Just got back from driving and fishing the Forestry Trunk Road from Coleman to Edson. Lotsa photos taken… will share more later. Right now… must has a vacation from my vacation. =)

Got a “Jeep Alarm / Starter” installed today for $650. The Scotch will soon help me forget how much I paid for it.. and also give me “peace of mind”. Yah, after it already got broken into once after owning it for a week.. and having my Dodge Shadow, and bike ripped off in this “hood”.. I have been looking forward to this “mod” for awhile.

I also installed a Cargo Rack the other day, and am awaiting some more mods that I ordered, that I can now install seeing as the alarm is in place.

FACT: Cars were invented to have a faster way of fleeing from Chuck Norris. Not to be outdone, Chuck Norris invented the Jeep.

Picked up my 2001 TJ Wrangler yesterday, with only 87,000 KM on it’s she’s well kept. I bought this off my buddy Roy Ramdeen whom already has two other Jeeps. Looking forward to fishing season this year indeed.

Scratch and I helped out as instructors today at the NLFTF beginners fly tying course. After the course was over we headed out in his new Jeep ‘Libby’ down to the banks of the North Saskatchewan to check out the conditions and play in the mud a little (Flickr Video Here).

As we did, we saw a lady in a 2008 Jeep Wrangler X with her four kids in the back doing the same. We offered up a hearty ‘Jeep Wave‘ as she passed, and of course it was promptly returned. Way cool!

Oh yah, I also snapped a rather odd find of some techno trash in the bush here. Amazing what, and where some people dump stuff!

Tomorrow, my buddy Vince from the club is going to instruct me in how to drive his standard TJ. Aye, I’ve not driven a stick before – so having an opportunity to learn will open up my choices in looking for that new Jeep. I promise I won’t burn your clutch out Vince! I am looking forward to it.

Rare find for a Class B camper! For Sale E-150 Econoline (5L/V8) [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Econoline#E-Series ], Okanagan Camper van with raised roof (stand comfortably), Apollo awning, table and seating area folds out to sleep two adults, upper double bunk for two kids. Three way Fridge (may need a freon re-charge), two burner LP stove, sink, and LP furnace, with lots of storage space and privacy divider. Both batteries recently replaced, and we are only the 2nd owner. Purchased in 2000 from a local Ford dealer in Edmonton with a low 112,000 KMS on it. Now has approximately 160,000 KMS (put on less than 7,000 KM a year). Runs great, regular safety done and oil changes, no rust, shines nice, and has good gas mileage. Selling only because our family has outgrown it, and daddy needs a new 4×4. Asking $11,500 OBO – or will consider trades for a Jeep (TJ/Cherokee).

Update: April-11-2008

I took some interior photo shots tonight for a couple of interested buyers. I posted them here on Flickr along with some shots of it from past vacations in it.

Update: April-14-2008

I got a CarFax account for looking up new Jeeps over the next 30 days – must sell this before then. I ran one here on my BobSled, and you can e-mail me for a PDF copy of it for your piece of mind without paying the $30 for the report.

I DARE YOU TO COMPARE!
