sign me up for it. I will tell the boss to take a hike if he denies me my vacation time. (now, let's hope a valve seat doesn't drop on the way there)

should be a fun time. you western folks seem nice.

I'm more worried about the rustbelt Hoosiers with their brass knuckles and tough, street savvy ways....

Sorry to dice up your numbered list...I too was wondering how long I would have to take off, let me know repairman, I'll try and swing it.

Lessie .. the Maupin gathering is three days. A guy I know drove to Oregon from Detroit last summer in a '66 Squareback and took four days to do it (arrived on the fifth day) .. not hauling ass but not poking along either. And he cut off I-80 in Winnemucca and took secondary highways the rest of the way to Roseburg (via Klamath Falls). You'd probably be on I-80 to Salt Lake City and taking I-84 from there .. but I'm guessing.

Based on that, I'd say to figure on two weeks, two and a half weeks if you want "breathing room" time.
