Push on with my fabrication venture and hopefully get to a point where we can do some traveling again.

Looking forward to doing Kruger Park's Lebombo Trail in September and continuing to Inhambane and down to Kosi Bay.

The very tame but much acclaimed Seven Passes road done and dusted this past weekend.

One down many to go. Next one will be Nature's Valley which is becoming a 4x4 obstacle course on the EC side, and Baviaans.

Our lives are unfortunately influenced by so many external factors. Even Darwin would not agree to his own theory anymore.
Covid, load shedding..Zumaruption, Ramaphosakak.. Eksdom all actually influence us daily and just as we drive a goal to achieve, something or somebody throws a spanner in the works.
My goal, live every day to the fullest, 4x4 hard, work hard, play hard.
I have seen and leant that life has absolute no gaurentees, not even the air we breathe.
I say, be like Landrover drivers.. ONE LIFE LIFE IT
CARPE DIEM.
Life will take you where ever you want it to take you...as long as you drive a 4x4
