Just wanted to say thanks to Jim and Pat for taking a couple of minutes to introduce themselves to me at Silver Lake this past week. I met another guy at Sandy shores with a nice sprung over YJ but I dont remember his name. All the guys were very nice to talk to, and after watching them winch a dodge truck out of the trees, are the kind of people that are good to know and good for the sport. Hope everyone had a great time.

Hank, indeed it was a good time. I didn't know you were a witness to the winching till after it was over. If I had known you were there I would have put you to work somehow. You know....... Pat really puffs going up and down those hills.:muttley: Me on the other hand can jog them all day.:rolleyes:
I hope you get the chance to be around some more.

It is always good to put a name to a face Henry!
We had a good time all week as the weather was great and we drank several litre's of of Labatts. I had to add that after 95Geo's observation of Jim's signature:laughing2:
And Henry, if you are smarter than I and can post video on the internet it wood be cool to see what you have of the Dodge extraction.

I'll try to get some of my Dodge CTD recovery pics (as well as some select others :lmao:) loaded by wed. I wish I could have stayed to at least catch the meeting sunday. A minor emergency necessitated my return home saturday night :sad: . It was nice to finally put some faces with the names, I had a great time :thumb:

By the way Mike, before you mispeak yourself......... I fried a fuel pump, not the other accusation.
So, thank you for towing me out of the dunes because of my FRIED FUEL PUMP.

Wow, that thing was seriously buried! How many vehicles were involved in pulling that thing out? That is just so awesome that nobody got hurt.

Ridgerunner was hooked to me along with a full size truck who I never met. There was another full size truck hooked to Pat & we also never got his name.
So, 5 total.
