    Sorry I'm not sure how busy either of them are. I live close enough to the border as is and don't want to purposely get any closer at this time .. Lol


    When are you planning to head North ? I can PM you my work schedule if you like to make sure I'm in the area when you do.

    Also for anyone else if you find yourself out in my neck of the woods ( ok not really any woods around here !) you must be lost and in trouble, so please look me up LOL...

    Thanks... I'll have to check with the boss (wife) first about swinging by your way. It sure would be nice, though.

    So today we took a little trip to a small traditional Mexican town up in the mountains at about 4600ft. It gave me a chance to take a few gratuitous Jeep posing pics...

    We then drove up to the top of a mountain overlooking the town at 8100ft. The Jeep did excellent on the washed out roads and switchbacks getting there, of course.

    Oh, I forgot... yesterday was XK to the rescue! Some fellow on an atv couldn't get it started. We pulled him down off the mountain. It was raining and nasty. Score one for the Jeep team!
