Wow, If I could just make it again. Just got back from a high school reunion, and a Calif. trip to see friends. Don't think another trip is in the
cards this soon. But let us that can't make it know what's new this year.

My friend Mike just bought an '06 Unlimited Rubicon that needs some "Baja Altitude." It is similar to the one pictured below. He plans on running a
6" Long-Arm suspension, 35" Goodyear MT/R (w/Kevlar), 4.56 differential gears, Viair On-Board Air, and this time around, he isn't purchasing a winch.
A good picture of Mike
Not sure if we will make it out this year, but Mike plans on buying up a storm...doing his part for the economy and his passion for Baja travel.

What? You didn't show up!?!
The Mrs. and I went briefly to Venice Beach, and then to Hollywood for some great Colombian food.
Chillin' in Venice
Baja people tend to be population-adverse, but we like crowds...
The Mojarra Frita was great!
By sundown, we were thankfully out of Venice and on our way home since the "Unrest" was well underway, with people fighting, a Police Officer
hospitalized, and the "Vibe" being disturbed...

Ken you missed a lot of Jeep stuff. I never saw so many Jeeps. There's a Jeep, here's a Jeep, everywhere there's a Jeep Jeep Jeep. Really the Jeep was
the vehicle of choice at the show. Andy McMillin's trophy truck. The old Bronco #32 that Chris Wilson drove to a class win in the NORRA 1000 along
with the James Gardner Olds. Not as big a show as years past but still interesting. Several shock makes are coming out with resivoir shocks of stock
type off road trucks and SUVs. Bilstein will have the new 5160 out hopefully by years end for about $150 each. In fact Eric Chase is testing them now
on his chevy truck. Fox has them now for about the same price range. King has them too and had Jeep and Toyota shocks at the show. King is a little
pricey at $750 a pair.

TW, did you spot any Nomads... Surfer Jim perhaps? Thanks for the report. Over on TacomaWorld.com are many photos posted from the expo... about half
were of girls wearing almost nothing (which to the Tacoma guys is better than Jeep photos, anyday!).

I was there Sunday. Show is much smaller than years past. I would rate it "OK" but nothing special. It is more of a JEEP show now. I doubt I will be
attending future shows. Much like the SAND SHOW, the good days are over.

There should be a law against so much cellulite being displayed in public.

Thanks for that Jim... It was pretty sad looking last year... the economy has sure soured so much of what was great!
