Off-Road adventures with the Teins... :)
So I went down to the Hill Country this weekend, and I had a BLAST on those Hill Country Roads! Dayum!
The scenery was incredible, and we did nothing but drink beer and kayak on the Llano River on Saturday. However, I have one TINY bone to pick with the hosts of our family reunion... Nobody ever said I had to have a friggin Scooby Doo Outback to get down to the House on the River. Goddammit! Anyhow... it all worked out for the best, and I didn't knock a hole in my oil pan (although I heard/felt some pretty ominous bumps under the car this weekend). So the upside is that I drove some of the most scenic roads I've ever seen in the Miata! Including the shitty 10 miles of gravel/rock/dirt/sand/oil/shit roads that almost took the oil pan off my car... Good Times!
The Teins did just fine on the washboard roads with street settings... although I DID think I might have dragged the bottom off my car a few times in the sand, over the cattle guards - jeeez what a friggin ride... very, very, very good times, in spite of all that.
The BIG upside to the trip was that we went thru Dublin, TX and got a REAL Dublin Dr Pepper (made with REAL Imperial Cane Sugar)! Gotta say that it's wildly different from today's HFCS DP - more bite and the best nose-burning burps since childhood! YES!!!
Pix on Facebook now... but more pix to follow here at some point... zzzzz.
