Just got home and what a trip home it was... Late leaving, Ryan blowing tires, Kevin breaking clutch linkages, dead bodies in vegas, titanic remains, driving home late... ....and the strippers...
Kevin and Ryan are still on the road on 166 somewhere...

Lol there was an exhibit at the Tropicana called "Bodies" that featured real dead bodies that were stripped of skin so you could see the innards. It was pretty awesome...

Oh ok, they had that exhibit in San Francisco a while back and i think it was pulled because of too much controversy.

I'm home now. Sheeeew that was long. That was a very fun trip! Barbastard should be getting home soon if not already. Thanks guys and I hope that it doesn't take many years to go back. Maybe a couple though. That was a long a** drive. A little over 900 for us :blink:

The Bodies exhibit is neat. I like the one with all the arteries remaining.
Mel wants to see the Titanic one. Ohh, I'm still married, even though it hailed near Cedar City. :( I fly though that to stay dry and to keep the windshield clear. :unsure: I taped up the windows with some Gorrilla tape, it is the best tape ever. Many of the roof screws had snapped off by the time we left Moab, I didn't find this until Ogden. Damn that's a noisy problem.

Im back too....... never heard from Kevin/Ryan and they knew we were on the same hwy. I will assume they didn't need our help. Hope all is okay.
The trip was long. Way long ! But it was awesome !!! Wheeling in Moab with the rain was a whole new experience. AWESOME !
Back to work now....

I’m back too….got in at about 11:30 last night...but didn't get into work till 2PM today (too tired). VERY long trip…..by my odometer it was 1911 miles round trip….with 1018.4 of them coming on the return trip home. All in all a very AWESOME trip but VERY VERY VERY long and VERY VERY VERY wet. But….wouldn’t trade it for the world :2thumbs: . I’ll post some pics tonight.
Got more carnage in my driveway this morning when I pulled the rig of the trailer…..the spare tire I was running on the front drivers side decided to lose a bead. That was fun…….
