Tahuya Videos!

I made another run to Tahuya with Jeff and his JK, and Jay and his XJ. My brother Chuck, my son Daniel, and I rode in the trusty XJ but stayed out of the really deep water this time. Jeff brought along his video camera so we took turns filming. I didn't do much that was video worthy, but I just had to share some of the shots we got. I will make a feeble attempt at letting the videos speak for themselves. I can see now that this new "discovery" will only lead to delicious carnage in the future as we try to make more "interesting" video. Hopefully I don't break my rig first. My 212,000 mile daily driver can only take so much!

Korvettenkapitan Jeff proves that his JK wit der schnorkel can handle the water. Leave me alone, I don't know German...I make this stuff up.



Jay hits the rocks...literally:)

...but not this time


It's a good thing this guy has a snorkel. I need to figure out how to put music to these videos because my narration sucks.


And now for some ruts. Listen for Jeff's front differential making hard contact at the end. No, I didn't try this one, although now I wish I had. I woulda made it:)


I love this video! Jay uses copious amounts of skinny pedal to power through the ruts and loses his right front fender flare at the end. Jeff's laughing cracks me up!


This is the section of Tahuya that ate my fender flares last year. It's steep but turned out to be a non-event this year. Jay comes down after Jeff, with Chuck spotting.


Finally, some video of my XJ. Daniel slept peacefully in his car seat through this one. I would occasionally check to make sure his bobble-head was still attached.


This one is boring but I like to watch videos of my Jeep, so skip it if you want to.


I like this one. Too bad it's short.


And now for some XJ poser pictures.





That's it until next time. We'll certainly be taking the video camera again.
