A few more Jeep Parts.
These are a few more of the parts I've run across...

So, Gail and I were getting ready to settle in for the night, and I noticed a flashing red glow outside of the window. It turned out to be 9 of Orange County's Fire Rescue trucks outside of our hotel... fully ready to battle a hotel fire.
We had a ladder truck, air & light rig, at least one ambulance. I casually wandered down to the lobby, past the fire fighters suited up with air tanks and axes, and asked the Fire Chief what was up. "Someone smelled smoke up on the 4th floor."
Here is the other video... They had SO much fun doing the relay. Competition keeps them sharp and focused...
We have been having a blast at Hockey Camp this week and it isn't over. Here are a few images and a couple of videos from the first half of the week. Honestly, I haven't been shooting as much as I'd like, but I have been there for most of the action. I'm having too much fun watching and cheering to worry about shooting the pics and video.
The kids all seem to be having a blast. Hockey is a FAST moving game, and training is equally fast paced. The kids are constantly moving. There isn't time to be bored on or off the ice. There is a little bit of down time, but not a lot.Â
One of the big challenges with hockey is the gear... as in getting kids into their gear for the ice sessions. But, there are a bunch of coaches and they are helping with the kids... and there are a few parents that are staying throughout the day, they are in the locker rooms getting skates tied and gearing up the kids.Â
And for MY little guy, he sure is tired at the end of the day...
Here is the last part of the GBR's Mud4Blood pictures. It was a great event this year... looking forward to next year's event.Â
All together I shot well over 200 pictures during the day... Even with editing, I'm sure that between the car shows there are over 150 pics.Â
Mud4Blood is a very family friendly event. Kids, dogs, Moms and Dads can all come out, see some cool rides and talk with like-minded folks. We usually have several 4x4 clubs from the Atlanta area represented, and that makes it a great place to find a club. If you aren't a 4x4 person, we had a couple of non-4x4 clubs out this time... Next year we will be working on building on the non-4x4 portion of the displays.Â
But, donating blood is the real reason for the event... And for every pint donated, there is the potential to SAVE 3 LIVES!Â
This was the 7th year for the GBR4wd Club's Mud 4 Blood event. It has been a very popular event in the 4 wheel drive community since its inception, but this year also welcomed low-riders and a couple of street rods. Godfather Customs, Hooters, Rugged Ridge and 4wheel Parts also had a presence.Â
There were kids games, raffles, a silent auction and of course... a Blood Drive for LifeSouth. This year the goal was 100 units of blood... and the early word is that we exceeded the goal.Â
