I took Jaime and Franziska up for some 4x4ing in my 4runner to show them an enjoyable American pastime.  Jaime is studying at TU Delft and Franziska is a friend of Jaime’s from when they were in high school or early college.

We went up over Yankee Hill and then onward to Kingston Peak.  The mailbox at the top of the first section of road out of St. Marys Glacier and Alice is in good shape although I couldn’t find the guest log.

Someone recently replaced the American Flag that always seems to be up there.

My truck looking great as always.

Don’t stop me now (’cause I’m having a good time)
Don’t stop me now (yes I’m having a good time)
I don’t want to stop at all… yeah!

Both Jaime and Franziska took turns driving the 4runner and had an absolute BLAST doing it.

Waiting for a truck to get off the shelf road so we can proceed forward.

My beard matches the truck.

Jaime spied me through the windshield.  I really should label all of my switches and tidy up those lights…
