Hello all.
My name is John Ewing.
I live in Brentwood California (in the SF East Bay, not Los Angeles).
2005 Chevy Trailblazer LS with several modifications.
I have been off-roading with the Trailblazer on the sand dunes in United Arab Emirates, mountain trails in Oman, deserts in California, prairies in Canada, and many other locations. I haven't done a lot of overlanding, but am looking forward to it.

I have had a 4x4 as a daily driver since 1989. My current vehicle is a 2005 Chevy Trailblazer that I bought in November 2005 while on a road trip from Long Island NY to Escondido CA for a job change. The pictures below show the TB near the Burj Dubai (UAE) in it's former glory with a custom front bumper and a 3" lift (maximum for the TB without going to wheel portals). When I imported it to Canada in 2011, I had to return the configuration to stock. I worked in Canada for eight years so it stayed in stock configuration until now. I'm back in California full time now so I want to get back into off-roading. I plan on reinstalling the bumper and lift. Then I'm going to do a full overland conversion. I'm looking forward to meeting new people and having great adventures.

Welcome to Overland Bound from southern California.
 
Ola folks ,
we would consider ourselves experienced overlanders , but of a different sort. Both my wife and myself are moving off our adventure bikes and into an ol jeep WJ ( were keeping the bikes for that occasional getaway) . we wanted something to pull behind the motor home that would add another aspect to our travel experiences. so here we are! The Jeep currently is in the build process and progressing daily, looking forward to conversing with like minded peeps about future adventures!. we are out of both, Paso Robles CA and Oakhurst CA.
