Not for a few months. Work has kept me busy. Last ride was out to my son''s cabin. An easy off road run.

Well, that's more than I've done Joel. My Ex has been sitting so long, the line on the interior of the fuel pump rotted... and it's been sitting even more, since I'm broke.

I hear ya. Unemployed sucks. Although I did manage to get some lanscaping work done around the house, labor is free when you own a few shovels. So far the closest I have gotten to wheeling is when I backed up the riding mower to far to dump a load of dirt. Took a quick short trip backwards down into the ravine. Fortunately I jacked knifed and stopped about half way down. Climbed off the mower and walked back to the house and got my Blazer. Hooked my strap around the front end of the tractor and dragged it up the hill.
Other than that I have been wheeling around the yard shoveling dirt and rock. Put in a French Drain around the house and added a broken concrete slab parking spot for the '93 Blazer. Now someone in the neighborhood cant complain that my truck is parked in teh grass.
Couple of pics of the drain and rock hauling truck.

Great work on the French drain. I still have my seasonal job but down to 12 hours a week. It gets me out of the house.

Haven't been out since mid-summer. Took my beater 'Yota out and blew a brake line, blew a tire, and smashed the front end into a tree, then pressure washed it to get at the brake line and haven't touched it since.
However I've been busy restoring my 79 Bronco, 4'' lift, and 35'' GroundHawgs. Just going to rebuild to look cool and occasionally get dirty, but mainly just to drive around and show off to the Jeep guys. Just got the lift on and the frame done, moved it under its own power and going to finish it this winter.
