Thanksgiving Run???

[jays68yak]

So there was some mention of possibly hitting up hollister thanksgiving weekend. Friday-sunday.
Whos down????

Im going to try damn hard to get the rig running in time so Im trying to make this the shake down run. Jerry said hes down to come friday night or possibly saturday. Nate, it was your idea??? Joe?? Is the new job going to be tieing you up?

Everyone else?

[Burt4x4]

I will be at the condo in Pismo :p

[crewcabroller]

I'll be in hollister in January on the 6-8th. Just like this year. Last year we skipped thanksgiving and went first weekend of jan.

Im down for both. I just need to get out have and have some fun wheelin. Besides I want to hear this 454 full throttle, then a 60 shaft snapping. :)

[barbastard]

I possibly could be down.

I’ve got to decide between going to Hollister and wheeling or going on my annual Thanksgiving trip with another crew of buddies or going down to Applevalley to visit my pops for turkeyday (and not wheeling). I haven’t yet decided, so I’m up in the air. I should know in the next couple of weeks.

However….if I do go to Hollister, I’m down for Friday thru Sunday and would like to get down there EARLY Friday. I think it could be a pretty fun trip. We would need to bring a LOT of beer though!!!! Jungle trail in the rain or wet would be pretty gnarly!!!

I’m down for a Jan 6-8 Hollister trip as well.

[jays68yak]

Thats what im saying. Time to dig for the rain suit. And like 40 changes of clothes. :blink:

[barbastard]

Yeah…very true. But you know….maybe I’m a weirdo or something….but I actually really enjoy camping/wheeling in bad weather. Snow, rain, mud…I think it’s pretty fun. We’ll just have to bring some tarps, set up some “lean to” shelters, bring some good booze to warm you up, and deal with it!!

[jays68yak]

I can deal with the rain and mud. Snow.....now thats cold. I dont like freezing. Let me tell you tho. You have never :pain: till you :pain: in a bag on the rubicon in the middle of the night while your legs are shaking due to the cold.

Oh suck it up, you big sally!!!! :cry:

I’ve camped in weather in the single digits and it’s not that bad…..assuming you are prepared to do so!!!! An adequately rated/suited sleeping bag, tent and clothes for the weather you are in are a MUST. If you don’t have the proper equipment, it can and WILL make your experience a horrible one.

Granted, out of all the bad weather you can have out there….I think I’m least fond of camping in rain. Just because it’s a PITA to deal with and EVERYTHING gets wet, it’s difficult to hang out in, etc. But, there are still ways around it.

[jays68yak]

have you seen my sleeping bags? They are from the 70s, or so Kevins says, Im thinking more of the 80s. I think over the years they stop working so well. :uh oh:

I just want to go wheel darn it!

[Hoss]

hey i would be down to go wheeling i might not have my lift yet but i would still want to go

[jays68yak]

The more the better. :2thumbs: :beer:

[k5LS2]

Yea Jay thos are sum brady bunch lookin sleeping bags!! Ive seen homeless folk with nicer bags! j/k!!
Im prolly gonna go too :D

[KidJethro]

Damn, I gotta put my truck back together... :blink:

[jays68yak]

Damn, I gotta put my truck back together... :blink:

so do I. :2thumbs:

[barbastard]

I'll know tonight what the hell I'm doing.

It's between going to hollister with you polesmokers or going on my other annual turkeyday trip....just need to decide.

[UseYourBlinker]

I got nothing else to do. I'm down :chaz:

[Hoss]

No you didnt say that...but you did say that you were providing the strippers and deep frying a turkey. :2thumbs:

[barbastard]

No you didnt say that...but you did say that you were providing the strippers and deep frying a turkey. :2thumbs:

BS....I said I'd deep fry a turkey and I'd WATCH some strippers and even chip in for some...but not that I'd provide for them in their entirety.

Sounds good.

I’ll plan on being there around 8 or so.

OR

Are you going to be at your place thanksgiving night? If so, maybe I’ll just cruise down Thursday night after all the holiday festivities and crash on your couch….if you’re cool with that? That way I’ll have someone else to drink with Thursday night :beer: ….plus it’ll be harder for me to oversleep at your place. :flipoff2:

[jays68yak]

I should be home later that night, not eatting dinner till like 6pm so I would say 8-9 till I get home. More or less till I can sneak out.

