Back in the summer of 1991, when I was 10 years old, our family drove out in the middle of the woods in our 1985 Bronco II. My dad was able to test out the 4 wheel drive capabilities of our family vehicle.

Last weekend, we sort of recreated that event. Instead of my daughter going, though, I had her stay home with my mom to take a nap, so that my dad could join us for the trip.

He sat in the back with my son, serving as a guide, since I had yet to take a whole drive anywhere in just 4 wheel drive in our family’s new acquired Jeep Wrangler.

What I didn’t realize going into this drive to Billy’s Ford, which is located just a couple of miles north of Little River Falls, was that I was actually going to get drive across Little River itself!

It was so much fun, that, as you can imagine, I’m eager to get back there!
