x2, I was directly behind you on most of the trail Friday night. There was some good action watching your tires twist and turn over the rocks and through the moguls.

As some of you know now I have sold the explorer...I bought a f350 in the last year and now as of one week ago I no longer live in the rockies.... I left my job for an offer that I got and was better then where I was and hopefully will expand and improve even greater yet... I now live in the big town sutherland Ne.. (1200 people, yes 1200...not 12,000, or 120,000)

I still log on but have not posted a whole lot recently

Dang Nick we're going to miss you around here. My uncle use to live in Sutherland years ago. Maybe we'll have to do a RMFTC event at Lake McConaughy.

Good luck with the new job. I grew up in Norfolk, thats on the other side of the state though.
