Anyone feel like a ride in the Pines this weekend? Sunday, 11/3@10

[Piney]

I'm open as to what day. The woods are about slowly back to normal now, finally after a year of drought. For you people that just started riding out here you will see that the area is different to you, but actually getting close to normal for here.
My preference would be Saturday, but Sunday is fine too. If no one wants to go I'll be slogging around out there anyway.

[Vince]

count me in as long as this rain didnt create alot of work that is. not sure which day yet

[zachv]

I will be working on different people's rigs both days, so I'm out. Should be fun out there will all this rain.

[JJ's85CJ]

I would but I have drill this weekend :(
Jenn

[99WranglerGirl]

I'd go Saturday but I don't wanna break her before she gets her lift on Sunday... I'm free Nov 16th/17th!

[Piney]

You will love that lift. It’s surprising how a couple of extra inches of clearance will make things much easier for you. Although it can also get you stuck further out and harder to retrieve.
The week of the 16th is too far in the future for me to even know what planet I'll be on.

[64Jeeper]

Piney, are you going on the tenth for the short run, then the get together at the pic for wings and beer?

[JeepManInNJ]

Jim,

Sunday may work for me depending on Baseball. Sat is Soccer and Baseball all day...

[JeepManInNJ]

Are you going to the Pine Barrens or Pine Barrons this weekend? I need to know so I can dress appropriately.. :D :D

[Piney]

We are going to the Pine Barrens to visit the Pine Barrons. The dress of the day would require an ascot and kilt with multi-colored leggings.The ability to dance a jig is also required.
Sunday is fine, but are you going to show? You know your record of AWOL's has been growing steadily. :D

I don't know about the 10th.

My record of AWOL's, I seem to remember a certian Pine Barrens resident that hasn't shown up to the last 2 runs, 9/29 and 10/19. I'm starting to think that I'd have a better chance of seeing the Jersey Devil than you Piney. :D :D

[64Jeeper]

Oh, and by the way, I should be able to be there on the 3rd, if all goes well. :D

[Jeep_N_Hog]

I'm still broken from that last run. I can't make this one. :(

I don't go on rides anymore when there are a lot of people.

[KingOfThePines]

Either day is ok. If its Sat. an early start would be better. I'll have the girls with me :cool:

I don't know about the 10th.Problem is I don't know if Baseball or Soccer is going to get canceled or not till last minute :mad: Since I'm the coach and GM I have to be there. It will all be over soon but right now Sun is open unless we reschedule Sat to Sun??

Zach...still want to get the spring things?? I can bring to work if that's easier...

Especially since he is doing some work on my jeep on Saturday morning and now I can hit him up for a little reduction in labor rates. Although much of a reduction would make it free, so I'll pass. :D

[Piney]

Ok, looks like the consensus is for Sunday, so lets make it 10:00 at the Pic. So right?

Piney, actually I was going to charge you extra if you took her out and got that thing muddy the day before I put the lift on! :D I am trying to think of the other person that brings over his mud-caked Jeep for me to work on. Who could that be?? Jim, I'll see ya Sat. morning. Tell Susan we said Hi!

i might be able to make it for sunday. my hunting people have to get their priorities straight :rolleyes: i should just go up there and bring jeepnhog with the smoke pole rifle thing, i think muzzle loader is still open.(wish it was my place so i could bring others :( )

Someday I'd love to run the Pines. However.. it will need to be when I can take an extended road trip (with the Jeep on a trailer). :D

[Ber - 99TJ]

If you guys go Sunday, Im in.

I know you hunt with a bow, but I hunt with my jeep. Here is a picture of a bear I dispatched with the jeep. They are usually a little flat, but the meat is nice and tender.

[Jeep_N_Hog]

Do they allow regular rifle hunting and "smoke pole :D " hunting in the Pines where we ride Jim?

We disturbed quite a few archers on that last ride out there. I was a little concerned riding out there on a Saturday THEN! With bullets zingin' around? ...dunno 'bout that. Sunday is probably the better day for this. But since I ain't goin', I really have no say. Just a thought.

I'm so excited
and I just can't hide it
I know
I know
I know
I know I want you, want you! (to install my lift that is LOL)

[Piney]

I think I'll lead the end of the ride straight to Zach's house. We can all supervise and make catchy little comments while he's trying to work. He loves that! :D

When he works on my jeep I'm required to stand no closer than 50 yards or I'm charged double.

Sunday is probably the better day for this. But since I ain't goin', I really have no say. Just a thought.i think the whole state is shotgun and archery only, not sure about smoke poles. i used to work for ***** sporting goods and i remember all the jersey hunters complaining that they couldnt use high powered rifles. actually, you can use muzzle loaders, we used to sell all our in-line muzzel loaders to people from jersey because you werent allowed to use them in PA at the time.

[greentjdude]

piney, i was thinking abou hunting over there but the problem is:

Non-Resident Bow & Arrow Hunting $135.50

Deer Permits for Bow, Shotgun or Muzzleloader $28.00

:eek: :eek:

and i thought jersey wanted to knock down their deer population. it cost more than if i lived in jersey and wanted to hunt in PA.

[Bri'sToy]

Should be able to make the ride Sunday. I'm in the need of some good mud. My keyboard is dying. I'm loosing letters. Took it apart and there is a kink is a couple of the runs.

