Part of the Wade Family Tradition is decorating the '55 3B for the Decatur, Alabama Christmas parade. See some of their displays from previous years in Everybody Loves a Christmas Parade.	Lawrence also took the Jeep to the daytime parade in Priceville AL, and it was shirtsleeve weather. But the area occasionally gets snow; see Snow Day! on The CJ3B Page.
The Houston Area Flat Fenders make the Pearland TX Christmas parade a family affair every year.	Jamie Powers and his kids decorated his '63 3B, and for the first time this year, his trailer.
Other 3B owners in the HAFF club include Larry Steed, Mike Zimmerman and Charlie McMurrey. See also the whole crew in 2007 in Everybody Loves a Christmas Parade.	When it gets dark the parade heads out. This is Mike Zimmerman's newly restored '54 CJ-3B covered with lights.
Up north, before the snow fell, the CJ-3Beast known as the "Rockadile" tackled the trails at a Jeep Jamboree in Maine.	Since buying the 1959 3B originally built by James Alan Brown, its new owners have lifted it and added a whole package of off-road equipment.
This 3B dressed as U.S. Army was photographed at a military vehicle show at Lešany in the Czech Republic, home to the large Lešany Military Technical Museum.	Ladislav Sulc and his friend Ales "Duck" Vanek also took their matched pair of 3B's to Utah Beach. See more details in Things Are Not Always What They Seem...
When he's not busy being the behind-the-scenes honcho of the CJ-3B Bulletin Board, Doug Hoffman sometimes gets to take his Jeep for a drive, like this 6-hour trip into the mountains north of Boise, Idaho.	Doug says, "It was great weather, a fun time and beautiful scenery. Temps were in the high 70s, sunny, cool breeze, windshield down, wind in the face -- aaaahhhhhhhh!" He also posted a video on YouTube.
Another regular on the Bulletin Board is Mark "Goose" Dulken, who joined in August 2010 and in less than a year completed a major restoration job on the family 1963 CJ-3B which he had just inherited.	Great action photo of a water crossing was taken by Goose's son. Tires are Cooper 31/10.50's, rims are mid-70's Broncos, and suspension is a Superlift 1" kit.
Mark Stovner built his 1954 CJ-3B to do mountain rescue with Snohomish County (Washington) Search & Rescue. A Chevy V8 powers the upgraded drivetrain, and the paint is 1969 Chevy Hugger Orange.	High hood photos have been coming in from around the world. This one is Fernando Varela's latest rebuild of a 1967 M606 in Brazil. Like his earlier one, it's powered by a GM Iron Duke.
