Can I join? nowyo, Tommy, could I trade gas or food for a ride? Russ and his bride are the finest of folks. Michelle, you will fit right in. I am sure they wont take gass money, but some meat for the grill likely wont be declined... (I could be wrong... ) I wish i could make it. May still. What days are memorial weekend? Perhaps, since a date is now set, a new thread is in order? Getting serious about it...... Thanks!

Some will be camping, Roy and I will be staying at the Diamond A Motel (http://www.diamondamotel.com) Call them for reservations if you want to stay, they are good people. Less camping gear means more room for rocks.

Despite what @shotgunner says, while my wife may be a fine person I'm generally half a step above total dirtbag. I sometimes semi-successfully pretend to be sort of okay. The others are all great folks, though. Russ

652 miles, 10hrs with today's traffic. About 870 from here. I could cut about 200 or so off by going through the park but-dealing with holiday traffic is bad enough anyway without dealing with Yellowstone holiday traffic. Russ

damn, this thread took on a life of its own since I last looked in on it. Scott and Russ that would be badass if you guys could make it. I will happily relinquish my "longest traveled" award haha. It's a solid 7 hours for us. The other thing that we have done a couple of times is stay in Winnemucca. It's a 1-hour drive (or less if you drive like me) from Winnemucca to McDermitt on a nice smooth straight road with easy passing when needed. micellular I don't want to lead you astray on being able to give you a ride-along. Nobody took her up on the initial coverage request for Friday and Monday so now it's a wait and see thing. With a long holiday weekend like this the longer it goes without a taker the harder it gets

I can't stay out west til the end of May.... I gotta go 2500 miles home to NC and get the lovely Susan and her travel trailer all gone over and hooked up and headed back out here. I thought this was a end of April trip. Oh well maybe Tony will take us to Glass Buttes at least when we visit him n Chris!

Having vehicular issues, the work beater won't get me to McDermott. I hope to resolve it this week, but considering all options. If anyone is traveling by way of Portland and don't mind an overly talkative rider... Should know by Monday.

I did a dry run out there, it is good to go, we can get into any of the places we want to go. I have an extra room reserved if anyone needs it.
