skybytch 273 #1 August 14, 2003 We made it! The car is resting happily after 4702 miles of interstate driving round trip; 2023 of those since Monday morning. I'm happy to be sitting in my chair in front of my computer with the cooler blowing directly onto me and my dogs lying at my feet. Gonna take a while to process the last three weeks... The drive between Denver, CO and Richfield, Utah on the 70 is one that everybody should do at least once. Stunning, jaw dropping, awesome, incredible... pick an adjective, it describes the scenery along the way. WFFC '03 did not suck. At least the parts I can remember didn't. It's good to be home.

Good to see ya having fun!

We decided we must have driven most of I-70 from St Louis to Denver just about next to you on the freeway, based on arrival times and such.

Am I the one that needs the shower?May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.

And then I fell asleep. That was one cool motel room; I had my own kitchen. I think you got to Denver before me, but not by much. Pretty good considering I didn't leave Rantoul until 8 am Monday morning. And yes, Keely, I did take the station wagon all the way there and back again.
