Evening.
After helping with a 45 page form, our Jeep club is officially authorized now by the Red Cross as an emergency relief team and can tell fema to F right off. Same thing the Cajun navy ended up doing I guess years ago. So we meeting in the am, loading up 43 jeeps to make the trek. I’m helping load but not gonna take the trip. Too risky in a Jeep that’s overheating.

Also participated in our local parade with the Army Caisson team. Carried the little 6 week old on the 2.5 mile route, not the smartest idea given my injuries but the wife was complaining about having to watch 3 out of 4 kids solo so I took the “hardest” one. She slept the entire time
I saw a member of the Rubicon group on the news yesterday. They have been doing some good work.

Yeah lots are.
Members of our club have managed to breach the red tape a couple days back and get up some of the mountains, one group hiked into a family with a 11 week old pair of twins stuck on a mountain , 3.5 miles up, on foot. There’s an entire town on that mountain cut off, estimated 150-250 people. It’s not even on an atlas it’s so small. So it’s not on anyone’s radar, or wasn’t.
The pictures and stories I keep seeing on the Jeep text thread are sobering at best. I’m not sure how long it’s gonna take to rebuild all these roads, but I’m guessing 3-5 years minimum, maybe longer.
Next weekend the Dart is getting an upgrade. I ordered a front sway bar the other day.

Seen this at the local enterprise, had to stop and talk to them. Rare to see an A body Mopar in this area
Was it for sale? It’s looks to be in great shape.
Wow!
Busy day here with family.
Nasty wind today getting 60 mph winds but no snow yet so I'm happy.

Yeah sadly another reason I’m not going, my shoulder and my knees are shot, carrying an 11 pound baby 2.5 miles hurts like hell, I can’t do no 40 pound ruck up a mountain anymore. Really makes me sad and pissed off. I hate sitting on the sidelines

That’s about when I stopped, I stopped at 26 after blowing out my knee for the 3rd time. Went into a near depressed state for a long while and gained a ton of weight.
Interestingly enough, about 10 months later, I happened to stumble onto a certain 74 dart and brought it home and met you fine people on here. All things happen for a reason I guess

I wasn’t lying the other day when I said what I said. Fema is the absolute worst alphabet soup agency to work with

Anyway… ordered the rest of the parts u need to finish the frame. Once that’s all done, plan is to set the drive drain back in place, followed by the body.
