MOAB 2005
March 19-26 Kathy Crook is organizing this great trip with 7 days of
wheeling, and condo arrangements. Here's the info from Kathy...
I have a competition the weekend we arrive - so I will need
to be there by Friday March 18th. The competition is on
Saturday & Sunday March 19 & 20.
Depending on your schedule - you can come up with us on
Friday or arrive Saturday and meet up with us. Let me know what
date works best for you.
As of right now, the condo will be reserved beginning
Saturday March 19th (unless we have enough people to fill it up
on Friday night).
The Jeep Safari will be going on this week. We are going to
be there seven nights. Arrive Saturday March 19 and depart
Saturday March 26. It is a 700 mile drive - but you can go
70+mph after you are out of California!
The three bedroom condo sleeps 8 adults and the price is $225
per night plus tax. It works out to be $31/person per night
($220 per person for lodging for the week). The kids count as
adults - but I think we can sneak 1 or two of them in.
As of right now, there are 7 adults and 3 children confirmed.
Condo Group
Ed & Kathy + 1 kid
Tom & Lisa + 2 kids
Terry F.
Jeff & Julie + 1 kid (waiting on confirmation)
RV Group (Spanish Trail Arena -
800-787-2751 call and make reservations asap!)
Jack & Lesley
Steve & Irene
Ken & Kay
I will probably reserve two condo's at this point
- I can cancel 14 days prior if we do not need the
second condo.
Please contact me and let me know if you are
still planning on going! I need to know soon so I
can reserve the condo.

CORVA
FosterDogs-
YUM
Raymond and I would like to Thank everyone for
all the donations and help for CORVA this year. Everyone does a great job of
helping before during and after the event. This year we donated to CORVA
$701.00. This is a great job everyone and give yourselves a big pat on the
back!!!!!!
-
The Bauers - Now have a new trailer
to go with the new motorhome. Hey, they can bring the Jeep and
Christopher's quad. Congratualations!!
-
Danny
Davis - Well, he did it! The
Jeep made it out for New Years. Ths headlights may not have been
in yet, but boy does it sound god and it ran GREAT!
 No
Problems. Ne is now working on getting the headlights and the
taillights put in. A big THANK YOU to David Castillo for all of
the help especially in the last week. He helped a few late nights
to get the Jeep ready to go.
-
Ben and Linda Fakkeldy’s Jeep- Well,
when Ben and Linda showed up at New Years and brought the Jeep out of
the trailer we thought we had all ad too much to drink already.
Ben had one tail light up and one down, but he had been working on the
fenders and one of them was not done yet. We had fun with that all
weekend. Ben is also working on the retrofitting wheels to accept
Bead Lock Rings. He has done new front fenders, Rock sliders for
the sides, and is planning fuel injection for a future project.
-
Rumor has it that Joe McFarland is
working on his Jeep again!!
-
Scott Smith - Broke and axle at CORVA,
but there was a fix close by. A fellow Trailmaster, Jack Jr. had
one in his Jeep.
-
Raymond Davis - New Years as we all
know was quite muddy, and having mud on your headlights is not real good
as Raymond found out. He didn't see where the road was washed out
coming back to camp and hit it going just a bit too fast. Well, he
bent the right front spring and probably other damage. He hasn't
gotten farther yet.
-
Terry Flood - Getting ready for Moab.
Putting the wide track model 30 in the front and also .456 gears.
-
Steve Foster - Broke his transfer
case at New Years, but it always helps when you know someone that is
coming out later. A phone call to Scott and Jerry, and his parts
were on the way. A quick swap and the Fosters were ready for the
trail again.
-
John Lewis - The Mutt got broken into
just before New Years. Stole the radio, and the tool roll.
The Jeep engine was rebuilt in time for CORVA. Also,
recurved the distributor and voila, that high speed pinging is all gone
now. Next project is to do a proper wire job and add in an extra
gas tank.
