Not worried about my Eagle surviving the trip, worried about ME surviving! ;) MIGHT make it, would definitely LIKE to. I'd enjoy seeing Rambler Ranch & one of my nieces has a daughter living in Elizabeth. Never met her, would be a good chance to.

Looks like I'm gonna be reserving the Eagle hotel for Friday and Saturday. How structured are these usually? Is it a wing it affair? Or will there be a schedule of sorts? Just trying to get a feel for what's gonna go down

In the past, things have been pretty well scheduled, with the stops picked out along the trip and a timetable of how long we'd be spending at each stop.  Not sure how this one is going to be set up, I know amcman73 is trying to get some more details.  I may only be able to make it for the Saturday activities and no over night stay but definitely want to participate.

Do you need the whole thing or just the differential?
