We are leaving next Friday afternoon for Gunnison, Colorado. We will be spending the week in and around the area.

OOOOOOO... Um, is that this coming Friday? Where are you coming from, and do you want company?

Dawson,

We are heading to Colorado this Friday, the 18th from northwest Indiana. As a matter of fact, we are staying in Aurora on Saturday, after driving straight through to Colorado.

I'll see what my wife's plans are. I know she is planning on visiting one of her former co-workers, who just moved out to the Denver area, before we head to Gunnison.

FUN! We've started 3rd Saturday get-togethers for the Metro Area and this Saturday's is in Boulder on Saturday evening at 4pm. If you're interested, it should be a good time! See this post: Jeep Meet (http://www.jeeppatriot.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5672). We haven't gotten much response as to who's attending, but there will be a few of us at least. If all else fails, we could meet up somewhere in Aurora after that meet... Let me know what you think!

Dawson,

Just wanted to publicly thank you for meeting up with us on our way down to Gunnison.

The trip to Gunnison was just fabulous. Anyone who wants an adventure of a lifetime, needs to take the trip to Creede and surrounding areas. Had we the time, we would have gone to Ouray.

Of course for the flatlanders that we are, there were more than a few "white knuckle" moments on the way down, but it was worth every moment.

Indiana never looks quite the same when we come back from Colorado.

Indiana is a great place to be from. (As my father always says)

We moved to Colorado in 1974, only going back to Indiana visiting relatives. I like Indiana, just like Colorado more!
