Getting to Moab

Getting to Moab was an adventure in itself. The original plan had Fraser leaving on the 28th of September to come early and scope out the course. Unfortunately the truck was in the shop and took a bit longer than expected and then Fraser got the Flu! He was out sick for several days so I cancelled my flight and drove with him last weekend.

Our drive included:
- Running out of gas (never leave Seattle and go thru the mountain pass on 1/2 a tank of gas)
- Pouring rain
- Crazy snowstorms
- Hail the size of marbels
- More rain
and finally, blissfully, DUST :)

It was a crazy trip and we were glad to arrive in sunny, dusty Moab!
