I’m heading to Grand Slam West ’09 in Moab this year.
I have a roomy condo in town all to myself.
I'm psyched.

This is shaping up to be one helluva trip!
I just partnered up with someone from Mallcrawlin.com who resides in the Pittsburgh area. The plan is to pick him up on the way out. I’m traveling I-70 straight across to Utah and back, so this will work out great.
Bonus: He has family in Colorado and we have use of a large family sized cabin. We plan on doing some high country wheelin’ in Buena Vista, Colorado, which is 5 ½ hours east of Moab. We are going to stop for a few days on the way back.
The famous trail in BV is Old Chinaman's Gulch. I also know there are a bunch of old mining roads and ghost towns.
tbc...

I know you'll take plenty of pics, but make sure you POST THEM. I'll be home until at least the end of July recovering from surgery, so I'll have plenty of time to look at the pics and hear about your trip. I may even give you a call when I know you're back home. Maybe then we can start planning a RC trip for later in the summer.

Of all the things that I lost, it's my mind that I miss the most.
