            baby jeeps

            welcome another TX'n. U'll like this forum (great people), and a FSJ is a lot more interesting and unique than baby jeeps. We just had work O thon - meet and greet @ Elliotts in Decatur weekend before memorial day. Thinkin of a campout easy trail ride in deep east TX when cools.

                              Welcome to the insanity. I saw your Cherk on CL awhile back. Glad you were able to snag it.
                              He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. Faithful and true to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.
