glad to hear you made it home OK. Hope everything was uneventful towing the willy's home behind the YJ.

I think I had just set off the smoke alarm browning up a loaf of French bread to go with the spaghetti and salad. In spite of what you may think, that's an avocado in a paper towel, not a super doobie.

We can do that if it comes down to it... But a much more simple answer is for you and everyone else that has Bash pictures to register on OlllllllOCJ's SWB Spring Bash Info Site, make your own photo album and put them up yourself.

Follow the link above, look on the left side of the page, click on No account yet? Register (or just click this link).

It may take a few hours to a day but you will be approved and then you may login and post your pictures directly to the SWB Badlands Bash 2008 Album. JBTater and I already have our pictures posted. Best to keep the album size under 125 photos but will work fine with 150 photos or more. If you have more than that just make two albums please.

Post all of the Bash pictures you have and yes even video. The photo album that I'm using is limited to AVI and WMF video formats so the files end up large. Will be looking for something different soon.

Tater made a step by step guide: How do I post pictures to my album?

If you have any problems just PM or e-mail me and I'll help.

Ok, trip pictures... Here is everything all loaded up ready to leave Greg's house and arrival picture.


After about 20 miles, I stop to check things out and notice the right front wheel is pretty warm.... dump water on the drum and keep going.... repeat several times to St. Louis. I did stop to try to adjust the brakes out but never having worked on them, I was trying to turn the wrong part that never moved anyway. By St. Louis, the brake had worn enough not to drag anymore. The rest of the trip was smooth sailing. Surprisingly, the YJ pulled it just fine even up to 65-70 on some stretches. I should have been home around 8 but the brake dragging delayed me getting into town till about 10:30... then after a stop for a bit, home at midnight.

Default Looks fun

Man, looks like you had a great time and great weather. I stayed home and made money (though not much!). I really wish I could have been there. My 4 year old daughter was very unhappy about us not going, especially after she saw the pictures and vids of you all having fun! She was surprised to see women in the picts. Apparently her momma told her that it was a "boys only" thing. So, I promised to take her to next year's Bash. And that means I GOTTA go to next year's Bash!
