    Probably will have the ladies do a Goofle (not sic) search as we head out about 30-45 minutes from now!!!! We will text you when we locate one.

    MEANWHILE, START YOUR ENGINES!!! (At least Brian and me anyway). Both of us packed to the gills.

    I already have trail damage. My trailer hitch is shorter than I thought and the tire/storage box on my swing gate crunched the storage box on my trailer on both sides twice already. No more sharp turns with the trailer.

    Major storms coming across Arkansas right now (in Huntsville about 0300 or so). Hopefully rain will be gone by the time we get there.

    I'm almost fully packed here. Just have to pack a bag of cloths and bathroom stuff, and I'm ready to go.



    You guys drive careful, we'll see you in Moab!

    Exactly. I wonder how bad the flooding is. I wonder if there is an Arkansas thread.

    Yeah, those spots book up 9 months in advance. I've camped on the White Rim a few times. I'm in Utah and spend a lot of time around Moab and I highly recommend planning an all day trip around the White Rim. If you leave at sun rise you can do the whole thing (about 100 miles) and have time to stop in a few places along the way. There are amazing views the whole way. The trail is pretty easy and only has about 3-4 rough spots. See you guys on the trail.

    Following you guys as if I was there!! What an awesome adventure!!!

    Will you continue to post here or start another thread? Will your pics/vids be posted on this thread or another?

    What I am asking is -- how can I follow and see your post-trip breakdown? This is amazing and I am using my Moab book to mark/follow the trails you guys are doing for my trip in August! Your planning & communication is amazing!!

    Thanks for sharing it all with us!! Happy and safe travels!!!!! :cheers:
