18” too close

[Chapman4266]

So, the boys and I went wheeling at the lake. Went great until....Still went great. Swimming in our skivvies and good times. Thanks to Nick for coming to pull us out. FYI, I got 18” too close to the water. got some pretty good sandstone crawling in before, ...well...good times. The pic of the tracks is right before we went in. Looked good, but...might as well swim when you’re waiting for a tug

Where is this?

Red clay and sand. Lake JB Thomas 15 miles south of Snyder TX. Not much, but all we got

Why did you not have the lockers engaged?

Why did you not have the lockers engaged?

I did. Rear quit. Just FYI, lockers would’ve made no difference. We were stuuuuuuuck.

Had three of my sons with me. Decided to go swimming since we had 2 hrs to wait on a tug. Memories. They all decided they want to lift their trucks after that

That mud will stain some clothes for good been in it. Glad you turned it into a good trip.

Making memories with the kid's, nothing like.

I live in oil country. Everyone I know makes 150k or more. I work for the state as a mechanic. I definitely dont make that. They all say they wish they had more time with family but gotta do it to provide a good life. (They get laid off for months at a time every couple years and sell all the good life toys) I've raised a family with 4 boys and we never starved. I wouldn't trade days like that for anything.

"Jeeping with the family, still fun since 1945" haha

Ya man, its all about getting out with the kids for us. Gotta love getting them into this early.
