Bought an X

The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows where
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

I've got two questions. What was the Kim Kardashian mouth to mouth thing and now Marissa Miller?



Single use only...Kim ain't single anymore.

I like the freedom of expression over here at XN...I've met a lot of the owners here, and they drive/wrench/speak Xterra.

Parking and idling at XN suits me just fine...thanks for the nice welcome.

Baha, that's good stuff.

Squints would not approve though, but on the trail you're not likely going to run into Marissa Miller, so it makes perfect sense.

I was driving my Honda home the other night, pulled into the driveway and noticed my tranny skid was hanging down...two bolts missing, the other two loose. Lucky I saw it...time to go get some new bolts and some lockwashers. Good thing I noticed...and that my Honda rides low enough to see under my X...:)

Went out to Anza Borrego Desert State Park/Ocotillo Wells for Labor Day weekend...had a blast, doing some four wheeling, geocaching, campfiring, and tent sleeping.

A few pics:





Geocache #800



Road closed because of a 60 foot section that washed away...2.5 inches of rain in 40 minutes.

Thanks Mel...NEVER ceases to amaze me the amount of trash I grab visiting the desert/mountain areas.

Looks good! That mud must of fun to clean up haha

Living in Kalifornia, mud is such a rarity. Almost had to look it up in Wikipedia. ;)

About time... now only if it had some red mud in it! :p

You are so right Alex...I will try to keep the red mud "on the outside" this time!

I just purchased a new drivers side as well...so into the night with clearer vision for the Ghost!

Thanks Garrett and Dave...it's been a little while since posting here.
