The best mudding partner

After Black Lake

The following pictures show you a stock ford exploder that belongs to a young man named patrick russell from charlevoix.

 For some reason he thought he was a better driver and had a better vehicle.

My Dog wondering what this goof ball is gonna do

these next are from Patricks MySpace page.  He is afraid I will put them on the net.

He was stuck and his nylon rope broke.....so I dropped in 2wd and gave him a mud bath.

The brain trust hard a work!!

 

It was a fun day.  Had to leave his truck there until we got out of work, then went back at 12:30am and fished him out.  Long story, his exploder didnt have anything to strap to, so they got a chain and a hook.  Not safe I know, but damn I looked great that day.
