    I hear @Aztec120 helps with camera installations for the price of a case of diapers.

    Seriously though, he's an expert now and I really enjoy having mine, even in the mall parking lot so I can get within a centimeter of the Jeeps parked in front of me. Makes them nervous when they come out of the Yankee Candle store.

    Now you have a reason to go back. Atigun Pass & the Brooks Range are truly spectacular. Sad to hear that you went all that way and missed it.

    Atigun pass, first week of June 2003.

    Awesome memories, eh? Adventures make life worth living, when you trade your 6's for 7's and faculties begin to ebb, better to have those precious memories than to have "I wish I woulda".

    Have fun at Magruder's

    You're not wrong :rofl:he's growing like a weed.

    I also enjoy ticking off my wife by parking centimeters behind her to figuratively "tap that ass" from time to time.

    I recently heard something profound. Doesn't apply to me, but I know people who checked out rich and rarely did anything exciting.

    "It would be a shame to die a millionaire".

    Very true.

    I read this quote many years ago and have lived by it ever since:

    Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.

    -Helen Keller
