I went to my first Jeep "thing" yesterday - a "rolling wave" for a boy's 9th birthday. The back story: his dad is a Jeeper and the family goes on off-road / camping weekends. Dad is being deployed to the Middle East and will miss his son's birthday. Dad asks his off-road pals to "take care of Jax on his birthday" and word spreads among a couple Jeep clubs.
Between 20 and 30 Jeeps met at the nearby high school, and we lined up. A couple plain black SUVs went to get the family, and drove them by us, "on review." When the SUVs passed the group, the Fire Engine, MD CHART truck and two State Troopers lead us in the procession back to the family's house. The Engine and Troopers blocked traffic for us.
I could only get one shot, as we lined up and waited for the family to review us.
