Nice! If my 7-yr-old daughter didn't have a friends Bday party to go to... and didn't scream like an out-of-control completley panic stricken 7-yr-old girl... well I might have brought her too!



Rob J is in for sure. Kris in Landrover found a buyer for it and that's happening tomorrow instead for him...Steve in big jeep is coming...other H2 is not ready for it I guess... and apparently Brian is gonna join us!!!



This will be AWESOME! See you in the morning! <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... _arrow.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':arrow:' /> Braggers Creek <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... _arrow.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':arrow:' />

U know.... I'm thinking of redoing our spare bedroom for Karl for after our trips...



This aught to be a quick in and out.... his truck isn't far in off the main gravel road this time - only like 10 minutes so it's just a matter of trying to get a makeshift diff carrier bolt assembly. I guess the garage that did the temp fix while the new assembly came in, didn't re-install the specialized washer that goes on the bottom which is about 3" in diameter as it covers the bushing insert so needs to be a basically a very large washer... so he put on a normal one and of course that just pulled the entire bushing out of the hole which causes the diff to hop around.... not too bright on their part in my opinion...



Now we just have to find a very large washer on a Sunday... might be fun but luckily they are all open today...

Okay, just for the record, what is the ratio of Karl going on a trail ride and not coming out with his Hummer to the number of times he has come out with his Hummer......

You guys kill me...it sounds like you have a blast and someone has to leave their Hummer behind and you all group together and treat it like another adventure to go back.....Never Leave a Hummer Behind.....!!!! and if you do....have a damn good time going back into the trail to get her....

You guys need to start a cooperative to have a stock pile of money for the "just in case Karl breaks something" recovery team......Would love to come wheeling with you guys sometime. Planning a trip in the summer to Winnipeg to see family...perhaps I'll keep an eye on the Alberta posings and see if a quick trip to wheel with you guys would be in the cards...wife has never been farther west than Brandon, Manitoba so that should be an easy sell....driving in the Alberta foothills....a more difficult sell.....she doesn't like driving to Florida through the mountains and those are just little hills as far as I am concerned...!!!

I got a few photos of the adventure, check them out! I've got some videos too but haven't had a chance to upload them yet.



Photos of the Adventure!





Yeah definitely consider coming out West for a trail ride... always a hoot!

There's mountains in Florida?<img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... #>/huh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='???' />



Y'All should come out when you visit family and we could take you for a tour of the Rocky Mountains.... will make florida look like ant hills!! Problem is there simply isn't enough time in a year to do the things that you want... (and the money...)..

Actually had a blast today going back in... November 7th and it was 16 degrees out there!! working on the Humma in a t-shirt and shorts! Loved it!! One of the reasons I love this club soo much is the commrodery... everyone watches out for everyone else!



Makes you proud!

Mountains in Florida.....LOL <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... oflmao.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rotflmao:' /> You crack me up.....I said on the way to Florida...we drive through the Smoky Mountains in Kentucky and Tennessee. <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... oflmao.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rotflmao:' />



I would love to come out West and go off-roading with your group...only thing is that I wouldn't want to break anything...would have to have my mechanic go over the Hummer with a fine tooth comb to check for possible faults as it seems someone, usually Karl, breaks something on your trail rides.....would have to factor that into the "trip money" a cool grand just in case.....lol
