Yeah it is. I just paid 2.27 in Tucson today. That was great. We need to get this put together. I also had a long talk with Precision Scion today regarding how a car show there.

They seemed really into it. Plus that way we can coem down to see Wade.

Dang!!!Chad
Anytime one of you is in Tucson let me know, I was right around the corner from Precision we could have had lunch or coffee or something !!!!

Randy -- Where did you go to school? Isn't the Salt area "Utah". We talked
about my trips to the Bonneville Salt Flats for speed week last night. We need
to include these folk's all so, if their game. Come on boy -- pull out that atlas -
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: You are just too much my man :rofl: :rofl:

I am soooo down for a trip to NM or UT! I am more than willing to pack 3 more of you in my car if you don't want to put the miles on your rides. Let's do this! Great idea, Randy!

lets try to avoid utah. my grandfather lives there.... :lalala:

Maybe you can have a Scion meet at his house... :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I'm sure he would like that, even though he probably wouldn't know who you are :doh: :lalala: :lalala: :lalala: :lalala: (inside joke)

That sounds like fun, I'm down for this.

Can we aim for this like some time in the near future like maybe december or some thing so that way us poor people can save some money to make the trip and get the time off. I'm planning on coming back to NM for a week at the end of December but doesn't have to be then

Lets do it in Jan. I think we have enough things going on next month with xmas, families, SCO nights and well ya know. January would still be a cool time to go out there.

Will snow be a factor anywhere in our drive? I hit snow once in Novemver coming home from SD. It was weird.

Mid Jan or later, we have CES in Vegas for those in the Consumer electronics industry.

January + southern UT = nice weather. You could meet up in St. George and take a cruise out to Zion National Park.

That would be sweet. I have a customer there

Or how about the 4 corners -- maybe even pull in some colorado cars

I think Jan would be good for the meet. I dont think there should be really any snow. NM is not known for a lot of snow, more up north it is but not here in Alb. I will find out tomorow at my meet if this will be good.

Good News! I talked to my club today at our meet and we wanna do the meet. I'm excited! We discussed when it should be and where. We are thinking the begining of January (6 or 7). I think meeting around New Years is not a good idea. The meet should take place in Silver City, NM (weather permitting). Silver City is halfway for all of us as someone stated. As far as activities I have never been to Silver City so I have no idea what we can do there besides meet up. We should also set up a roll call for this meet and see who is going. My club may also stay the night there instead of driving back the same day. Let me know what you all think. I hope we can do this meet. Laters

I live an hour away from Silver, so what I can do is go up and take some photos. There is an old walmart thats been empty for a few years and has a pretty big parking lot we can use to meet up in. The Gila Cliff Dwellings are nearby and have a nice mile and a half or so walk provided its not to cold.

Lemme know what you all want to do.

ahem*** scionetics mods.. please add this to the cal.

I used to live in Silver City and this is a compressed lkist of things to do in the area:
There is alot to do in Silver City (well actually just outside Silver) we could do a run to the Cliff dwellings it's about a 2 hr drive thru some of the prettiest mountian ranges in NM ,then if you are into hiking there is a hot springs about a mile hike down the Gila river behind the cliff dwellings it's situated between 2 cliffs and is very private (suits optional),my wife and I used to go there alot when we lived in Silver.

Or we could make a run to the Catwalk it's a way cool old mining catwalk along the side of a Mtn and takes you back to a natural pool and awesome scenery...

Or we could do the run up thru Pinos Altos to Lake Roberts then back thru Mimbres Valley also a beautiful run about 2 hrs also................

Or you can take the 2 laner over the Black Range and into Truth or Consequences (also known as Hot Springs ) where they have natural hot springs that you can pay to soak in.
Or we could head out east from Silver thru Baird and Hurley and go to the City of Rocks ,and have a picnic it,s got a big enough parking lot and the little ones could climb rocks (If anyone is bringing their "Chidren") also on the way to City of Rocks is Fayette Hot Springs which is privately owned and has several man made tubs ,private and group size. they usually charge about 20 bucks for an hour in the private ones and 8 bucks for the group size

As for hotels there are quite a few I reccomend the Holiday Inn Express (they are a national acct for my company so maybe I could get us a deal on a block of rooms)

And for you Party people there are a bunch of bars, the Buffalo , or the Flame would probably host an event ,they always did our Harley events for us..............
