They have become increasingly rare around here. Some people go out of their way to find and kill them, even when they exist far from the nearest house of farm. I would never reveal the location of a colony of rattlesnakes to anybody I didn't trust. I leave them alone and they leave me alone.

Looks like a fun ride and nice jeep, rattlers are pretty common down here, saw this one crossing the road last year.

Didn't happen on a Sunday but today was the first official drive of my A2 this year. Did about 45 miles. Truck ran and drove great. Have some preventative maintenance to do but nothing major.

Jeep looks great but that Weber grill caught my eye, had mine for years. :D, I may have some matching curtains.

Still not ready for making trips yet in mine. Work to do still but most people that see it for the first time have that same exact expression I see in the photo.

Yesterday it was 73 degrees here. Went for a ride above Covington, PA and passed a side by side trail and decided to follow. This was a pretty good climb to the top. Last picture is Rt 15.

The first official trip with the A2. Came down to Montgomery, PA and met up with TJ who drove an RV with his family. Trip for us was 95 miles as we took back roads. It was 91 degrees on the way down. The A2 performed flawlessly.

We took a different route on our return trip. Was 115 miles back. Got rained on 3 times but the sun followed and it was warm. Didn't bother with putting the doors on. It was a fun trip back and the route was very 151 friendly. Went up through World's End state park (PA) and passed through Shunk (yes, actual name).
