The Sloanie / Knight crew is headed to Arches this weekend, where there will be much rejoicing. Just wanted to get everyone on the same page here...Departure
At least 2 cars will be leaving the valley at 4pm and will be stopping in Provo for dinner. Both cars need to be ready to leave by 4.
Roll Call
I spoke with Jeffe today and it doesn't look like Mini will be joining us. =( I asked if it was finals or something, to which Jeffe responded "yeah, she gave me some crap about finals. i think her priorities are messed, but oh well." Hehe... no love from Mini!
Otherwise, everyone else seems to be on board:
Melissa
Mel
Marianne
Jesse
Mikie
Jeffe
Dan
Steve
Kate
Shawn
Melissa's friend Becky
Cars
- Mar & Jesse's Subaru - room for 2 passengers in addition to Mar & Jesse
- Mike's Altima - room for 3 passengers besides myself. I plan on taking Jeffe with me for sure.
- As for who goes in what cars and who else is driving, we need to sort that out. As Mini isn't coming, we have room for four cars, tho we probably ought to still just bring three for the sake of gas, etc. Who's driving the third?
For 2 camp sites we'll need more wood than Jesse and Mar can bring down in their car. Are we really gonna do 2 campfires? Maybe some of the time? We need to coordinate bringing down some more wood, then, between my car and whoever else ends up driving.
Food
So far the plan is thus (please let us know if you have any suggestions / changes):
- Saturday Morning: fend for yourself
- Saturday Lunch: Kate wants to make camp pizza or something. Kate, let us know what you need others to contribute either food or money-wise.
- Saturday Dinner: So far the idea is just to go into Moab and pick up some things to grill, everyone can do their own thing if they want-- be it hot dogs or steak or whatever.
- Sunday Breakfast: Mar and Jesse said they'd do breakfast. Again, anything you need others to contribute money / food-wise?
It would probably be a good idea to bring down some utensils, too... esp. a steak knife if you want steak ;)
Tents
We have a couple of decent sized tents going down that can probably fit everyone. That said, consider that a fair number of us are clowns and don't go straight to sleep when we do retire to the tent for the night, hehe. BYOT if you want some privacy ;)
Miscellaneous
- Light sabers. Bring 'em if you got 'em. As Dan's been saying all week... EPIC proportions.
- Guitar - Jeff's flying in from Hawaii and won't have his guitar. That means Dan and / or Jesse needs to bring one if there's to be any Stacy's Mom or Say it Ain't So going on ;) Think you can bring your acoustic, Dan?

Sad about Mini!
Jesse will bring his backpackers guitar - does Jeff know any Jack Johnson? :)
Jesse and I will be doing pancakes (and maybe eggs or something) on Sunday morning, because Jesse got a griddle for his new stove that he's stoked about. We'll also do a cobbler of sorts in the dutch overn on Saturday night.
Oh, and Mel was assigned to s'mores stuff.
Just wondering if anyone has any special request for pizza toppings? If not, I'll just get the basics!
Yep, I'm in charge of S'mores! I'll get all the stuff for that. Becky IS driving, so we'll be taking her car. Our car will leave town about 1:30-2:00, but first we'll swing by Mar and Jesse's and pick up wood for the second campfire. I think two campfires will be useful for cooking, but more than likely we'll all end up around one fire most of the time, so - extra wood is a bonus.
No Mini?? SAD!!
Thanks for the great info Mike! I am looking forward to the weekend and the epic lightsaber duel!
