Yea, thanks for keeping me in mind, but I'll be here in school/flight training for at least another year. Won't be able to make this one, fellas.
May be able to meet in Moab, though... Just hold this TECORE there... hmmmm

My wife is scheduled for a hip surgery on the 10th so I am out this time. Maybe a spring run?

Oct 14-16 is the one weekend that is bad for me.

The other weekends are open for me - I would prefer 28-30, though.
