I think Jack has asked for time off from work this Veteran's day and so wants to meet after that holiday

Jokes aside, I really mean the thanks and, yes, the memories are great.

Jack - you ready to plan next year's?
Sorry about that, Nish. If I wasn't half lit, I might've thought about that one a little more.

Next trip, Scottsdale! We can all drive down to a place called Joe's Real Barbecue on the way to the Apache Trail, and take the GLs along it. Beautiful drive, great photos, and no gambling! Then you can take a photo of me stuffing pork-related products into my face.

I still can't believe nobody (other than my wife) has said I needed a blinking bib that night!

Aye aye, Cap'n! I'll scout the trail and get some snapshots. It's a long weekend so I should be able to take a few hours.

What, you don't have the Off-Road Package? You haven't switched to Moab Edition tires yet?

My recollection of taking the tour in one of them there Pink Jeeps was it's all paved. Not nearly as fun as the Desert Storm H1's used to crawl around the desert at night (nor nearly as expensive).

Not something you want to see in a dark alley in Vegas, S-Foot?

Poor guy. Blame Marc! The expression on my face is so, "You're not really going to take my picture in here, are you?"

I gotta say, though, it's one of my better shots.

Send our regards to Allen.

Got back from a trip today and had my cd as well. Another very big thank you to the Reno crew (Dodson and WordSmith) for doing this for us. I will take a look through them tonight before I leave for yet another trip.......

The Reno boys really out did themselves. Got my cd today and it had 234 pictures on it from our Vegas meet. Some really awesome shots fellas!

Thanks for your generosity in sending out the pics to everyone and making it so easy to enjoy them.

I'm trying to put myself into some random person's shoes imagining what it would be like walking into a restroom with one man taking a picture of another man while he's standing in front of a urinal doing #1.

LOL! Actually, my husband was at the urinal right next to Steve. Fortunately for my husband, Marc picked on Steve!

You wanna know the best part??? They were not and did not even look drunk.

Apparently, in this case what happens in Vegas gets plastered on the Internet
