We got some light rain today but not much. Lasted several hours but barely made any puddles. Doubt I will find any mud tomorrow. Accidentally left my lights on for 30 minutes when I got home until a neighbor alerted me. Hopefully the battery is fine in the morning.

today i tested it over some bumps. I am able to take the bumps a lot quicker than i would with my short arms. It rides nice, but the lower links are straight, so my tires rub at full lock. I havent done any testing off road flexing yet, but i hope to soon.

Was cloudy and rainy this morning so I left my place at 5:30am and went for a drive. Once the Sun came up I was able to get some pics that I thought I would share. Every pic below is less than 5 miles from my home. Which is why I live here.

Hey man... I like the new tagline. Me too, but don't tell my wife.
I need to ask... Something we have already been discussing, but have you wondered why you are so attracted to those natural megaliths? I know why... They attract me too. And I am absolutely sure it is built into my DNA sequence from a longtime back.

We got rain too. Heard it raining at 12:42 this morning and then realized I had forgot to tarp over the missing windshield in the Jeep. Lol

Megaliths? My Dad tells me I am 1/16th Cherokee but you are talking about many many MANY more moons ago. I get it.

I know you feel this...
Have you put a multi-meter on one yet? They become much more than just a rock after you do man. lol

They revere megaliths in Ireland, Scotland and all over Europe. All geographical cultures. There is something in man that makes us feel different, with a different energy when we are standing on top of a mountain or huge rock.

Better yet... Do it in your home, then out away from town, then on top of one of these and take notes.

Off work today so I toured an area I had not been before. Peralta Rd on the south side of the Superstition Mountains. Also went for a hike on the Lost Goldmine Trail. Here are some pictures.

On a side trail I took this pic. The trail was too narrow to go around this cactus so you literally drive underneath it. I took this picture while sitting in the driver's seat of my Jeep.

Here's my contribution to the picture gallery. My oldest daughter wanted to go "off roading" when I picked her up from school this afternoon so we went and crawled around in the desert a mile North of our house. All of 15 minutes but it made her day.

Very cool, and great pic! I remember being a kid and my parents taking me on short off-road trips just for fun. Even 5 minutes is way better than none at all.
