Thank You to everyone that made this years round up possible! It was an awesome and unforgetful event!  A special thank you goes out to BigBird for being super generous and letting me use his heated shower since i was going on almost 5 days with out a shower since i basically hit the road directly after work to get to the springs for the round up.

I want to personally thank Marlin for his help with the broken XJ, We really appreciated your willingness to unload half your truck to get the tools we needed to get moving again.

I also want to thank everyone who got stuck behind us going up cadillac who not only offered help, but words of encouragement as they got around us. I didn't hear one person complain although I would have certainly understood if you had.

Thanks to everyone at Marlin Crawler and all the other volunteers who made this event possible and one of the best yet!

Huge thanks to Sean and Corey for getting us back up and running after having a yard sale at Fordyce. We wouldn't have been at the Rubicon if it wasn't for you guys.
