    i REALLY want to go to moab this year. All you guys have been awesome and it would be great to meet those going and joint the holiday.

    Claire obvoiusly isnt into VX's as much as me but would be MORE than happy off roading through the kind of scenery i've drooled over from the previouse Moab trips. She also wants to see things like the grand canyon (not a million miles away i believe?? ) and have a proper holiday too.

    What else is 'near' Moab?? not that the treip wouldn't be enought but some negotiating points would be helpfull when getting claire to agree that our holiday this year should be with you guys!!

    Also, this really would depend on someone giving us shotgun for the trip ( and poss a drive ) as i dont think a hire car would be up to it!!!

    Oh my. Moab is right next to Arches National Park and Canyonlands National Park, two of the most beautiful natural rock formation areas in the world. They are like within 20 miles from each park. Don't know if she's into the nature stuff but it's spectacular. Also, the Grand Canyon is about 7 hrs from Moab (383 miles, 616 km), which is awesome. Google those parks and you'll see the iconic picture of the rock arch that is always used to symbolize that areas formations.

    Remember I'm always looking for a relief driver so you can have some seat time in my VX if ya want....you and Claire can take it alone and I'll ride with hubby...now there's a novel concept, eh?

    Remember that life is not measured in the breaths you take, but rather in the moments that take your breath away.

    Plan for 2011. Fly into Dulles Airport (Washington DC). I'll pick you up & we'll RV cross country. Bren wants to see Grand Canyon too (& maybe Mt Rushmore).

    Edit: Hey KAT - look who types too slow now

    KAT,

    You should not have any problems finding an open seat. Also near by is Zion, Bryce, Grand Staircasd, Painted Desert, and the Petrified Forest.
