Well,

Some good news and some potentially not so good news:

Yesterday, we finally got word from our agent that we are getting a new house we've been after for a while. The way things look right now, we'd likely get the key on April 17th or 18th.

The good news is that this house is a great home and it's in a superb location.

The potentially bad news is that we may end up having to move the weekend of April 19th. If that happens, it will affect Black Sheep week for me. We are still finalizing the details so I'll know more later.

Great news on the house. You don't have to move in the first weekend after you buy you know. I bought another house in January and we still haven't moved in yet. :)

Put me down for this trip! However, we can't be there until Thursday night, the 24th and we are leaving the afternoon of the 26th. 2 solid days will be good for me and the fiancé as she's already panicking lol. Woohoo!! First time going to Moab! I'm so stoked! We booked at the Sleep Inn. I'm looking forward to meeting the group

Is there any idea of what trails we will hit on which days? I would like to figure out what trails I can or would want to take the raptor on

Just picked up a 30 foot travel trailer. Hope it does not effect me making it out there. Got a phone interview Thursday for a position by Boulder Colorado, so I should be saving up incase I move.

Hoping to find a job closer to Moab, but Colorado will work too.

The way things look right now, I probably won't be able to leave for Moab in the morning of Friday the 18th. I will more likely be able to leave later in the day Friday, or at some ungodly hour Saturday morning. We are still working through the final details of when we'd get the key so things may change.

Meanwhile, our current landlord has apparently signed a deal with the buyer of our current condo and agreed to escrow closing before we can be out. I find that interesting because we haven't given our formal notice yet.

CA law says if you're month-to-month, paid up, and have lived in the rental for over a year, they're required to give you 60 days notice. If less than a year, 30 days. You only have to give 30 days notice. Not much they can do about it. Additionally, if you feel like being a real bastard about it, you can tell them to pound sand and their only recourse is to start the eviction process which takes a lot of time.

...except in cases where the property is being sold and is in escrow, which is whats happening right now. In such cases the law allows a 30 day notice.

We are working with legal counsel to determine whether our LL has followed California code of civil procedure correctly in how they delivered the notice and whether their failure to do so makes the notice legally invalid

Boulder is fairly expensive. Get a good feel for cost of living there before agreeing to a salary.
We have noticed that. Got a few job offers out that way. I turned down one job do to the increased cost of living and only matching my current wage. This job comes with a good raise so I hope I works out.

Now that a Delta regional flight services Moab from SLC, and a return trip would run me $300-400 I thought about flying out for a few days to join you guys, but I'll be slammed at work until the film I'm working on delievers. I'll probably be out there in the Summer once I get my new engine and body lift installed, but I'll make plans to show up for the Fall run for sure, no project delievery deadlines to get in the way there. :)

Kurt you should make one of our trips. You would have a blast. I know you made one of the THCI trips but I think you would enjoy this more.

I haven't been on a THCI run but from what I can tell anyone who hasn't hung out with the Blacksheep is that by the end of the week they will think they are the coolest group to hang with.

Kurt you need to make BSHS week. Local runs we've done, a lot of great people. But, BSHS, priceless. It is awesome. You need to make it at least one. After that, it will keep you going back. And the outpost, my boy Neo and Nav, amazing peps.

The plan has finally come together a bit. We will be moving in the morning of the 18th. We'll have everything packed up and ready to go by Thursday night and the movers arrive Friday morning. It shouldn't take them too long to get everything loaded in the truck drive 1.5 miles and then offload again.

Depending on when they are done offloading, I'll head out for Moab immediately after the movers leave, or at some ungodly hour Saturday morning.

I'm a very lucky guy. Heather is all excited about having the new house to herself all weekend to unpack, organize and get things into place. Plus, she WANTS me to go to Moab. She says I need it......???

But what about Daisey? Is she going to be happy? And congrats Mikkel and Heather

Daisy will have both a front AND a back yard. I'm pretty sure she'll be quite happy about that. Plus there's a park across the street.
