Man, it was a long, cramped trip, but we finally made it back. I have to say that the LJ served us well again. We had to adjust the fuel mixture a little, but the extra cargo space sure came in handy. And at just 630 pounds under lunar gravity, who needs lockers? First, I had to upgrade to the new Firestick antenna. Crawling out of Plum Crater, near the Apollo 16 landing site. Here I am goofing around back at camp. Check out that vertical! Michael Jordan can eat my shorts. Some of the trails were a little harder than others. It's always a good idea to walk ahead if you're not sure about the terrain. Thanks to my honey for spotting. Lunar surface a barren wasteland? No way. I was able to find enough firewood to fill the LJ. A little oxygen would have been nice, however. Combustion is overrated. These are all the pictures I was able to recover from my compact flash card after a sunspot fried it. Thank goodnes I was able to recover these or nobody would have believed I went. Moab, schmoab.

Here I was thinking I had too much time on my hands ....I'm currently building a gas powered (weedwhacker motor) blender for my ATV club camping trip this September. Nothing like making margaritas around the camp fire

Nothing like making margaritas around the camp fire Your next stop is this: www.punchbaby.com/media/gitfakt/clips/cool/V8ChainSaw.aviWork has been so serious lately, I just needed a few hours of complete nonsense. Hard to argue anything other than "mission success". You, on the over hand, are actually producing something useful.