See-ya Sunday
Brian

[KingOfThePines]

I still have my arsenal, but I'm not allowed to hunt anymore. http://www.centraljerseyjeeps.homestead.com/files/greensrevenge.jpg

forgot to add:

bagging the jersey devil, priceless :D

When he works on my jeep I'm required to stand no closer than 50 yards or I'm charged double. LOL Which is why I'm debating a) do I want to hang around and distract him by asking oodles of questions or at least watch and learn? or b) go somewhere else... HMMMMMMMMMMMMM MAYBE, just MAYBE I could ride shotty with someone while I'm outta Zach's hair? (Never thought about that till now!!)

Zach and Annette went to the hospital about 7:30 this morning. She may have had the baby by now.

You won't have anyone to pick-up Brian.Zach won't be working on any jeeps this weekend. :D

[99WranglerGirl]

Yeah I won't need a ride, I'll use my own Jeep... TY though...

And I'll be coming from the Betsy Ross Bridge...

[zachv]

I just got home after being in the hospital since 8:30 AM! What an awesome day!!!! I am so excited. We had a baby girl and she and Mom are doing great. The delivery went so smooth I was astounded and relieved. I didn't even faint! She was 7 lbs. 12 ounces and almost 20" long. Good size little lady. We are naming her Hannah Carol. We were pretty set on Paytin, but when I saw her I thought Hannah, but said nothing. Then, when Annette saw her she said Hannah also!

I hope you all have a great time on the trail and I plan to be out there soon. I am trying to teach Hannah how to drag a tow strap! :D

PS Thanks eveyone for another good day out in the Pines. There should lots of good pictures coming (not from me).

[Vince]

Congrats man ! Glad everyone is ok.

A great run today the girls and I had a blast!

[KingOfThePines]

Thanks Jim. Another fun filled adventure in the Jersey pines. Michelle escaped unscathed and enjoyed herself. Kristin was fine after Pretzel Incident II. (Can't believe I got stuck) :rolleyes: Thanks Vince for bringing the girls, Kristin enjoyed getting hammered on Shirley Temples smile.gif
Above the roar of the soft top and the drone of the swampers a new noise reared its ugly head. When I got home I put the jeep on stands, pulled the drums and found my noise. So thats why the pedal goes to the floor. No brakes. Goody. Been wanting 4 wheel discs anyway. Hope to be up and running before the next ride. Thanks to all. Pics will be posted in an hour or so. :D

[RussK]

Zach congratulations to you and your wife.I wish the three of you the best.

[greentjdude]

thanks kids! :D

well, terri and i followed piney past his house and toward route 73 and all of a sudden up ahead terri is on the shoulder with a tranny that was wounded once again. i got in and drove it back to my house and played with the shifter for a bit and she is able to get 1st and 2nd gear only. she left here around 5'ish so i dont expect her to make it home until 7-730 with the limping tranny. if zach is reading this i told her to ask you about possibly putting in a tranny vent when you are doing the lift, just wanted to give you a heads up.

i might have pics later on tonight.

[Piney]

Sorry about the devastation and hope everything works out. Guess it’s a good thing I didn’t take you down hell trail and woodcutters...see I ain’t all bad! :(

[Vince]

Here I was thinking you didnt go down woodcutters trail because you didnt want to bury the jeep again.

[99WranglerGirl]

Ya'll talkin bout me? :D

Yeah I JUST got back (after grabbing a Pizza) from the trip, man am I beat.

It finally went up from second while going 60mph (RPMs around 4000) when all the sudden I felt her smooth out and go down to 2500 rpms, then when I got to route 30 and stoplights I played with it a little more, I could really tell the difference between the gears then.

One word about this weekend: VENT! Gotta stop this from happening again :mad: I was pretty upset about it heh...

OK more than one word: THANKS PINEY! Small groups are good out there, we went through a LOT and I got a bunch of pics I'll upload later after I fiddle with them.

NOW I need to get my digi to work again (got the pics off of it smile.gif )...

Thanks Matt, Melissa, Bristoy, Vince, Piney, etc smile.gif

[KingOfThePines]

Pics are done. (http://community.webshots.com/user/mudstud) Sorry to hear about your transmission Terri. Mine is howlin' like an alley cat.

Mudstud, thanks for the pix! Sorry we couldn't stay for wings and a cold one.

Terry, we wuv wthe wew weyboard ;)
Hopefully you will be up and running soon

Thanks Piney for the lead again. My little one now knows who PINEY is.

Hope everyone else enjoyed the junkfood. The bag of peanuts landed up on the floor somehow so guess what happened to them :(

Cheers,
Brian

[greentjdude]

here are some of my pics web page (http://mywebpages.comcast.net/greentjdude/pines.htm)

yes, mudstud, that tranny is starting to sound odd :confused: if you need new drums or anything like that let me know i have a set of "extra" ones for my tj if they will fit. they are even freshly cut. if you are gonna go with discs just go find an exploder axle with rear discs ;)

terri, glad you made it home!

Hell I didnt even make the toys for tots run...Work is FINALLY starting pick up looks like I might even have to work this Saturday...Wheelin time is going down but mod fund is getting deeper!!!

[Bri'sToy]

snack wagon What are you talking about?

My little one bought a book home from school today "Blackbeard the pirate and other stories of the Pine Barrens". It talks about the NJ Devil and the buried treasures where we wheel. Told her to ask Piney for a history tour one day.

Broke out the pressure washer after work and gave my toy a good scrubbing. There is lots of brown bark rubbing/scratches up the winshield frame and the corners of the hood. Tomorrow it's the inside.
