The rest of 2017 was Dad Life. Jeep only left the garage a couple times and that was for search and rescue.

2018 on the other hand meant a little girl who liked to go places so it was time to fabricate her a chair.

I also added a hard top back on and rerouted the exhaust to quite it down for her.

I also decided that it was time to lower the center of gravity on the jeep.

It was time for some adventure well until my copilot was too pregnant to bounce around anymore. Yep #2 is on the way.

Next stop was Glacier. Adventuring with the munchkin really changed the type of trail we sought out. This was a bunch of firsts for her and it was alot of fun.

And then my copilot hit that stage of pregnancy where bouncing didnt sit well anymore and the rides stopped.
Which brings us to the current. We moved again with her 6 months pregnant and we now live in Utah. Closer to Moab and so many great wheeling areas. Utah is amazing and I plan on wheeling a lot more. My son is due in January and some adjustments will be made to fit him and his gear into the jeep but we are looking forward to exploring every trail this state has to offer.
