    Hah, was just about to ask @nDub the same thing, my Aunt sent me a video of it, pretty nuts. Completely spilling over into the roads and full of debris.

    Came within a foot of over topping the dam. Very sketchy.

    It didn’t so we’re ok. And we do manage Moccasin Reservoir but I think Mother Nature turned it into a wide spot on Moccasin creek.

    Not much to do but watch and wait. And when it’s all done we clean up.

    I work for Hetchy. I forgot to mention that in my post.

    Woods creek was charging on my way home. Surprised it didn’t flood the fairgrounds

    Luckily the TUD sewage plant is on high ground, cause it was raging. Here is pic I took of Woods today. Right above the old hospital grounds.

    Home after an 11 hour, 500 mile adventure.

    Left home at 0600 for Relentless Fab. Rained like a mother all the way to Donner Summit. Snowed only at the very top. Got to Sparks around 1030. Picked up my new HC rear bumper. Picked up some other parts. Made my first TW Express delivery of the day, near Zepher Cove around noonish. Rained all the way to Spooner Pass. Decent snowfall. Pretty wet, though. Dropped off parts, picked up other parts. Left around noon30. Slushy snow through State Line. Chains required at Echo Summit. Good snow down to Sierra Ski Ranch. Then more rain. Stopped raining around Eldorado Hills. Thankfully, the mud slide onto the freeway was East bound lanes. Sailed into Sac to make my second TW Express delivery. Out of there by 1500. Squeaked into the parking lot of E-Tech Collision just before closing to drop off my bumper for powder coating. Saw a Relentless IFS skid there ready for pick-up. Looked nice.

    Home and resting with a nice big helping of Makers Mark. A day well spent.

    Echo Summit.

    Celebrating our 8 year anniversary with the gf today. Took her to Hakkasan in the city for fancy lunch. Then she took me to se George's distillery for tasting. Never would have thought to mix absinthe with root beer, but that's damn delish. Now at the new Almanac taproom in Alameda.

    :cheers:

    It seems obvious now, they both share a lot of similar spices. It tastes exactly like those root beer flavored hard candies.

    I'm putting more consideration into getting the rear shock relocation kit that accepts the 12" shock, but I wanted get some feedback from people that have been running them for a while. Is there anyone in here that run this setup?

    Lots run it and love it. Stock location can run up to 11.65 shock without. As i do.
    To me its not worth the money. But with it you can run 12" smoothies.
    More shock options.
    But if your going to spend that cash might as well go with a better setup . Like TC, csmburg, or dmz.
    As to spend almost 1k on a set up that only gives you a 1/2 " longer shock then what im runing, dosnt add up to me.
