Middle GA here, didn't realize it was in Chattanooga. Ah well, it should be a nice drive up :) I like Chattanooga, and have been wanting to make a trip out of it again. I stayed there 1 night on the return trip from Nashville when I bought my BMW, and liked it alot.

I plan on leaving here in the AM, I too may get there early.

FWIW, my '05 TJ Sport is basically stock, on 30" GS-A's w/ 49k on them now, hopefully there will be places for me to ride. I'm excited, get to put the DIY discos I just made to good use :)

I want to go back. Soon.

Afterwords on Saturday we hit up Big River Grille & Brewing Works for some EXCELLENT food and beer. Riverfest was going on so downtown Chattanooga was PACKED. We fired up the CB's to quote Tom "Now we are super rednecks" as we are communicating with each other thru down town. Train was playing live, so we caught a few of their songs while getting ice creame.

Apparently Riverfest is supposed to be going on next weekend too....

I washed and waxed the Jeep today, and cleaned out the inside. I managed to pull out my fender from where I hit the tree.... DON'T TXT ON FACEBOOK WHILE DRIVING!







The sun poped out the indintation, I pushed the light back in and strightened the fender. Ah well, I told myself after the first wheelin trip if I am going to use it off-road, it is going to take on damage and get scratches. Just funny because it's the newest, lowest mileage, most expensive vehicle I've owned, and it dosen't bother me... then take my Lincoln, and I am extremely picky about where I part and the slightest scratch etc...

I was going to drive around with it dirty for a few days, but I decided to clean it up today.
