Ive Been Bitten!!!!!!!!

by the 4x4 bug... ok not really. i have always been into 4x4s.. but being in southern Colorado and around all this snow.. i have seen more 73-87 4x4s than i ever have before. wish i could move up here now... but it will have to wait!

also, for any real 4x4 guys... i stopped by Avalanche Engineering (hopefully my future employeer)... suprisingly, thier shop is quite small... but i guess that keeps the over head low....

if you get a 4x4 you will wonder what you ever did w/o one.. prerunners are cool, and there are a LOT of them in so-cal.. And I mean a LOT. But if you want to offroad you need 4wd. If you are going to build a prerunner it should be built to the hilt, to go FAST over woops, washes, etc.. like desert terrain.. totally different than offroading, IMO. Both fun, no doubt but I prefer 4x4

Heather, i have taken a few pics, nothing major. this time o year is not the right time to be on any trails. so mostly just pics of family...family's house, Jeep...cats...etc.. snow covered mtns are beautiful, but with a cheap 35mm its hard to get any good pics. at the moment i dont have a working scanner... so more than likely these pics wont make it on the web any time soon....

dont worry heather.... we will still go wheeling....

pics of snow covered mtns will do just fine

I'm really missing seeing jagged mtns covered with snow.
