Been there, done that.
Oh wait a minute, I live in Colorado, no big deal
but it is BETTER than a lot of other places.

Man, I wish we could come out for this! We're going to be there in 5 weeks on a family vacation! Hope the snow at higher elevations isn't too extreme! Of course that could make it more of an adventure!

I knew you all were waiting for the weeeeheeee thing again this year.

Not sure if it's the CB or the antenna Le`Roy. Besides, I can hear fine. Just can't talk. Which I'm sure isn't a bad thing sometimes Hope to wheel with you this year. when are you going to be there?

Ralph

I'd be up for some wandering around too but what I'm really looking forward to is some night runs.
