All packed up here. Just need groceries. Bringing chili fixings for one night. Hope to be there before dark.
Chorizo, it's what's for breakfast.

Now even more packed, waiting on Randy. That should be a song, "Waiting On Randy".
Went to the dispensary for the first time today, it was odd like stopping for kerosene. Still hard to believe.
Come onnnnnnnnnnnnnn Randyyyyyyyyyyyy

Great trip again, thank you all. Still recovering. A cold river air chute clattering all the camp, it is weirdly quiet here. It is hard to see Eva grow up so quickly, though we know it all along. I guess we are falling apart just as quickly.
Hell of a drive home on 84, headwind and heavy aggressive traffic and rain. Oil temps were cool but I could smell the heat.
Those big BFG tires do cut down on my HP. Nice in the woods though. Barely made it to The Dalles, I should have stopped in Tygh Valley for gas.
Mike did you get home OK?

Great pictures Westy78.
Hambone, got home save and sound. A few slow crawls up those hills with that head wind. Saw you fueling up in The Dalles but never caught up to you on 84 after we fueled up.

4-20, where we going, I'm ready.

Great pix, that camera has good resolution, better than mine.
Finally warmed up today.
Hey Mike glad you got home OK I figured as much. 11.84 gallons at The Dalles! 12 gal. tank. There may be a reserve, I've never tested it.

I'd say 11.84 gallons on a 12 gallon tank is a pretty good test.

Who shrank your tank? Mine holds a bit over 14 gallons...
