Thank you Sharon G. for setting this up!

How many days is it again?








Reservation made!

5x3=14 days

Room Booked

5 Days! Alien is coming out of storage in a couple weeks for a makeover.

Makeover?!?!

Someone needs remedial math, I think.

Only 5 hours away

Hopefully the car will want to go to this one.

Quick continuing education coarse for you .... http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/joke

We've reserved the whole hotel! (22 rooms)

I booked my room month ago! Looking forward to it. Should have my daughter Kiana with me

Nope. That's pretty much the way he does it. As long as he gets close he feels accomplishment. Do not loan him your camera or your wife will find the cleavage pic's "he" took.

Tried to book online but it sez "call us". I sent an email telling them I'm assuming that it's our group that is taking over that weekend! Finally, an entire parking lot "For Porsches Only"!

Well according to Robert, I have a room now ..... somewhere in the stable

I can only do the 18th thru the 20th for now.

C-Ya!

Oh, Professor 914 will be with me.

Now to fix the car!

Make sure you speak with Robert. Others have been mistakenly turned away by staff that think the hotel is sold out.

Hmm... Only a 10 hour drive. More if I stop and pee.

I reserved a room months ago, but with rennsport changing the date to the weekend before, not sure I'll make it. I also had already bought my rennsport tickets...and they're non refundable. Car is done and would be fine, just not sure about me.

They called this morning and that's the reason why- now I'm booked!

Booked! I may have to quit my job to attend but hey!

Where is Escalante, Utah ? Near any major airports ?

I know a place where you an get another job Rick and it's much. Closer to all of these events...

We might make it...hopefully...


Any volunteers to do awards? Please contact myself or Sharon G.

Mid Southern Utah .... many miles from nowhere / many miles to nowhere.

Cedar City is probably the closest major airport.

Major??

Quick facts

Escalante is a "city" in Garfield County, Utah, United States located along Utah Scenic Byway 12 in the south central part of the state. As of the 2010 census, there were 797 people residing in the city. As of September 20th 2015 there will be approximately 842 people in Escalante and the majority of operating vehicles (not including wheelchairs) will be Porsche 914's.

Airports? Not a regional nearby but if your flying a Stearman, you can land just about anywhere / it is in the middle of nowhere and quite scenic with occasional long flat patches of ground....

Looks to be around 600 miles from the south coast of California so it is a great desert drive of around 8 hours with one fuel stop........

Escalante has an airport just out side of town. Well, OK, it's more of an airstrip. No fuel. To be honest, it's a long flat strip of paving that is suitable to land a small airplane on.

Don't you have to buzz the "landing strip" prior to final to chase the cows, chickens, goats, geese, sheep and prairie dogs off?

I'm sure you can get 85 w/ 15% ethanol downtown. Might be a long taxi from the "landing strip". The cops won't mind as they have probably never seen an airplane that was made of metal rather than wood/fabric. You, however, must wear a leather helmet, white silk scarf and goggles to make sure they don't classify you as a "alien". Oh, and bring your golden trumpet to ward off evil (and Professor 914). Garlic helps too!

Do they speak Amerikan or Utah-ese?

Is the nearest restaurant called "Alice's"?

How many hundred miles is it to the nearest liquor store?

Loa has a Deli in the market. Yuuuuummm, Southern Utah Fried Chicken to Go .... cooked in unsaturated Sheep grease (KY)!

Those shirts red rock!

Very cool layout

I can neither confirm or deny any of your "facts" sir, the only thing I'm really sure of is that Escalante is WAYY out there- even for Utah...
So far as the "unsaturated Sheep grease" goes, it's probably left over from the last female wrestling contest in Cedar City. Not that I'd know... I'm only guessing... maybe from Vernal....

All booked! Ahhhh, how I love that drive back into Phoenix at the end of September. Nothing like the last hour of an eight hour drive in 110 degree temps.

Sheep?

That's why you got this trailer for your Birthday....

Still have it! I even park the car on it :-)

I knew that would get YOUR attention!

Gonna be a fun RRC

Is that dust!?

We had some big haboobs!

I'm a definite maybe on this trip. It's just a question of what form of transportation I use. Two days up, five days there, two days back. That's a lot of just to watch SLITS get drunk and pass out. What the hell is a "haboob".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haboob

So, big haboobs really aren't as much fun as I might have thought.

Evidently not.

Wish I could make it. The wife and I stayed there almost ten years ago now. Beautiful area. Be sure to catch Calf Creek Falls!

I also recall entering from the northeast, traversing a section of road nicknamed 'The Dog's Back'. Apparently, people out there were one of the last to receive mail by Pony Express? lol I've hung out the open doors of helicopters, and this road gave me vertigo!!

Don't get caught in a haboob, looking at a hoodoo

Sheep don't mind Haboobs...

Oooooooo .... Dirty Ewe, Southwestern style.

Huh.....I always pegged you as a haboob man. Obviously not.
