Just 8 weeks away before I leave for Ouray! My buddy is letting me use his tow rig again and I will get a trailer from one of the local jeep guys. I am still not sure if the better half is going to join or not. I plan on arriving Sunday so I have plenty of time to get into my "Ouray groove".

Crap... It just dawned on me that this is coming up again and in July. I have my annual training event for the reserves so I won't be able to make it.

My to-want list keeps getting shorter as the days tick away. Looks like the to-do list is all that will get done. Dangit!

I reviewed my list as well at the projected temps for the weekend (109 on Sunday). yeah, it's going to get reduced down some.

Sorry I have been AWOL. Between taking on a massive, high pressure, high visibility project at work since September and dealing with some other stuff I have been in withdraw / retreat mode for awhile. Doing ok now and figured I would poke my head in and apologize for dropping the ball.

Wish I could be there folks. I'll be (likely) in California stuck in a big, sweaty Army truck. If it doesn't break down. Please post pics, vids, and updates so I can live vicariously.

Still trying to find a place to stay! Have tried for a couple of months to get a Kabin, but no go. Now looking at other campgrounds in the area. Anyone have any suggestions? Planning on bringing the J10! Thanks
