I’m hopefully/probably taking a long trip to retrieve an XJ next weekend, so I’m going to delay !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

No one has emailed me to indicate they’d be coming, although Ban dit was kind enough to warn me he wouldn’t.

So, on September 26th instead of the 19th I hope to be exploring the area around Paoli, Indiana if anyone cares to join me. Let me know at !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

Then come join the fun. Have anything with a little clearance?

Also, where are you? Paoli is more than 2 hours from me, so you’re probably closer than I am to most of  my favorite places.

Sorry, far too far and  far too low. Good luck with the recovery though.

The 26th is a big Jeepstock  trail ride that I am hoping to have my Jeep in commission for near Springfield, MO. Time will tell.

I’ve not heard of that before.

With luck I’ll be picking this up next weekend.

Stlouis has a Jeep only club that’s pretty well established since 97 I think? I joined after I bought my Jeep and made some friends. https://midwestjeepthing.com/

They put on the event called Jeepstock.

This will be the first one I’ve attended after kind of getting out of the scene around 2005.

Nice. I’m technically an organizer for a huge local club but since they moved to F B I’ve been almost entirely out of the loop. Haven’t seen anyone in a year.

Same here, I’m no longer on Facebook for about 5 years and I think that where  most of the discussions and drama happens.

I’m in Owensboro, Kentucky. Northwest Kentucky area. Paoli, Indiana is 64 miles or 1 hour and 37 minutes from me according to Google Maps.

Unfortunately, I have nothing to go off-tossing with. Closest thing I’d have is my wife’s 2019 Highlander and she would not want me to take it on any trails.

Define “trails”. They’re all public roads. No off-ro ading.
