Every now and then there is w... in JV. We got some sat night. But, Bricker grilled meat like a trooper and we ate it, and we had as many people crammed into Kevin's motorhome as you could get playing cards until late. Good times.
The only wreck I heard of was on the way out there.....something about a pole at the gas station.

Broke a drag link near the top of Clawhammer, tried to drag it off the trail, left it there.
Thanks to the nice guys who got me back out there with a spare. Got it rolling again before dark.
Almost took out the door on the way out.

Had a great time, as always, though the w-nd from early Saturday afternoon til early Sunday a.m. made me even more grateful that I have friends with RVs... and friends with bench seats (which have become rare) in their trucks (took the poles out of my tent & let it lay there & suffer, and slept peacefully in the cab of Mark SidewaysStarion's truck).
I know there was a flop (the Scout), a snapped draglink (Travis), a destroyed Dana 60 front knuckle (Jeff), and some missing lug studs (Ben), but not too much else.
Saturday JohnX & Zack, their girls and I drove out to Giant Rock, and to the Integratron, for some mellow dirt time and looking at the weird things people do.

It was nice seeing some familiar faces. I am bummed i didn't get to see everyone, and was hoping to meet more of you.
we didn't get to the lake bed until noon, so everyone had already left for their trail runs. so we had some fun just cruising through the desert, and making some adjustments to the buggy.
i was able to finally teach my daughter how to use her 4wd in her wj. Even managed to get her stuck on a sand hill.
i think we will be bringing the camper next year, and coming out for the entire weekend.

Mike (Grimm) busted a side window. But maybe that doesn't count under the circumstances.

a bungee cord snapped and the hook hit the window from inside, but that happened before i left. i blew a sidewall but ben's buddy shadi plugged it up for me and i kept having fun... till the plugs blew out on the way home on the 10 freeway at 70mph.
good times, 2 days later and im still exhausted. I had a blast.

Umm, that tarantula looks like a goliath, definitely NOT from the region. How big was it in comparison to, say, a hand?

My rear window popped out and was holding by the defrost wires while going through the Whoops. Fun times!
I used my rear driveshaft for a rock grinder. Didn't break, but threw it a bit out of balance. Cracked a less than one week old fender flare. Other than that, it was a great time. Well, except for the W--d.

It turns out if you hit hard enough to taco a drag link, you also hit hard enough to knock a sector shaft loose. :doh:
