Events/Trails Pig Party 2019

[PabloCruise]

Kurt has referred to a parking lot behind the museum a few times, but I think it does not connect directly to the museum.
We were talking about doing the BBQ feast back there.

What time to festivities at the museum begin? We'll be rolling in Tuesday afternoon.

I will plan to meet participants at the museum at 5PM on Tuesday. We can park behind the museum (see group parking) and walk around the front to the museum entrance. You can also curbside park on 600 South as well as 500 West (you can't access 500 West from 600 South as it's one-way). At some point we can all meet in the back and get some group shots of the Pigs! There is room for in group parking area for trailers/staging in the rear during our evening visit. The area is normal gated so it won't be open until I arrive at 5PM. If you arrive early, please plan to curbside park.

I need to network with @Gordobe on the food. David (museum executive director) and Dan (museum curator) may be joining us as well. Both will be at the museum earlier in the day should you wish to arrive earlier. We will be doing a group tour that evening as part of our plans so don't get too burned out on the museum before we kick off.

Well behaved dogs are welcome. We ask that you take great care with your pets around the museum collection, particularly the many tires that seem to attract leg lifters.

Meet & Greet - 5pm-6pm
Group Photo behind museum? 6pm?
Dinner: 6pm -7:30pm
Museum tour - ~7:30-9:00
Free time to check out collection and mingle - 9:00 - Late

I plan to be there at 5PM to open the gate for the group parking in rear and stay until ~10 or whenever everyone is bored of looking at Land Cruisers.

Thanks, Kurt. We all appreciate your help and advice for this gathering, especially you diving in deep when weather forced a change in plans.

Im thinking i should start thinking of packing today

 

[riderjgs]

I'm thinking today is a good day to cleanup a few nagging things on the engine/TBI swap after a few hundred miles of breaking things in. Packing, remounting the rooftop tent, etc. will have to wait until tomorrow. And this morning Bonnie informs we we can't leave town until after lunch on Tuesday. Probably have to catch up mid-tour.
Adrenalin is a great motivator!

Visited Dead Horse Point this morning, then spotted these 70 series in Moab over lunch. The driver of the white one has been on the road for 8 years!

Spending a couple days out of the Cruiser in Park City. See you Tuesday afternoon!

Sadly no, as soon as we finish up at the museum I'm headed to Moab to work on a Toyota USA project.

I may try and track you guys down Friday/Saturday
