Moab Black Sheep Week - April 8-14, 2012

[SummitUp]

Any word from Frank and Kath?

Well, were really going to try to make it, but... we're a month away from listing that foreclosure property for sale that we recently purchased, so it's possible that something related to that will prevent us from coming. I've finished the hydro-assist steering upgrade on the "Deuce" and I'm really anxious to get to Moab to try it out!

One other possible reason for not making it: The weather! If we get another 3 ft. (or more) dump of snow just as we would be leaving for Moab we might not make it. That's why I wish Blacksheep week was in May instead of April! Here's a video Kat shot of me clearing our property a couple of weeks ago after a 3ft. dump of snow. Maybe I should bring the Unimog to Moab instead of the Deuce!

Frank, good to hear from you. Hope you make it and try out that new steering setup. BTW, you could move from the mountaintops and not have to worry about that snow :wink:

Actually when Kat retires we'll be spending winters in your neck of the woods! :giggle:

Oh, and for your wheeling entertainment here's a couple of Hells Gate Videos from the past:

Hope you guys make it Frank.

It would be great to see you guys also, Mike & Dave! Is Matt coming too?

 

[3Hummers]

Matt will be there. Can't wait for April to get here.

36 more days until I'm there! woohooo. ..going a couple days earlier for a show.

Truck has new tires, new rock skids, recently serviced and today got it aligned. I'll have to find a day trip or two to act as test runs to make sure there are no bugs in the system prior to Moab. It's every time I get in the truck I feel like pointing it towards Utah and keep going......

 

[3Hummers]

I need a shake out run also. Hopefully can make the 2N17X run.

 

[06 H3]

My deavers will hopefully be done before 2N17X. I may be dropping off the hummer at the dealership this weekend to find out my P0302 (bad head?) seeing I changed the plugs and coil pack. then over the next few weekends I can finish some other stuff that needs to be done.

My deavers will hopefully be done before 2N17X.

What's a deaver?

I have a room at the Motel 6 I am probably going to release. Rates are $116.99 for the 7th, $71.99 for the 8-12 and 80.99 for the 13th. If anyone wants it let me know otherwise I will probably let it go in a week or so. Looks like I will only need one room.

Dave, I might need that room. But have a lot going on and may not know till Monday or Tuesday next week

 

[3Hummers]

Ok. Just let me know Zach. I am in no hurry.

Anyone coming to BS week need a CB antenna?
I have three to give away or I'm going to throw them away.
1 4 foot firestik red/white/blue. Standard non-flexible model.
1 4 foot firestik black. Standard non-flexible model.
1 3 foot firestik firefly (flexible) black

All are ok, been used, and I don't want them anymore so they will be headed to the dump

 

[alrock]

3' Firefly! But only as a backup so if someone needs it for a primary use they should get dibs.

 

[HUMMER INVESTMENTS]

I'd like the black 4 foot model as a backup also. But if someone else needs it they can have dibs.
