SSSS Trip Reports

Spent the day Sat at the SSSS. It was great meeting up with some friends that I haven't seen in a while. Lots of vendors and $$$ food and $$$ drinks. Weather was perfect and it looked like a great turnout. I hit all the vendors, asked lots of questions and luckily didn't spend too much money.

It was cool to talk to Doug Fortin about transmissions. He really knows his stuff and answered all my questions. I feel much better about that noise I've been having, its nothing to worry about.

I went to Sand Sports Mag to get the current issue so I could see my photos and they didn't have any there. I was thinking WTF??? Only had older issues??? Lucky for me my subscription must have kicked in and it was in the mail when I got home.

Hit up the BLM and got my season Pass for Dumont and made my way over to the ASA booth. They had the new calendar and I got several copies. Looks fantastic and I got lots of compliments.

I bought a whip mount for my quad and went half on an LED light kit with a friend. I only needed 1 light.

I did bring the camera and took some photos. Geez, the lighting indoors was terrible. I was struggling to get anything decent. I had to relearn some mistakes I've made over the years. Not a good photo session for me but I think you all might still like them.

All the photos are HERE

SLIDE SHOW

Nice pics. What lense are you using for the fisheye effect?

Wasn't a fisheye but wide angle lens. Your noticing the distorted look if I get close and wide. There are some things it's not good for and people are one. Took a lot of correction to get some normalcy to a few shots.

Seeing the RZR 4 has made up my mind. Only need to confirm measurements.

The upper deco of this hauler was pretty cool. Made you feel like you were in a pontoon.

I walked around all day sat. with my father in law and little boy, and got so sunburnt. :beerpint: Had a blast though!

We must've missed a building, because I saw some pics that I don't remember seeing. Awesome pics,btw. :DDRrocks:

Ate like pigs; had a turkey leg, and one of those 18" dogs :beerpint:

Also, found my boy one of those 1:24 Jada die cast sandrails I've been looking for since last Christmas.

Walked around the rv displays; really diggin the discovery with the full length slideouts :broke: Just a hair more room in those than my old bus :beerpint: I got that one "penned in" on the wish list :beerpint::beerpint:
