Me neither Carly will be with me and all I have in the rear right now is a lap belt.
I'm just here for the views. It helps me feel wanted.

Re: Baja Excursion August 2011
I was worried about that too! I knew she'd be along for the ride no matter what. But knowing she has someone to talk to besides all of us (hahahah) makes it better.

Re: Baja Excursion August 2011
In talking with Andy he is bringing Lily and I am trying to get Karen to go with me. She's nervous about the typical BS Mexico stuff though - like getting kidnapped and her head cut off. I keep trying to explain she will be fine and we will have a blast...

Re: Baja Excursion August 2011
Tried already. I told her I've been shot so many times down there that I'm scared to go back, but the fact that I get raped as well and I enjoy that keeps me coming back...Silverslk wrote:Steve, explain to her that I took my mom and wife to Mexico last year and we all were raped and killed. haha

Re: Baja Excursion August 2011
Well, it looks like I will have my own Bronco for the trip. I found one on CL and SteveG (a true gentleman) took some time out of his busy shedule to give it a look over for me and help with the purchase. He has it at his shop, doing some minor repairs, smog, etc. I cant thank him enough for his help, what with finishing Nick's beast and all, and his other projects. I hope to be over soon to assist with some upgrades and meet everyone before August. Hopefully, most of you can come up to a get-together and the first few rounds are definately on me!
Anyone looking for a ride to Baja, I might have an empty seat if I can't convince SteveG to go