[barbastard]

Yeah, 8 or 9 is fine…I probably won’t be down until like 10 or 11 anyways. I’ve got to finish up my turkey day festivities as well, then come home and pack up the rig. I’ll give you a call.

[barbastard]

Looks like decent weather for the weekend….

[jays68yak]

Nate, Myself, Jerry, Eric, Dillion, maybe Jason #1, and maybe some others. Im bring a few pallets from work so we might be ok on the wood, but if you want to bring some up dats cool? :2thumbs: And of course you could always just drop by to say hi.. :) Is your jeep fixed yet?

[barbastard]

Yeah...bring wood...I think it'll be needed. Gonna be getting a little cool at night this weekend.

What's the rule on burning trees that have fallen at HH? Can we cut 'em up and use 'em? I've got a chainsaw I'm dying to use!!!

[gokartergo]

Nope, jeep is not done yet.. But I am using my brothers laredo.. Guess I could tear it up..LOL. Not sure about the wood at Hollisterhills. I found a piece at Blazer fest and cut it up.. But I didn't get caught.. They have been real assholes latley.. I can get a trailer full of the cedar blocks again..

[barbastard]

[UseYourBlinker]

The guy in the red was actually in the process of falling when I took the pic. :D
http://www.pnkages.com/gallery/albums/album21/DSCN1694.sized.jpg
And this is where I ended my day of wheeling friday. I had to get winched backwards since I could not get out. On top of that I killed my raidator. So I spent part of the night JB welding it up.

[PaloAltoK5]

Jays,

Like the new look for the rig, not you just need to strengthen the radiator mounts....and get a new one...!! :thumb:

[CaptainInsano]

Rig looks good.

Hehe, my radiator was falling out last trip to HH. The stock mounts on the K5 suck for wheelin.

[jays68yak]

Jays,

Like the new look for the rig, not you just need to strengthen the radiator mounts....and get a new one...!! :thumb:

:( Yeah I know. I lost one of the bolts rather quickly. For the most part it needs to be moved away from the fan though. I have another one in my backyard so I just need to figure out how to get it an inch or so away.

It should that is some serious bling bling suspension. I'm envious! :beer:

[barbastard]

All I’ve got to say is I was UBER impressed with the performance of the new beadlocks and IROK’s. I had them aired down to less than 10psi and they held up just fine. There were numerous times that I climbed right up the face of vertical dirtwalls/rock ledges with the SIDE of my tire and or wheel. Never lost a bead or a bolt. There were a couple of times I heard a “psssst” and air started to rush out….but I’d goose the throttle a bit and get out of the situation I was in and I was fine.

Other hightlights of the weekend (in no particular order):

1.Darren’s “Lord of the dance” impersonation on the hood of his scout
2.Darren’s subsequent “digger” off the hood of his scout onto the ground below
3.Jerry and “Ursula” bombing through tank trap, spinning doughnuts and flopping it, and his general disregard for the well being of his rig….good show Jerry…as always…great entertainment
4.Jason’s (the bako one) supreme fire bomb knowledge and the implementation of it at camp Saturday night
5.Wrestling in camp is cool.
6.“Is he big? Is he brown?....well let him in.” Thanks Eric…that’s forever ingrained in my head…..
7.The looks I got while driving down to HH in my rig…with the top off….the doors off….in the rain…..
8.“Borrowing” a squeegee from a gas station….to squeegee off the INSIDE of my windshield…WHILE driving down to HH
9.I like chainsaws!!!!
10.Running tank trap…twice….good times!!!
11.Kevin’s truck no breaky!!! But I did learn that Kevin’s drive shafts are NOT technically part of his truck.
12.Jason’s (the other one) hard work on his rig paid off….congrats on what I believe to be a record for coming the farthest along with a rig in the shortest amount of time. Now…just get the radiator issue solved and it’s go time!!
13.Ouch…my liver hurts.

[barbastard]

anyone else have pic's from this past weekend? How about anymore video?

[jays68yak]

you forgot Jerrys Qoute.
"I think Ive had enough sasuage for the night"

[barbastard]

while holding a bottle of Jack "Can we night wheel at night Mr. Ranger?"

pure comedy..... :rotflmao:
