Mine is from 2001 … and not a handful sold in Greece , so oddly enough I have to get parts from the States

Kalimera (good morning) Spent my first night in the Trooper , wasn’t perfect - but it was perfect if you know what I mean.

Thank you Bjoern! “El-Draco”! While I am waiting for my membership swag to arrive from the States, he sent me some stickers and patches. We will hopefully meet on the trail someday!

I might need one of these grills for my rig! And homemade wine !

At the workshop finishing up the repairs on the Trooper .. and today is Tsiknopemti, a religious festival where they grill meat. Gotta love a workshop that has a bbq in the back !

It’s taken over my free time on my phone … which is a good thing !

I think a lot of people are waking up to the reality that “free” social media apps come with a hidden price… and our desire to connect has been used for profit and to manipulate. I hope OB stays like The Great Outdoors.. a natural place to connect, learn and grow.

Over the last few days I have spent way more time on OB than all the other social media apps, and its a lot more useful.. would OB be considered social media?

Getting the trooper services and mechanically sorted .. hopefully will go on first overland trip this spring !
