Hello all. I hail to you today from your neighbor to the East, CT. My Wife, myself, and our kids are looking at seasonal campsites within 2-3 hours of Hartford Ct for the upcoming season. A little about me...I have been a member of the offroad community for over 20 years. My hobby started as dirt bikes, and atv's but has evolved into Jeeps. I have owner 7 xj's, 2 zj's and an MJ. Currently I roll around in a 99 WJ with a 2" bb and 245/75r16 Muds, (I kind of got stuck with it after rolling my last XJ in September, and my wife took the insurance money and bought herself a mini van. So I got stuck with her Jeep.) I am a professional auto tech by day, and a father and hobbyist welder by night. Our search for campsites also gives me a base of operations for some weekend exploring above and beyond my local trail systems. I have been attached to NeJeep for the last 10 years, and haven't been through PA wheeling since the closure of Paragon (I miss that place). Hopefully I can get to know some of you over the forum and take up some weekend trips. We are also looking into VT, and NH. IF there's anything else I can think of, I'll add it to the post later. Here's some pics.
Here's the one I rolled..

I do have a little redneck in me. My riding mower has 3" dual exhaust (It's a video. Click it and turn up the speakers. Kind of harleyesq)...
