Yup, and I got a good bit of that at Tellico with Paul, Mark and Brett getting me through alot of those tight spots. I wish I could make it down there to AL but there is no way possible with classes coming to a close soon, I've got to focus 100% here and now.

Scott, ask Chris about my first time-I was probably worse than you. You did really good-and sorry about that wrong trail excursion. I guess the main thing is, don't be afraid to ask for a spotter-I still rely on Chris and Marc and Paul heavily for that now.

That section right after Fains Ford where you are heavily side tilted (where Paul and I were hanging on your sliders) scared the crap out of me my first time there. It doesn't bother me now and the fact that I've now been through there about 6 times is why I drove on through w/o worry this time. I'm by far no offroad genius.

I agree with Brett. The second time you run a trail, the tension, anxiety, and fear is drastically reduced, since you already know you've been there once before. The more you ride those same trails, you'll begin to learn your truck's dimensions and capabilities. Then, you'll begin to increase the difficulty again.

haha,
will thats not me. There were too many white 3rd gens! Thats justin, notice the lack of a HUGE decal ? Are those pics compressed? Is there anyway I could get the full images w/o the stupid cardomain poo on them? I'll host them on the 4Roc site so you don't have to takeup space on your account.

The lack of pics is due to the lack of people with cameras... *coughJcough* jayson, and my charger disappeared so I couldn't use my hi-rez camera. Thats why... sorry. I was so pissed I didn't have mine. Oh well. The video will make up for some of that.

Sorry about that.
Yeah I can send you a CD, or I can e-mail them to you a couple at a time.
They will probably get to you faster if I e-mail them to you.

Will,
whichever you prefer, whatever is easier for you is fine with me. Did you get your memory card yet? It should be there tomorrow or the next day for sure.

Scott,
of course!

To busy driving and trying to avoid body damage to take pictures
I've got to finish my sliders and get them on before going again.

Slider would not have helped this http://img107.exs.cx/img107/2126/MVC-001F6.jpg
I like the sticker that covers the damage though !

I think you should just urn them to CDs for him to pick up. At least that way, he will have them and be able to do what he wants to with them.
Austin; the pics Mike has are the same pics I posted ( except there are a lot more) I was just posting them for him. So, if you want he can put them on a CD and you can pic up when you come home for Thanksgiving!

Scott,
I need a pic of your rig so I can make you a avatar... I also need an updated mod list so I can update your 4Roc page.

YESSSSSSS! I found my battery charger for my digital... it was between my bed and bed side table :pat: I'll be ready next trip I'll be ready!

Brett,
Did you get the check? I also can make you an avatar anytime, just get me an image or even an address to an image and I can hook you up! Just let me know.
