Yard work, beer, BBQ food, playing with the kids,....it was awesome. Oh, and my pool is open! Should be ready to go in a day or two.
On Saturday, I had a chance to wheel with my good friends from the North East XTerra Club (NexTerra) out at my local private land. They're a great bunch of folks and a good time was had by all.
Angie and Alex rode along too, which made it that much better. I made some chili for lunch and we had a cookout at the field while we were chillaxing.
Dubbed "Wheeling for Warriors", this run was also a fund raiser for the Wounded Warrior Project. http://www.woundedwarriorproject.org/
The days donation total came in at just over $250.00!!!
I know that if my father had this resource for support after Vietnam, my entire family's lives would have been much better.
Here are a few pics/vids that some of the NexTerra members put up. It's refreshing to wheel with other makes of rigs on the trail besides Jeeps or buggies.
Here's a video one of the members put together.
I finally made that rock slab climb near where Carl blew a bead back in the winter. Angie has some pics from the bottom of the hill that really show the contour.
A few pictures:
My friend Ernie and I going to check out the condition of a hill climb while everyone finished eating.
There is some trail damage that was recently done to what I call the "Pine Tree Hill Climb". Stay tuned for a work day to repair this hill, make a bridge for the stream crossing, and do some more cutting.
I think we might even be able to turn this into an overnighter with a night run.
