August/September 20 Photo Comp, Great Memories

[TPC]

This months topic was chosen by the July '20 winner mudski

Great Memories

I often look back on trip photos and think what great memories they are and think I will have trouble limiting to only a handful of photos to enter.
I am sure we all have photos that we look back on with fond memories.

I am making the comp go over 2 months as I will be unlikely to have good internet at the end of August as I will be working remotely. As it is over 2 months it is ok to have up to 6 entries.

Remember to follow the rules shown in pink below.


Regards
TPC

Hi Cuppa
Is the rubber matting still on the sand across the river and the big hole just as you come out of the river on southern side?

Hi Cuppa

Hi Wiz, rubber matting still there but no big hole to speak of. Would change every time it rains I reckon. Click on this link to my blog & scroll down to watch me driving across. (Shelfo crossing too).

I have changed my mind, we need more votes.
This comp has been going for 2 months and has the lowest voting we have ever had and has multiple entries on same count.
Will leave it open for voting for another day.

Driving 2 Krisso's place at Captains Flat for a forum meetup... pretty sure Krisso said the commo would be fine getting in.... forgot 2 mention I would need 2 drive it like it was stolen and there would be damage, lucky I had Roofy 2 snatch me getting back out after the rain

Great memories right there...esp of Roofy offering 2 stay in front with the snatch attached just in case :) RIP Craig :(
