Hay folks, My test trip took me out into the foothills of the Olympics just south of Sequim. Found out I have some autolockers... A plus and great starting point. Mellow Yellow performed brilliantly. After about an hour and half on the dirt I found myself back on the 101 and with several hours to kill before my ferry reservation. So, off to Neah Bay along 112. This is a stretch of road I have been wanting to explore for decades. What a fun drive. Once second you are in the bush and the next at the coast. Stop in at Shipwreck point for a Photo opt and to check out the sites. The good news is the Jeep is ready from some more adventures. However the list of upgrades has grown. Fuel Capacity is priority number 2, after a new driver's seat. Looking forward to joining you all on some adventure in this "new to me" vehicle.

Hello folks, I have been knee deep in wrenching this winter (and recovering from a broken solder blade). Finally got the new Transmission in the Jeep plus a few other items. It's steal a basic Jeep TJ. Now that I got the essential taken care of i can start on the fun stuff (bumpers, rock slider, ect). Sunday, April 2, 2018 I'm heading out to the Peninsula for my first test run... hopefully no lost bolts and macgyvering on the trail. I know this is a late notice, but if anyone wants to join me, I'm heading to Port Townsend and trying to find some forest roads out near Discovery Bay. My goal is to work my way west on as much dirt a possible.
