Okay I admit it...

For 20 years I have been a Jeep-o-holic.

I sell Jeeps on the Internet for a Jeep Dealership in Texas I’ve owned eleven Jeeps myself and looking forward to the next most likly; a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee HEMI for my wife.

I drive a 2003 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon and my wife has a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland. Our 13-year-old daughter can’t image driving anything but a Jeep once she has a driver’s license. In fact she tells me that I need to scratch the “Jeep Jamboree USA” sticker off my windshield and replace it with a sticker that says, “No This is not my Boyfriends Jeep” when she starts to drive it.

This leads me to my next question, is Jeep-o-holism hereditary?

She knows I can make up a new sticker since this is on the bumper of my Rubi now.

I think it is hereditary. My thirteen year old boy has already figured out that if he can talk his mom into getting a new Libby he has a shot at her Cherokee. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif I'd hate to see him in a rice burner. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/woot.gif

Thanks guys...

It's like having a support group.

Did you get a chance to see how I now channel my Jeep Energy???

I just built this website where I host all this server space for folks that attend Jeep Jamborees around the county to share Jeeping action photos.

I build all the Photo Albums myself so I can control the content and it gives me a chance to see each photo individually. We even go to a few Jeep Jamborees and make MP3s of the participants that are there so you can listen in on the fun. The site is built primarily as a labor of love I make a few bucks from sponsors but only enough to cover my cost of going to events and replace some lost income while I’m not home selling Jeeps on Jamboree Weekends.

Are any of you going to be attending and Jeep Jamborees this year?

I’ll be happy to post your digital photos if you go to one this year, for you, and anyone else that is there. Our next show comes form the Palo Duro Jeep Jamboree in the Texas Panhandle. I was contacted from a group in NYC that is going to send us their photos from the Jeep Jamboree at the Pocono’s.

I understand that Mark A. Smith was there...

Did you get a chance to talk to him?

Everyone told me to go to that one just to meet Mark since JJUSA was kind enough to add JeepTales to their home page.

Yes, I sure did get to meet Mark Smith..super neat guy..very down to earth..I bought his "Journal" and he autographed it for me..After flipping through the journal my daughter bought one the next day and had him autograph hers by the picture of his tattoo. (on his rear)..He really laughed when she asked him to sign it there..The Journal is incredible reading..Picture of Mark (as he asked to be called) and my daughter in my Photo Gallery...

Try this...

Go to my site www.JeepTales.com (http://www.JeepTales.com)

Look at the photos and Video... then click on one of the three Pod cast links.

If you go to "Past Events" you will see over 2 1/2 hours of audio from that event...THAT IS A PODCAST.

If any one wants to do that from another Jeep Jamboree I can send you all the stuff to build you own Jeep Tales Events.
