6th Annual AOAA Invasion - October 14-16, 2022

Mikes truck has a mean mugshot.

 

Don has enough pinstripes for everyone. He means buisness

 

That’s why I asked if they were alive

 

Good wheeling with you! Glad you got a picture of my 'what lines not to take' moment

Good to meet the other folks I had a chance to talk with and put a few faces to screen names. A big thanks to @TwistedTLM4 and @Arcticelf for doing a lot of the leg work, and to everyone else who had a hand in organizing or donating. It made the drive to / from well worth it and Im looking forward to next year if my schedule allows.

 

Quite a few wives, girlfriends in camp this time, so that always changes behavior; not quite the lost boys crowd it used to be.
As for pics, it's tough to lead and take pics, so I leave that to the group.

 

Thanks @TwistedTLM4 and @Arcticelf for setting this up. Well done. Great people and great food. It was nice seeing people I have met before and putting faces to screen names.

Had a blast with the homies!

 

Shoutout to @Redmann @TwistedTLM4 and @Mmatos8902 for a rad time Sat and helping to recover my rig lol

PSA - get the exhaust re route.

I got hung up on it on a little blue trail and that was the start



Couldn’t get it off by stacking rocks so a little tug off should do the trick



unless the pull is to the driver side and the shelf forces the steering to the passenger side. That equals this:



So anyways drove it down to a better ish area



and the gang jumped in right away





Gouged the inner lip of the wheel but it held air long enough to get off the trail.

Swapped to my spare and it’s good as new



Even gave it a bath today



oh, and the wheel damage



Still holding air somehow

 

We shoulda had a spotter when tugging ya off.

 

Yea, that sounds like a private moment, no need for a spotter. LMFAO !!!

 

meh it all ended up okay. Tugged off in peace and the rubber stayed intact

 

@GarlicFarts Keep an eye on your dog, Atlas was just diagnosed with kennel cough.

Yours and the other 2 dogs at camp were the only other dogs he's been around in the past 3 months. On that note, if anyone knows the people that had the other dogs, please let them know.

 

Oh shit - thanks for the heads up and hope he's good.

The two Aussies? I'll let Kyle know

 

@AllTacosFloat just realized pepper was in your truck all day - not sure if and how long it lasts, pepper isn't showing any symptoms but she's had it before so she might not be able to again
