I plan to post some pics as soon as I download them. We had a great time. I heard there were 88 trailers out there. There was a guy that goes by the name Rocketman. Here is a video that was shot in the circle. The whirly bird is first then one of 4 rockets he shot off during the weekend that used 40 pounds of explosives. It was incredible to see. You may hear a couple of colorful words(Not real Bad) so watch it without little ears. But make sure you have the sound on. It sounds as cool as it looks.

Sorry Freedom 5 family, you didn't win the quad but it was great having you visit. The only thing we came away with was a t-shirt and the rain gutter extenders that they were throwing into the crowd.  
 
 OC Campers- Jacqui, Sorry you were unable to come. Randy, it was nice seeing you and your family. We are looking forward and have already made plans to meet up with you guys again on memorial day weekend.

Same weekend and same place. We will be there. The boys had a great time riding. Matt can finally ride the dirt bike with no training wheels. Chris never got off of his bike. He even learned to climb some of the steeper hills. The boys all had a great time.
 
Randy made it home yesterday (luckily). We bought new trailer tires in April and when he stopped in Elk Grove (almost home) he noticed that the right tire was riding low. He checked the tire pressure and it was fine. Got back in the truck and looked back and something still wasn't right. Come to find out the tread had separated from the tire and it was wrapped around the axel of the trailer. He has no idea how long he drove with the tire like that. I couldn't believe he didn't have a blowout.
 
See you in May.

We will definetly be there for Memorial Day.  Ashlee was a maniac on the track when we rode over to see Randy.  She has gotten so much better since we put wheel spacers on her quad.

Come out!!  You don't have to ride.  I just hang out and relax.  Sometimes my neice will talk me into riding but I might ride once the whole weekend.
 
It is true boon docking.  Lots of dirt but the biggest damn bonfire you will ever see.  That is where Brian first saw your "flame thrower" in action.  Plus, where else can you meet Randy's whole disfunctional family:o :yikes: :D .  
 
Bring your own water, potty, generator, and chair and come on out.   Anyone who wants to come and try boondocking is welcome.:-()

DIRT DIRT DIRT  and lots of it.  You get dirt and sand where dirt and sand do not belong.  :o :D   But we sure have a good time.:! .   If you drink enough cactus coolers, you will forget about the dirt.:!
