This was certainly a memorable event :cool:

Thanks for so many "thank you" 's everyone. I really have to hand it to Scott though - he really put this thing together rather quickly and did it very well. I just helped with the execution of his well-laid plans. Nice job Scott! The other critical part of this equation is the sum of all the people who attended. Everyone really added a superb quality of character, sportsmanship, and FUN to make this an awesome event. It is what we make of it, and you guys didn't waste any time! It was a gas to meet a lot of people for the first time and see who is behind the forum identity. And it was really cool to see all of my long-time buddies too. Some of you guys I have known for many, many years and it's pretty cool that depsite the miles apart we still manage to get together once in a while. My birthday was on Sunday, and I couldn't have asked for a better b-day celebration! Thanks for all of the gifts and treats everyone! :beer: I was in hog heaven!

Well, I will post more thoughts as they come along, but just wanted to drop in and put a few down now. I also will attach a pano-pic from that gorgeous overlook when we crested the ridge, looking to the east at the Mazatzal mountains and the Verde River valley.

Cherokee and Oliver, I hope you two are feeling better. We are rooting for you all the way! Don't let up and keep drooling with a smile!!!

P.S. - Great photos everyone! Thanks for posting 'em! Kristina, I'm really glad you got the cool "people" shots. I need to remember to get more of those next time. And Jeff! AWESOME rally course photos! And you got the expedition cadillac too! :bowdown:

I've processed some of my pics, but I don't have a gallery built yet. I'll throw a few in here right in the thread and if it bugs anybody due to slow connection, let me know and I'll remove them and do thumbs or something.

Great photos everyone. It's nice to see some of the photos of the people attending the event too. I know that's a part that is often overlooked photographically, but Desertgirl did a great job capturing it.


Now I'm really bummed that I couldn't make it out there... :(
 
Wow, after being away for a few days, then reading this thread and seeing everyone's AWESOME pictures, I want to do it again!! What a stellar group of folks; talented, intelligent and way fun!! :jump:

Keep them pics coming~~

And best prayers for the really great doggies that are a major part of the gang~~~sending healing thoughts.

Nathan, we missed you man. But everyone was definitely speaking your name a lot! The goodies you sent out were quite the hit :jumping:


We missed Graham too. I wonder what that 110 would have clocked on the Sand course...

OK, here's a few more pics.

Thanks. I wish I could have been there, but count me in for next years event.

It sure would have been a sight. Graham's probably one of the fastest drivers I've met, but there's only so much you can do with an 110HP engine in a 6,500 lb vehicle

Great gallery Scott. :ylsmoke:

I have a couple more pictures that I took that I liked. Here are the sized down versions.

Cool windmill we passed on Saturday evening.
