It's one of the only places in the whole damn country where you can still feel "alone."

I like! That'll have to be at Rasor where it's open play. Don't want to go off trail otherwise.

<span class="ev_code_RED">That's right, but Rasor is WIIIIIIIDE open!</span>

Although, that might get Bondage arrested since he has the permit.

You know, this might be a good point to get serious for a minute.

I know Toots was talking about free-playing in Rasor OHV area, but everyone on this trip should know that RESPECT for this land is of paramount importance. Even if Big Sister Boxer were not involved, and our right to enjoy our land were not at risk, it would still be important. So much of the Road still looks just as it did when the Indians used it as a footpath, when the first wheeled cart was drug across it by the white man in the 1850's, and when Lt. Beale ran a herd of camels on it as an experiment for the US Army!! (Rumor has it there are still camels out there to this day - descendants of the ones the Army set free when their experiment failed miserably.)

It looks this way and is so historically wonderful because those brave souls who venture into it respect it and truly, "tread lightly." Even with 15 or so Hummers crossing next month, we can leave it looking as good, if not better, than it did when we started.

I don't mean to preach or be on a soapbox, and I know all of you guys (and gals) already know this, but I seriously do love this desert and this trail and just thought it wouldn't hurt to type out a reminder - to all of you and to MYSELF!

MY GOD am I looking forward to meeting you all and driving "The Road." There's been some crap in my life lately. I need my desert fix.

K. Enough serious already. Let's talk about the Bun Boy Motel instead......

NO!

I have a better idea. Let's strategize ways to get DDWH fired.

Uh wait. That won't work. We don't know who DDWH is. Damn.

We're gonna have to strategize a little. Getting to Baker (and the Bun Boy Motel, Massage Parlor and Leather Bar)in one day is gonna require some discipline and planning. We'll make it though, and we'll make sure to spend just enough time to appreciate it all and take some good pics.

BTW Rodster - did you notice when you were there that the largest of the three rooms in the outpost was for the HORSES??? Classic old west.

Back up a page or so and you'll see. No, I really don't want to see DDWH get fired. He just needs a little push so he'll take time away from a busy life to come with us.

Alright, that's it ...

My sense of humor sucks and no matter how hard I try, I'm just not funny. I'll not try to be funny any more!

Rasor already has areas with difficult hill trails that are not part of the Mojave road and.....

Now that you said it first...um...yes? LOL I think it would be for the best, really. There's a lot to see the whole length of the Road and it takes soooo much time getting in to it and then doubling back. You agree?

Yup, I agree. The fort experience can be had through photographs. There's much more to see and do down the trail.

But you ARE funny! My God in heaven - the fact that you are staying at The Bun Boy, "Original Home of the Magic Fingers Bed" PROVES you are a brave and funny soul. I was driving down the road today and just out of nowhere said "Bun Boy" out loud and started laughing. I did! It is about the funniest goddam thing I've heard in a long time. Try this. Just say (to yourself but out loud) "I am staying at the Bun Boy Motel." If you can do it and not crack a smile then ther IS something wrong with your sense of humor. Betchya can't do it.

The best shower I ever had in my LIFE was in Las Vegas, BTW! (Howzzat for a bad segway?) I spent a full week camping and wheeling in the desert and rolled up to the Tropicana in my Jeep (this was in the early '80's). I went straight in, stripped off, and stood under the water in that shower for an hour!!! There was sand and dust and grit in every crack and crevice of my tired sunburnt body and that was sheer HEAVEN! Sometimes the only thing better than the desert is finally getting OUT of it!

Sean-

One thing I wanted to point out...obviously part of this run will be at night, and because its all H2's the vast majority dont have secondary batteries, its imperative that before everyone hits the hay that nothing gets left on...

Also, with this many h2's you probably should call parkway and get some tierods in bulk. haha just playing, my truck will probably be the only one that brakes down if any...the curse of the h1's...

Man. Use the advanced find

Anyhow, shoving a little kid's head out the window might work, but I can attest that doesn't work so well with a fully grown drunken adult woman who's determinidly aiming at the center console when you are driving in inclement weather and trying to shove her head out the window with your free hand. At least that incident was in my Xterra and not the H2. I could forgive it in that spartan little rollover-prone SUV, but such a blemish on the H2 might require invocation of the D-word j/k
