I never remove all of it, for fear of angering the off-road gods of Moab...:yesgray:

Found all sorts of mis-placed snackage that I thought the squirrels mustv' eaten...:uhohgray:

Tomorrow, gonna try to give her an oil change, & mebbe even slather her flanks with the grape jelly + a coat of wax.

Only used 1.5 qts of oil during the whole 3K trip...:dance:

Picked up some Lucas syn 20w50 as my "add oil, oil"...Seemed to work OK.

Rarely had a cruising speed over 70, usually 65-68ish...:rolleyesg

Best mileage of the whole trip was 13.47...:(

Wash off / vacuum out 500 lbs and 2 years of Moab dirt and I bet you'll see another 2-3 MPG or my name ain't Rusty Shackleford. :biggringr

The Strap Dance: Eerily similar to Uhura's Fan Dance in Star Trek 5, but nowhere near as creepy.

It was fun az h3Ll to meet you Rick...we are absolutely of similar/simple mind...:yes:

OK...I'm sorry, I can only speak for myself on the "simple" part...:mbrasd:.:flower:

Any hoo, hope you had a good time in Moab, & hope to see you there in the future...:thumbup:

Dumke's got the mad dance skillz! Last year he amazed us with his pole/antanae dance skillz :)

Having done this a few times before, I didn't take too many pictures in Moab. Thought it might be nice for the noobies to get a few pics. I've got higher rez files if anyone cares.

That isnt Kennys Climb, its Jug Handle or something like that. Todd said the name of it once years ago but I'm not positive on it.

Kenny's Climb is much later on the trail

Same to you, Dude! I had a GREAT TIME meeting everyone and can't wait until next time! It was so much to take in all at once that I wasn't as social as I should have been - I suspect I'll be between 8% and 74.2% less weird/lurky/creepy next time. :laughgray

Or maybe not . :rotate:

So.... I heard rumors about a "Formal Dress Night" for next year. Is that still on or was it just the Monkee's talking?
