😂😂 Still cracks me up.

Ok to start here's the article... https://manofmany.com/rides/cars/toyota-overlanding?amp 

A couple of things, Toyota isn't doing anything new or innovative with this, they are just riding a wave or popularly to make an extra dollar. I haven't found the price of this monstrosity, but being from Toyota motors I know a couple of things about this. 

A) it's going to be over priced and under engineered. 

B) the wheel bearings are going to fail. 

Tell me I'm wrong! 😂

Oh and yes if Ram came out with one I would probably consider buying one!

Someone put a 440ci engine in an 86 Samurai! That's freaking awesome.

Looking for a great podcast?

Those who follow me on the big three (Facebook, IG, Twitter) have heard me talk about Rigged For Dirt from time to time. It's by far my favorite podcast. The last two episodes in my opinion should be in the radio hall of fame! Ok maybe not, but I found them very interesting and felt I needed to share them with others.

Goodbye Social Media!

Goodbye Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter I’m logging off now for Lent. I may be back on April 4th. My Email is attached to my bio as well as my blog, if anything earth-shattering happens drop me a line? While I’m walking away from the big three, I’m not turning my back on the virtual world, I just think I need time away, and I think this is a great excuse to take it. I’m going to spend my free time reading the Bible, an autobiography or two, and probably a few novels.

Ok, it’s been a while since I posted. Been busy working and surviving the big city, my day-to-day life is boring as hell right now! But I’m planning an adventure or two! Hopefully, I’ll be able to afford a tank of gas to take them! We’re already seeing a spike in prices here in the valley, I paid $2.59 on Saturday 🤦‍♂️ I may have to start training for a long hike if prices top $3 or higher this summer! Who’s with me?

Weekly newsletter of The Bearded Overlord - Issue #1 | Revue

Well, I started a newsletter on my Twitter account where I post daily of people getting lost and hurt in National Parks and in the wild in general. I thought I would play around with the ideal, and guess what? People started subscribing! So I guess I have to do it for reals now! 😂

Follow along if you're interested.

An early morning trip

Took an early morning trip back to Kingman to visit family, and made sure I took  as many dirt roads as I could to get there! I was a little unprepared for 30 degree weather, am I getting too used to the warm Phoenix valley temperatures? I hope not. 

Now when I get back, it's time to start planning a proper camping trip. I'm still thinking southeastern Utah, but since it might be late spring Colorado is calling my name.
