Some of us met up with some of the Hearland 4x4 group to ride some trails at Land Between the Lakes near Grand Rivers Kentucky yesterday... Here's some pics. We didn't do anything serious, just flung some mud around and checked out the trails around the lakes, the scenery was gorgeous, and we even saw a deer (being second in line helps :)) Met some very nice folks and had a great, dusty, muddy day! :)

Most of us, awaiting our next destination...


This guy, sorry I didn't get his name, we called him pigpen after this... Is the only one who got stuck. I'm very grateful Trey decided against it... thank you honey....


My son caught the tiniest frog ever....

There weren't a lot of photo opportunities. It was a really relaxing (albeit dusty) day just doing some expedition riding and exploring the area around the lake. We put on about 35 miles.

We rode access roads through the woods, stopped at the lake in a few places to cool off and rinse off some of the dust. Next time we're taking swimming suits.

Had lunch by the lake and had a good time.

The most excitement we had all day was when Brian "PigPen" (his new nickname) decided to try a mud hole and about scared a poor frog (who was having a relaxing day at the spa until a Jeep jumped into the mud bath) clear to death.
Red threw a strap on him and gave him a tug.


Small group, all really nice people. I don't know why they let ME tag along, but I had a good time.



I think I may have finally met my match,


but I got even with him soon enough

I wish I had known what you guys looked like I was there and just driving around on Sat and Sun. Since it's only about a 30 min drive from the house I have also been there on Mon, Tue and am going back as soon as it gets light in the moring. lol The BP in Dover is wondering why I have been filling up every morning. lol As far as the deer go I keep having to run them out of my yard. Of course I plan on going this weekend too.

It WAS funny!
We're driving along and WHAP! a branch hits me in the face and chest and I'm covered in it. I think that's when I started calling him PigPen and telling OBM that we should make him go to the back of the line.
A couple of times I thought I felt a rain drop on my arm and looked down and it was more mud. I'm STILL trying to get it out of the interior of my Jeep. It hit the upper sides, bounced off of the roll bars and wedged itself into nooks and crannies that are giving me fits trying to clean. :banghead:

I HATE mud!!:mad:

but it's still funny :D

LOL!
OBM = On Board Mechanic (you met him this weekend!)
Something I made up a LONG time ago in a sig line. "The best accessory I have on my rig is my OBM"

Do tell, we're looking forward to it....... (except Kate's gonna make me walk home if I get a flat......;))
First weekend in August. I'm going to WI today for a week. Barrie is going to RC this coming weekend (a week from now) and then driving to KY. The tentative plan is to wheel both days. You should check out THIS website for rules and print the registration form out ahead of time to make it easier for you. $15 for a three day pass. I think Barrie is planning to stay at a hotel in Murray for the weekend. We will most likely wheel until dark (you can't go after dark) on both days. When I talked to him on the phone he said he wanted to wheel and also do a lot of BSing because it was so far to come he wanted to be able to spend time talking with folks. I'll get in touch with you the week before if you would like. Feel free to PM me your phone #s so I can call you later about it.
