The car.

The cockpit.

Hopefully I won't lose any oxen to dysentery.

I'll be updating this thread with pictures when I have internets.

Dinner at their place or going out? Group meeting perhaps?

Drive safe!

You'll pass Kalvin going the other way today. Since you're driving through Kansas, there's a good chance you'll see him in his lowered red & black 850 wagon.

Drive safe!

Good question. Grabbing dinner some place would be rad.

Let us know, I'd be up for a little road trip...

oldschoolvolvo · May 14, 2013

Sounds like a blast!

If I may make a small suggestion for you...it looks like you are taking Rt 191 to and from Moab, UT. On your way to CO, take Rt 128 out to Rt 70 instead. It is a beautiful winding drive through some canyons. Well worth the detour...although for you it really isn't a detour b/c you're heading east anyway.
