Any Members in Arkansas?

I think Doc has his license.

 

Went out today to check out Pam's Grotto and Pack Rat Falls. The heavy rain that was forecast never showed up so they weren't flowing much, but it was still a great day to get out there!

 

Not that I intend for all of my updates to be like this; I do other stuff, I promise. Anyway, had to haul a new air compressor today. I was a touch nervous...




It worked out though. Only had to go around the block. The box says "Top Heavy." lol

 

I would be a nervous wreck hauling that thing, geeze.

 

How did you even load it like that?

 

Yeah, me too. I go crazy with ratchet straps, but that kind of load always makes me nervous. Those things are heavy all over to begin with.

 

@MatthewMay1, we had to use fork lifts. It was bolted to the pallet; so, I just ran a ratchet strap over the top and strapped the pallet to the floor hooks at the front and rear of the bed. I could tell it was pretty well fixed just because the body roll was noticeable with no movement from the box. And that was at like, 1 mph. I just let my inner granny take over. Haha!

 

I was going to say, mine was bolted to a pallet. I just sold mine over the summer, still bolted to the original pallet. I remember unloading that thing by myself when I bought it, ugh.

 

That's just good practice for when you get your RTT installed....test your flex.

 

I'd have been very comfortable hauling it... to my house.

 

This isn't directly related to the diff breather discussion a few pages back but it's still an interesting video on diffs and fluid.

A little throwback fusion jazz to go with your ODO pic...

Edit: Nice catch on the pic, that maybe a framer for the cave?

 

Love it. These things were my favorite part of that show. Besides Grover and the aliens.

 

So....are you gonna gunnite or go on a run with your amigos this weekend?

 

I bet just a little water would turn that to mayonnaise pretty quick....what a mess.

 

When and where is the meetup? Tires and wheels going on now.

 

I'm open, the little rockers can caravan from The Rock, and meet, say 9-915 AM at the Valero, Morgan Exit?

Any more takers? We are going to do an overnight run this Sat-Sun in the Ozarks. All are welcome to join.

 

Anyone bow hunt here? And where is this trip?

 

Plans are to do a short scenic loop around N side of Hurricane Creek Wilderness/Car Wash Falls in the Piney Creek area, then camp probably Haw Creek Campground and come back down Indian Creek on Sunday. Area is West of Hwy 7 and N of Hwy 123

Edit: So far its Pete, Dave and his wife and myself. We can make arrangements to meet you on Hwy 7 at the turn off. Plans are still evolving, so come on, join us.
