2009 Moab ZooZu XII

Portal Camping http://www.portalrvresort.com/w/index_3.htm

If you camp at the Portal, let's stay together as a group. Today, I called to get a group site at the Portal. I got hold of a new employee who didn't know how to set up reservations. Tomorrow I should get a call confirming everything.

I'm going to reserve group tent site "C". from May 10th - May 16th for Group ZuZu. It's the best site over there. The camping is great and really lush with grass and trees. There is water on site with showers and facilities only 30 yards away. The bathrooms are always super clean and the showers are as hot as you like.

This is the part I really like. For the last four years, it was only $8 a night. Hopefully, prices haven't gone up. You will only pay for the days you stay at the Portal. Some people stay at indivdual site. I think those are $16 a night. IMO the camping is not as nice and everything else is the same except you spend twice the money.

So if you are camping, see you at the Portal in Group "C". If you are doing the motel, the Red Rock is the way to go. Either place will have a lot of VXs.

Peace.

Tom,
Count me in on that, I have two tents, a big two room, and another smaller for my friend. I will write Portal and let them know I want to be in the group. I don't care about the price difference, but I did tell them I wanted to be grouped with the Zuzu folks. See ya there...I really cant wait, I have been on sea duty for over 9 yrs(Navy), this will be our first trip without kids or other family, and I am obsessed with my Vx, but you all know that already. (I think my wife is trying to come between me and my Vx, she doesn't get it, but she is a good sport and I love her for it)

What airport would be closest. No saying i could come but worth checking the airfairs if someone needs a co-driver

Salt Lake City is the best airport to come in to. There is a regonal airport in Moab and also Grand Junction Colorado which is not too far. Salt Lake is about 250 miles from Moab.

Yeah I agree with Tom. Last year I reserved Group "D" and it wasnt bad but the "C" spot looked pretty nice. I only got a seperate one because the Dates didnt fit the Reno crews time frame and they told me that you couldnt split A, B and C anymore that I had to take the whole area. It was a mess but the place is nice the showers and bathrooms are nice.

This is where we will be at. No cabins but tent and rv sites.

I wish I could somehow convince my manager to give me a 3rd week of vacation.

Tell em' you need a leave of absence...

[nfpgasmask]

Tell em' you need a leave of absence...

I did think of that actually, but that would mean I would need to make some SERIOUS financial plans to cover the loss of a weeks pay AND the expense of the trip.

Wait, are you talking about the job or the marriage?

Yeah, the anniversary date is the biggest issue....
