This was a fun trip that to Wharton State Park in NJ. Had a good time, and can't wait 'til the next one.

First, I can't seem to figure out how to multiquote. I wuz nevur guud at figrin out thingz.
Second, the last one is on you tube. I will move over the others then post here. I'm not using photobucket for vids anymore. Too many issues (only 2 issues but that's too many). Bad video reproduction, and it wouldn't let me load the last vid. Kept telling me it loaded 100% then would disappear. Maybe photobucket was confused cause I inserted a still picture in the middle of the video before it goes back to the moving part. Probably confused it. . . . Either that or photobucket can't handle a Punk Rock soundtrack :puker:

Hey DAn, I like the way you laid out the 'players' :thumleft:

I also noticed that my silver wheels are ugly. Particularly when posed with 3 other TBs with black wheels. My shoes would look much better with a coat or 5 of black. I had plans of buying new wheels when I bought the truck but put a hold on it when I found out that GM did us dirty with the bolt pattern size :hissyfit: . There's an incredibly small market for our wheels full of styles that I don't like so much.

Can't seem to figure out how to copy vids from you tube to here. Every time I try something, It just shows the address not the actual video. Anyone have an idea what i'm missing ??

You just take the essential part of the youtube URL, after the "=", which looks like "AheKwL2AYhE" and embed that between the Youtube tags.

I'll put some spaces in a sample to make sure it doesn't go live here:

[ Y o u tube]AheKwL2AYhE[/Y o u tube]

Some puddle splashing. :flex dirty: Couldn't tell how deep some of those water holes were.

And now us pulling into a sandy clearing for a photo-op then over the only man made structure that we saw in there.
