Today my wife and I spent a long day off-roading. Our favorite trail was the infamous ‘Heartbreak Ridge.’ However our hearts were not broken. Frankly our lunch spot in the dirt was more ‘bonding’ than a fancy dinner. Considering I had no spotter, my Jeep did very well crawling over many rocks (though I’m not
Our adventure consisted of 8 Jeeps, and 11 persons. We most certainly all had a great time. The weather was beautiful, and the dust was minimal, the scenery was awesome. We were off the road at 0930, and back on the asphalt at 1330. This gave us with 4 hours of pleasurable scenery, v-notches, steep
On this beautiful day that the Lord had made, my ‘first ministry’ (my wife) and I enjoyed an off road excursion through Afton Canyon. Though it was not our primary purpose this day, we were able to pass out some Gospel tracts as well. He who dies with the most toys still dies. But he
My wife and I enjoyed spending ‘Labor Day’ with a wonderful group of fellow off-roaders. First we did a run through Gold Mountain (see my wife’s video from two-months ago), then the Rock Garden. Then our stellar Trail Leader and Trail Gunner got us through both little John Bull, and big John Bull trails –
One week after this devastating fire, I decided to ‘off road’ thru much of it. All the major power poles and lines were already replaced. And various other phases of rebuilding were in process. Sadly I observed some animal carcasses, but I did not include them. I only had my GoPro camera, so there’s no close
When your Jeep un-expectantly hangs-up on a rock, another larger rocks pulls you through and over. A spiritual lesson can be learned thru my own natural mishaps. Music High Drama, by Five Alarm. .
Today my wife and I took-on Gold Mountain up in the San Bernardino National Forest. We left very early in the morning, to beat the heat. It took 4 ½ hours to get through 6.7 miles of off road trail. She drove the entire mountain, and every obstacle. Music in their order. Preliator, by Lisbeth
Missions trip into Big Bear – via off-roading trip to Bulter Peak fire lookout. First an off-road trip to the historical ‘Butler Peak Fire Lookout.’ I then evangelized the off-road community, and then everyone else. The ‘aerial view’ of the Butler Peak Fire Lookout was provided by the ‘Camerajumper1’ YouTube channel. Music ‘Decimation Proclamation’, by
While the wiser people escaped the heat, into either the mountains or the beach. I decided to go to the low desert. It wasn’t as hot as it was last week, but it did reach 112 degrees. Thankfully for my Expulsion Hood, my engine ran normal. Since I was alone, I had to place my
While driving through the mountains, I thought I was hallucinating. 😉 I thought I saw a pretty lady sitting under an umbrella, on-top a lifeguard stand. So I made a U-turn to further investigate….

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful day exploring mountains, forests, streams and canyons. Some thru the Santa Ana River, and then much through the San Bernardino National forest. We then took the ‘long way’ home, thru a Joshua Tree forest in the low desert. Thankfully we did find a couple trails that were rated
Enjoyed a wonderful time with my wife, as we explored Gods creation. Also had many opportunities to distribute Gospel tracts to many that we met along the way. Music ‘Hungarian Rhapsody,’ by Liszt.
My wife and I have never tried this trail until today. But we didn’t have to try very hard. I would rate this trail as not difficult at all, and good for beginners. But my wife and I (my first ministry) had a great time together, and that’s what matters. Music Hot Heat, by Topher
My trail rating and comments are at the end of this video. And yes I’ve renamed this trail. I prefer the music over this trail. – Bill 😉 #manifoldburrito manifold burrito
