks to Dave and Suzanne for hosting and to Russ for bringing the SWR meter and the know-how! 

Leanne found a campground near Nashville that offers a shuttle to downtown

Now that is Sweet - how late do they pick up??

Well, it looks like it is being held at a club member's property, so we would not want to post this up as a "public" event, but I'm fairly confident that if you know a non-club member that was interested in coming along with you that would not be a problem... Russ, can you confirm?

Sounds Like a Plan!

If I was in town I would drop of a care packeg of Monster Enregy Drinks and Starbucks Gift cards.... Stay safe, buddy!

I would go... was going to propose this as our official event for June at the next meeting...

That was fast!

The weekend of Saturday June 4th and Sunday the 5th they are doing an event at Silver Lake Sand dunes that we might be interested in...

When I first saw the link for a first annual "Jeep Invasion" at the Dunes I thought it was just basically a marketing ploy to get a bunch of business in the area.  While it certainly is that still, I have Found that this is planned for the weekend where they do a "Dunes Blessing" which is actually in its 5th year I think and then I saw that they are doing a "Tunes, Brews & Dunes Festival" Saturday afternoon/evening with the actual blessing event scheduled Sunday at noon.  So, it seems like there is actually some cool stuff to do rather than it just being named Jeep invasion weekend and expecting us all to rush out there because the word Jeep is in the title of the event.

We don't have anything on our calendar for June Yet, though we may do the 4x4 class again the last weekend, so this might be a nice chance for those that can't make the July trip to go out as a group to the Dunes or an extra fun weekend the throw in for the summer if you want to do both since it is a good 6 weeks before the July Trip.

When I just posted that last one, I see that no one had posted up a spotted in all of 2015 - weird.  I guess we are a lot more geographically diverse that we used to be, so less chance of running into each other...

Alan came and picked me up in my Jeep to go back up to his place for the SuperBowl on Sunday and when we pulled in to his driveway - a black Jeep followed us in.  Turns out it was Adam Shoemaker from Unlimited Offroad (who lives just up the Street from Alan) who jumped out and said "I thought that was your Jeep!"  We wound up standing around chatting for 10-15 minutes in typical Jeeper Fashion.

Just another fun moment that I would not have had were it not for being a Jeep owner... I doubt too many Hyundai owners glance at another Hyundai from 1/4 mile back and think "that looks like Bob's Elantra... Let me follow him and say Hi"

How about 'em!? I was so awed by the first one (Portraits) I dashed to the computer to share it on our FB and it had likes and shares within a couple minutes... Then later in the game they had the second (4x4ever) spot.  After the very reverent tone of the first one, it took me a second to warm up to the jazzier tone of the second, but by the time they built to showing an actual Jeep Wave accompanied by the Lyrics "4x4 the wave that's how we say 'cheers' " I just about wanted to jump out of my chair and applaud. 

Jeep really knocked it out of the park in my opinion!  Which was your favorite?

Awesome I never thought a would be a calender model

An unlikely "Miss September" for sure... but the Jeep pic is cool.  And as long as we can keep Alan from sporting a speedo at Silver Lake this year we should be good for next year as well!

I think I am still sidelined for the next few weeks, but might be up for like the second or third weekend of March... Sunday the 13th maybe?  I think our march trip got pushed to april so this would work for a march trip... Doesn't get you out on the trails to satisfy your current itch, but you could always hit the mounds before the meeting sunday...
