Texas Lost High Way Route 87

For those of you that might be interested in this kind of thing, Colonel Bubby's military surplus is also located on the road along the seawall and is supposed the have a lot of stuff. I think that I am going to try and stop by there beforehand and pick up a tool bag and see if they have anything I need for X-mas for my M715 :-)

Bubby's is one of the biggest military surplus stores on the planet. ... A visit to Colonel Bubby's is always fun.

BTW guys if you all can get a lil bit of wood together I didn't have enough in my back yard with out cutting down a few trees, for firewood.

I will bring what I have though, just wasn't sure if we were gonna be able to get enough off the beach to keep a good fire going for two days.

Ok, should I be worried or should I bring the video camera? :eek: ;)
 






I am so jealous. This looks like an awesome trip. Virginia is just to far away. Please take lots of pictures/videos and a detailed trip report would be nice.
 






You should always be worried. But I say bring BOTH.
 






Bring both and bring some spare taillights for Doug
 






Anybody need any headlight fluid, I'm going to the store.

Yeah, I need to take the video and the digital cameras. This could be a total learning experience. Maybe I should take notes as well. Tape all the conversations over the radios? Dang, wish I had some of Stic-O's cameras to place on everyone's trucks when they aren't looking... :D
 






Thats right you all better watch out, I'm a trained killa, I'll shoot you with some blanks and an invisible laser beam. Yeah, definantly bring a video camera, drunken shenanigans with most definantly occur. But on a more serious note, I'm going to work on the truck this weekend, clean out all the crap that is in it, try and attempt an alignment, see if i cant get rid of some of the 8 or so trouble codes, etc etc etc. But really I'm a nice, normal person..... MUAHAHAHAHA!! :D

Somehow I think your definition of a nice, normal person is quite different than most people's definition.....

:mattmoon:

:D

BTW, wish we could make it down...maybe for a summer wheeling trip when Rachel is out of school.

Home schooling for Rachel? Think about it.. teach her about physics mathematics, etc on the trails. Then again I don't think Sue would approve.
 






I have 3 out of the 4 vents extended on the Ranger (front diff, tranny and rear diff). T-Case to come this weekend.... So I guess I am 3/4 of the way to being ready? Doug, should I be worried? Looks like SVO had some fun w/ Google Earth....

Just browse for Offroad discussion/trips section and looks at the photos of Doug. You'll see many whoops situations. Then again I have a few too.. I think my shorts are still stained from those almost two flops at Paragon.
 






I don't know why you all are woried about Doug :rolleyes:

Hell we created a parking lot in a parking lot with our rigs that everyone stopped by and was asking us question.

We drank alcohol (not beer) from 11am till 7pm, and picked up some cute girl and some of her friends.

Went wheeling with her and her firends (they had a Sammi and a knobby tired golf cart) till some 9pm at night, on thier property that was made into a MX track.

Ate and called it a night.


He was cool as hell to hang out with, he's my kinda people :D
Why do you think I invited him.


Hell yeah I intend on bringing the digital still/video camera, you know the shenanigans will happen! :confused:


You all are just jelioius and miss Doug, now he's getting draged into the relm of the Texas crew! :p
