We took the jeep for a little test drive today. First we drove up the south
bank road and took a dirt road that we hadn't tried before.
The road was rough and we noticed that it didn't feel as rough with the new springs as it would have with the old ones. We got to the end of the road and had to turn around in a tight steep spot.
We had no problems and the tires didn't spin even though we were in two wheel drive.
From there we drove into town to the market to get a few things.
On the way out of the parking lot we noticed that someone had put soap in the fountain.



On the way out of town we decided to go along the north bank road and went down to the river at "Social Security Bar" and drove along a gravel bar.
The last time we were on the bar it was very rough and we bounced a lot. This time it was much smoother and even when we drove through the sand we had no problems in
2WD.

While we were there we watched a guy fly fishing for a while.

He didn't get any strikes while we were watching.

Patti got a picture of a Stellers Jay


I am satisfied that the mod's we had done to the jeep were successful. :o)
