Saturday - Didn't break anything..

From Q via email - Late Saturday night





Today we did the fins-and-things trail. Mostly slick rock, some steep (45 degree) climbs a couple of steeper drops and some fair sized ledges to climb over..



We (Mike M and Nichole, Eric and Scott, JL and Jeff B and Carlane and I) had a good trip. Didn’t break anything and arrived home before dark… Carlane did about 1/3 of the driving in the 88 and did a great job on her first time driving off road…


Last night was the vendor night with 15 or 20 vendors (including our own Eric231) set up card tables and displayed their wares.. Great Basin had a cool diff modification that keeps the ring gear from stripping because it flexes by drilling a sleeve at right angles to the ring gear and installing an adjustable pin. It was also supposed to be some sort of swap meet but only one guy showed up with anything interesting . I scored a set of NOS mudflaps with the yellow lettering for the 88 pu AND a really cool 6000 lb Braden ELECTRIC winch. Total cost $200

Bill C had some t-shirts made for Carlane and I to commemorate our St Louis
adventure …

They were a BIG hit…
