I think the 60's and 70's are catching up to my brain. I know I was there, just can't remember. Will that ginko help?

Gram Parsons... Janis, I can go on and on... my only disappointment is that I won't be driving my Westie in (probably a fly by for me).
...so this is looking more possible for me... the last word on date and location was:
In reply to: gathering June 24-27 in Colorado. Word has been progressing toward Turkey Rocks.
is the sentiment converging?

Hey handjammer48
I like your prayer - looks like the years spent on the cliff got you some wisdom. Some of the best times I spent in the mountains was with gray haired partners climbing circles around us youngens.
Lets get that meeting rolling and I'll be there some hears down the road...

I must give skibabeage the credit for my signature.
As for the gathering, the company I work for, Tally Systems Corp., has just been purchased by Novell. Since then, they moved me up to Engineering and the rollout for the product conversion with ZENworks is the 24th of June. I'm not sure how this will affect my traveling plans. I may have to put this one off ... bummer.

Hey skibabe;
Where is the Geezer gathering going to be held in Colorado? Is it just a big party or will we be caneing our way up rocks someplace? Are Geezers from Calif. invited? I'll bring some Yardbirds and Buffalo Springfield.

Judging from your musical taste you are automatically qualified cosmic.
Apple Valley eh? Used to live there myself about 15 years ago. Right off of Kiowa and Bear Valley. Back when Deadman's corner was untouched wall. Oh the good old days... 8^)

I need to be in Barstool (Barstow), California from 6 to 17 July. I'm contemplating something in the Sierra, Red Rocks (yes, I know it's hot), or Colorado then maybe driving on east to the gathering.
Three questions:
1) What would be my approximate drive time from Vegas to Denver (I'll adjust to the final destination from there).
2) Anyone else heading to Colorado from near Barstow or Vegas ?
3) If I decide to come to Colorado right after work (on the 17th or so), does anyone want to play somewhere in western Colorado or between Barstow and Denver during that week ?
Activities could included climbing, hiking, or mountain biking.
Keep in mind I'm woefully out of climbing shape and nursing a bad shoulder (that means mid-tens max for following, less for leading.
Thanks,
Tim

I told ya earlier I would be there. I think my plans are changing a little. Instead of flying, I'm driving and two of my pa. friends will be with me. They are both old enough. One 51 maybe and the other 11 years older than me and they tell me I'm older than dirt.

:cry: Charlie and Frank are going to be in an area close to me and I can't come. :-( Please tell me you 2 will stay a little longer and climb with me. :D I won't crash the party, although I'm tempted. Sounds like lots of cool people are going to be around.
A little warning about Frank. . .he thinks every route is "GREAT!!!!!" And I think that's GREAT!!!

In reply to: Those who don't meet the age requirement for the gathering are certainly welcome to join, but they will have to take on servile roles, i.e., changing bedpans, pushing wheelchairs, taking BP, wiping snotty noses and the like. Still interested?
- Running naked through the cholla cactus reserve at a J-Tree N.P.
- A prostate exam.
- Smacking grizzly cubs around in Glacier N.P. while mamma bear watches.
- Watching a 24-hour continous loop of Anna Nichole Smith's weight loss info-mercials.
So many options, so little time.
