The good is my Jeep's pink slip came in the mail today.

Be sure to take lots of pictures and video for me. It's too bad I won't be there to nearly roll my vehicle down the side of a hill again.
That was CRAZY last time. For a split second we thought you were done.

Tell me about it, my heart bout came through my throat when I was watching that. I just watched the vid again and it is crazy. Fast forward to 1:54 and you can see it. And the video does not do it justice, you don't get the full magnitude of the cliff on both sides.

Haha, it was a butt-pucker moment for me and the other 4 in the truck. I'm pretty sure Josiah has a scar from that little blonde girl where she dug her nails into him!

Max that would be cool. I was thinking of staying at my parents house Friday night down in San Jose. If I don't we should try and meet up.

Sounds good. Do you still have your same 209 number from the frank raines contact sheet? I can just text you when I'm leaving and see where your at.

O and my girl is coming with and it'll only be a day trip for us. Don't worry,shes not a girly girl at all(went skeet shooting and cave exploring two weeks ago). Nothings going to offend her so no having to watch your language or what you do or anything like that. Plus she loves driving my truck off road...i know does she have a sister right?hahaha.

If you guys want we can compile names and numbers and emails like we did for the frank raines trip and expand Mark's list.

That's cool that your girl wants to go. I took my wife out there once and she doesn't ever want to go again. She is afraid of heights and hated the trails.

Ya, a list would be a great idea. It would be a good idea for everyone to have a contact number. Especially, the guys who haven't been there before in case they get lost. My number is a 408, I am pm'ing you right now.

I can't wait. The trails should be a lot of fun with being slick from the rain. And we are sure to have some fun in the mud without having to go in the mud pit. The mud pit is just to much clean up.

So it says 60 and raining sat afternoon,49 and raining sat night.

It looks like we'll have 5 guys from here assuming Msall goes plus whatever buddies MT and Big bring.

I'm thinking meet up somewhere and we can all ride to the actual park together?

Any good spots to meet up at Big, maybe in Hollister itself? Its saying take 25 off the 101 and go through Hollister. Is it better to go down to the 156 and head over on union road to cienega?

Ive got everybody but blueoval boys contact info so if thats all thats going I'll send it out to all of you guys.
