Home safe

Short drive, long clean. But she is cleaned, washed and put away (RV...)see pix. Great trip and awesome eveng, thanks again Andy. Can we get more food next time? JK

Idea: next year, we will bring our outdoor projector and movie screen for a movie by firelight and under the stars. Will need to MacGyver your sound system for audio, and use Steve's trailer to elevate screen. I see this as a backup to real entertainment, but could be fun!!! Thoughts?

Movie Night

Hi Jd
Ellyn and I are Finally back in South Carolina. I like the idea of haveing a movie night. We could all so pop popcorn or for real nostalgia i will see if we can get a bunch of Jiffy pop tubs to pop over the fire! As for tying into the 1,200 watt sound system should not be to difficult as it accepts mort common PA cables or ‘Bluetooth.
Now for the movie choice Top gun Maverick? Or Second hand Lions , or possibly Last of the DOG soldiers ? (Has really good cast and scenery is out of this world .
All ready hard at work for next years event hope to be announcing the new web site and registration system in the next month or two . Per are members request we are adding more days to the rally.

Just saw this, looks like fun. I'll have to keep this in mind for next year. Now I just need to figure out how to bring a toad and my SXS.

UTV and Toad options

3pedal,

Andy has one solution that is VERY impressive. Mine is a bit less oversized, I put my 2-seater Razor 900 Trail in the 8' bed of my toad. Of course, we take our 4-seater to Quartzite also, so we trailer both and put a chord of wood in the bed and stacked on the trailer...Hope to see you there next year!!!

Just got home April. The rally was the highlight of our trip. Getting Jeep ready for next year. Leaving for AK in June.

Let's get a water truck for dust control!

Water truck

I will put that in the Capitol Improvements budget for next year but highly doubt it will make it up the chain for a realistic improvement! I think the secret to dust control is being the first one on the line and not the last one ( i was tail gunner for one of our rides with 60 jeeps ) .
