Default Jeep Blessing 2012 Here we go again!

Alright boys and girls its that time of year again, time to start thinking about the Michigan Jeep Blessing. We had a great time last year hoping to have just as much fun this time around. Hoping to get a bigger crowd this year for the cruise up it worked out really well last year as far as timing and meeting everyone. I guess we will start a little list of who will be hopefully attending this year and give people time to get those days off. Last year we left on a Friday and were home Sunday evening. The dates will be May 4th through the 6th. I will dig up my old post and copy and paste seeing as we will be using the same times and route this year also. So starting posting boys and girls lets see who all is going.

Idk last year was my first time. Only thing that I didn't enjoy was the weather that you all have no control over.
