Moab XIV 17May-21May 2011

[spaceCADETzoom]

I'm like "going to Disney world" excited right now. have a tent site at pack creek from sat through wed, and wll probably splurge on a hotel for the rest of the week... Man, Ive been spending like crazy this last week on all sorts of things i thought id use in moab (and the zombie apocalypse) but never got around to buying til now..

Hows the weather in UT in May?

Any folks leaving colorado Saturday or maybe Sunday and want a complete stranger in the convoy? I even bought a shiny new cb radio to talk to truckers...oh wait, that sounds weird.

This reminds me...are y'all using CBs this year? I think I might have one laying around in storage somewhere if I remember correctly...it's about as old as I am, but it'll do the trick.

...and that totally doesn't sound weird. I'll probably do the same thing.

Expect mid 80s (minimum) for daytime, mid 50s night...it's hot....bring lots of water every day...thus my new storage cubbies for two 1 liter water bottles.

You guys better review the Moab checklists:
CB is a must.

pbkid (Jack), NocturnalVX (Gill and CeCe) and BigSwede (Steve) and I think a few other VXers are forming a small convoy out of Denver I believe.

Anything from the 40s at night to the 90s by day is possible...if you are camping bring a warm sleeping bag, seriously.

A few of us will be having breakfast at the Dennys at I-70 and Kipling (in Wheat Ridge? west side of Denver) on Sunday morning, heading for Moab from there. Not sure who all will be there, Gill & CeCe in a VX, I'll be in my Trooper are all I know for sure. I thought Jack was heading over Saturday?

Sounds cool. Hopefully I'll be ready by then. Should have pretty much everything packed friday night so shouldnt take too long. Never seem to get going as fast as I plan though LOL.

I'm just south of Quincey on Parker Rd (I prefer to call it North Centenial haha). I'll PM you my cell number. We can see how things are shaping up on saturday.

EDIT:

Just got an email that my new 10x12 tent was shipped wednesday and will be here next tuesday.
