yeah, dieseldawg is the black one. some days he thinks he's superdawg, leap creeks in a single bound, climb mountains. he got a little cocky on the mountain, mis-stepped & i had to grab him by the scruff. my brown cow is a cranky girl (dixie), heck, some days she's so grinchy, she doesn't even like herself!

Rubble · 05-16-2013, 12:47 AM

Glad to hear it all worked out good,cool pictures too eh....

dieseldawg142 · 07-13-2013, 03:33 AM

was able to wrangle a week out of the boss. went to a couple small lakes.
road in was 'bout 10% grade, a lot of off camber, some big rocks & ruts with a few drop-offs
biggest fear was running in to someone else. road was pretty much single lane
