    Smile It's not too early - Moab ZuZu 2011

    A wise man suggested I bring this topic back to the surface.

    O.K. Here it goes.


    Here's a thought and a question. We have always been dicated to when we had each Moab ZuZu. When Isuzu ran it, they told us when it was. It was always the next week after Mother's Day. That ment the VX Run was on the first Tuesday after Mother's Day.

    I don't know about you, but in order for me to make it to the VX Run, that ment I had to leave a day before Mother's Day. I've been doing that for the last 6 years. Needless to say, I haven't celebrated Mother's Day with my Mom or my wife for six years.

    Since we are no longer dictated by Izusu, why not move it back a week after Mother's Day? This will solve two major problems. First, it will get my wife off my back. Second, I will no longer be on my Mom's hit list. Seriously, I can't be the only person who has this problem.

    Mother's Day will be on May 8th in 2011. Normally, ZuZu would be on the week following Mother's Day. That would be on May 10 - 14th. I'm proposing we do ZuZu on May 17 - 21st in 2011.

    Anyone else want to change the date to the following week? That means the VX Run would be on May 17th 2011. What do ya say? Can we do this?


    Peace.
    Tom

    Just so you know Tom, "Isuzu" has never had anything to do with ZuZoo. It was just a group of Zu enthusiests from the 4xWire that got together and organized it.

    Again unless you are proposing this being a VX thing, there are people on at least two other forums that would need to chime in. I know a few of them have to schedule their vacation way in advance so you would want to work this out quickly.

    Hmmm, here's a better idea for 'ya-- since the VX is capable of holding four(4) persons, you could drive the VX (passenger #1) and transport your wife (passenger #2), your own mother (passenger #3), and your mother-in-law (passenger #4) all to MOAB 2011 in the VX on the regular scheduled dates. Take them all up "Hells Revenge" for a picnic at the summit.

    In this way; the pre-scheduled dates for MOAB 2011 won't be changed to conflict with other competing groups, and you can have a 3-way Mother's Day celebration all at the same time. Brilliant!!!

    LOL now if only that would work in the real world, hahahaha. My wife actualy said I could drive out there for this by myself and she'd stay home with the kids haha. Probably wouldn't be too happy to know I'd be gone for Mother's Day though lol.

    'ZuZoo has always been the 3rd weekend in May (and week leading up to it)...so this wouldn't change anything.

    Mother's Day is early this year!
    So your Dates work for you and for the old Zuzoo crowd.
    Problem solved!
    Awesome, the universe likes you Tom.

    OK... Cece & I missed out this year because of her school schedule.
    I would suggest making the get-together from May 21st to the 28th next year to make sure people that still go to school (or teach) will be done and have time to make it out to Moab. I know that some of the ISUZU crowd still shows up in Moab, but usually around the time we are heading out. Pushing the dates back a bit might work best for a lot of folks! We missed everyone, and don't want to make it a habit!
    The only thing we have to fear is fear itself... and zombies.

    ... BUT ...

    Wifey works at a finance company & end of month sux for them. Unless it's sometime during the 2-3 week, I'll have trouble with my 'once in a lifetime' trip.

    I don't wanna drive the schedule though, I'll work something out.

    I could probably do that with enough notice, but I know it would be tough for a lot of folks to miss out on family Memorial Day weekend stuff (Memorial Day is the 30th in 2011).
