checked a few things off the list already.. lots of work left to do.
Thank you!hell yea dude! always wanted to give snowmobiling a go.
•more trips! Besides Barstow…or Lucerne…![]()
I’m still happy to go there instead of nowhere but it would be nice to see some new things occasionallyHAHAHA this is Chelsea's gripe! Everytime she can make it to the desert it's in beautiful Barstow lol
Barstow is trash.. or maybe I just think that on 33x10.5 with 13 inches of travel up front... the 2 track is so deep, I have to drive with a tire on the side and one in the middle to make it through most of the race course.HAHAHA this is Chelsea's gripe!

I feel like there is endless exploring to be done to waste time at a spot that's just moon bumps everywhere...
Maybe I'm just getting old or maybe my truck just sucks ? or both ?
Get it gurllll!I’m so late to this but better late than never, right?!
•read more (went from reading 51 books in 2024 to 6 books in 2025)
•read the whole Bible (going strong!)
•practice shooting way more frequently
•lose weight because I can only blame the baby for so longit’s time to be a MILF! I’ve lost 35 before, I can do it again. (Omg is Andrew embarrassed by this post yet?!)
•more off-road driving practice
•survive teaching my first college coursewhich hopefully leads to being offered more
•actually learn cool truck stuff from checking in here more so I can hold an intelligent conversation about cool truck things?!
•more trips! Besides Barstow…or Lucerne…
Hope everyone’s doing well striving toward their goals!
Yaaass I agree with Chelsea. Barstow is just convenient and holds sentimental value at this point for most but it’s not what it used to be (from what all you old farts tell me) lolIt's not much fun in my truck, either. I've never even taken it down main lol.
