Given the tension around here lately, I thought I'd post something that hearkened back to a simpler America, the bond between a father and his son set with some beautiful scenery thrown in for good measure. It's only about eight minutes long, but well worth the watch.

I too have a 53 CJ3B that’s still kicking. And it too lives outside.

“There were dirt roads, sandy roads, where a normal car would not make it. . .”

Sounds like where my dad would go in a station wagon, with Mom and 6 kids, towing a good-sized trailer. A lot of those trips were adventures.

I was still driving my 53 to work back during Desert Storm. It was a hoot driving next to the soldiers in their Hummers, going to the Barbours Cut Terminal for their trip over.

Old ranch boss of mine told me, “Everybody should go through owning a Willys jeep...once.”
