The yellow and orange rails were a local father and son that Jerry knew.  They lived 6 miles from the dunes....   beathorse.gif~c200 I forgot their names. Real nice guys that knew the dunes very well. We flew through all of the big dunes in no time that morning.
That was Chris and his son Thad. Chris fixed my toter a few years ago.They know the dunes like it is their backyard.Thad led us well!

I wondered if that was chris. Only met him the one time, seemed like a great guy. The front end looked familiar.  Thats a shame lance didn't make it. Wonder if Lance sold the rail?

I bet Chris and his son know st a as well as Glenn and Jerry know lLS.

What did your truck get for mpg? Not that it matters cause it was worth the expense.

A friend asked me once why I would drive so far just to stop and drive even more for fun and how is that fun.   :m.

The DIC shows 11.1 MPG for the entire trip.  Hand calculated it is around 10.4 MPG.
