364 days to get that rig a running Hoot... (or at least one of them). Or a least to make plans to show up. ;)

Phoenix is hot as heck. I am really missing Ouray right now.

Down to the hour! You're assuming it all goes as planned. I got delayed by a few hours. You got delayed by a fire but I am really glad you showed up.

So what's the deal with the rear seal?

There are two waggys in Craig's family, Fancyfree's with a lift and 401 is her daily driver, I am sure with the proper amount of begging she would loan it to us for a week!














Someday I'll park Crom on your rig

This week away from Ouray has been tough. I miss the cool San Juans. I miss the friends.

How long until the next invasion? :)

We'll be there again. Already started working out the problems we encountered this year so we can join "the group " more next year. 115+ heat warnings here today, would sure be nice to be back at 7000+ elevation.

If it didn't hit 100 over the weekend here in Phoenix it sure was close! Twelve weeks from now I should be hanging out at the KOA making Eggs Benedict. I am already looking forward to the cooler weather.
