And the squeal? Apparently, it is on vacation. Although we did talk about it and several theories were offered.

A stupid man's report of what a clever man says is never accurate because he unconsciously translates what he hears into something he can understand.

That was some other guy's son that attends the church and was sharing the rock mound with us.

That magazine posted an article about the car show. They really liked John.

Yeah, wow, I'm famous - what was it? - 15 minutes of fame or something like that. Guess the guy liked the oldie and the crawler.

I finally got my pictures together, only about 3 turned out any good. That glaring sun made for bad lighting for all but a few angles.
Nice one of Jason's JK

At the show, we talked some about a "kinetic display" for next year. A pile of rocks big enough to drive over would be logistically impossible.
But
How about a big pile of old tires? About 15 feet wide and 50 feet long? Maybe weave some rope through them to keep them together and give people rides in our Jeeps over the tire pile.

Think Willow Creek would go for something like that? A half a semi load would be more than enough. I bet somebody in the Willow Creek family has a salvage yard full of tires.
