Is this thing on still?

Good News Everyone!!
I'm not dead yet.
Although ya probably couldn't tell from the frequency of updates huh?

Soooooo...where were we?
Let me sum up...wait...there is too much.
I'll just start talking again like nothing happened...don't look at the fish.

Ok...so we finally made it to Wasteland Weekend. There's not a ton of evidence of that in pics but there is a few.
Like so....



A professional type snap from a fella who snaps for a living.
I actually took this one MYSELF.




Looks pretty good by torchlight huh?
Ya should see what Melee looks like by torchlight...it's something for sure.
Mah HEART!! It's STOLEN!!!

Here is me and Melee getting ready to roll outta camp on a cruise...
I'm trying to look all stoic...Melee just looks like we're late.
Hint: We are.

Me and the Crawler not only got to hand out Free Rides, but we also worked for our supper.
A buddy of mine went to be a Vendor and rather than have a stationary booth, she wanted to do a Mobile Merchant Cart.
SO after we built that...we figured out a way to attach it to the homemade trailer hitch me and Melee fabbed...did I forget to mention that?

Stress Testing the Hitch with one of my Road Trailers.

Of course the first time we tried to hook it up was AT Wasteland....it failed. You're shocked right? I know you're shocked....ya shouldn't be.
But guess what? We UnBroke it. And got to work, which again I got like no PICTURES of myself.

Me and Neal working to UnBreak stuff.....




Putt Putt.

SO...overall what did I think of Wasteland Weekend?
It was fun...I have things I missed. The fact that I spend most of my time in the MidWaste with the Milwaukee and Indy Crues, in which there is MUCH Hooning made the 5mph Wasteland Speed Limit feel especially heavy.
Add to that...it IS FAR!!
My trip mileage upon my return...


5MPH!!?? BUT I NEED TO HOON!!!!


The Crawler did have Temper Tantrums...mostly due to the CV Carbs not enjoying the dust...so...much...DUST.
I will be doing another upgrade to the Raceway Flatslide Carbs soon...like parts ordered soon.
Stay tuned.
I'll update more.
Promise.
In the meantime...go eat bugs.


Or eat sand.....whatever just GO RIDE IT!!
