Surely you realize that this means that I will have to start the "Chad Thomas Thread for Everybody!" thread, right?

Chad, I just gave you a 4star rating on this post. I had to deduct one star on techinal merit that you did in fact forget to check the no replies.

Shoot Chad, I've been wanting to get you out here for some time...it seems that you've forgotten about my fair state in your "Western Where Is It?" threads. Sooo...if it means I have to get my little smiley boxer man kicked, then so be it! Off to start the new thread!

BTW, this marks the third spoof of the "Everybody" threads. Do think that anyone will get the hint yet?

You're right, I haven't got a whole lot of Colorado time in. I have been to Denver once and up I 70 a couple times but that was a long time ago before I had a camera. Oh and I did do the Durango & Silverton once.

 That may change soon as my dad and I are planning a trek out that way sometime around the end of sept.. The tentative plan is to follow the Overland either to Nebraska or turn North twards the PRB. Then after that play it by ear, posably droping down to I 40 to come back west.  But we have no set plan. If I end up in your zone I'll look ya up. I plan on meeting up with a couple people on this trip. I'll shoot you an e-mail when the time gets closer
