    I'm excited now. Looking forward to seeing some old friends AND getting to know some new ones.

    It's snowing like a son-of-a-gun up here now so hopefully this will pass by Saturday morning and I can make it over to you guys.

    SO, who do I need to pick up on my way into Denver?

    CONVOY!!!!!

    Mark, Give me an idea of when you'll be around I70 and Wadsworth and I will join you there.

    im really hoping that you guys can make it down from the mountains. Its supposed to snow a ton up there.

    mark- whit said you better find your way down because she wants to see you.

    Dan, Google Earth is telling me that it will take about 3 hours 20 minutes to get there from here. I'd like to get there a little early because I'm sure there will be some VX geeking out before lunch (after too). If I leave here around 9ish when will that put me in the Wadsworth area? I have your number now so I can call when I get to Idaho Springs. Will that give you enough time? Anybody else want to join the VX train?

    Jack, it has been snowing a ton up here, but it's in the upper 30's so the roads are wet, but not bad at all. I haven't checked the weather yet to see what's going to happen in the next couple of days, but my biggest concern would be Vail Pass or the tunnels. I'll keep an eye on it.

    Also, Jack, you don't have to use Whit as an excuse. If it's you that wants to see me then just say so. I'm looking forward to catching up with you. See? That wasn't so tough.

    ok, ok, ok. You caught me

    well, in all reality, you were the FIRST VX'er i ever met... at the co-zu meet in buena vista in 06, you had just bought your VX and were on your way home.

    Cant wait to see the fam. should i make our reservation for 15? is that a safe number?

    who else are we missing off the new list? i know Rallydude is one of them. Who else am i missing?

    Idaho Springs

    That will give me plenty of time if you call from Idaho Springs. I was looking at the Map, there is no reason for you to come all the way to Wadsworth, unless you have a reason. I70 and C470 would be better and we could take C470 to Park meadows rather then I25. Up to you let me know what you'd rather do.

    Dan, I don't know Denver all that well so I'm just going where Google Earth is telling me to go, and I think it has me going past Wadsworth. If you know a better way let me know and I'll follow you.

    Great turnout and a great time. Others have much better photos, but here's a start.

    9 VX's in one place...amazing (and some guy with a 4-Runner)
