Get Corey to Moab

I heard that my first offer on this was not considered serious, so I am back to a computer to restrart interest since time is drawing near.

I am looking for response from anyone who will help me with time or money to make this happen. Right now I am scratching the surface of getting Corey on a plane to Denver where he can ride the Cheesemobile to Moab and wheel/drive with me or anyone else, crash at the Sage and just worry about having a good time.

I will not collect any money until this is a sure go, but I want to see it happen. It is a wheeling mecca that will be filled with a huge portion of wheelers from this board who have been on the net for a good long time.

Let's get'er done.

I'll do what I can to get him out of this town!

Also, I kind of know where he lives (we're practicaly neighbors) so if need be I can make sure he gets on a plane

J/K Corey I wouldn't do that.............unless, of course the money is right

Fly, try Southwest Airlines. He'll even like the "food": Vegan peanuts! I flew to SLC recently for around $60 one way I think. Let's hope he doesn't get the Boeing call before this happens.

Edit: Looks like Southwest doesn't go to DEN.

Alaska Airlines has cheap flights out of SeaTac.

Maybe we could ship him UPS overnight?

Check out America west, I just found a flight for 194 round trip from Seattle to denver, but it depends on the dates. Check Orbitz.com they usually have some good fairs.

Adrian,
There are several of us heading down that way from here. If he really wants to go he can either drive his rig and caravan with us, or ride along. The drive kind of sucks from here, but it would be more fun with company, and I'm guessing gas wouldn't be much more expensive than a plane ticket.

I'd be happy to chip in. The better question is can he afford to take the time off? ...unless that's a stupid qustion, in which case nevermind and just count me in.

I'm in. Would $50 get him as far as Walla Walla?

I'll start getting his truck ready for "The Return!"

Fly him into SLC, and I will take him to Central/Southern Utah. My wife has a sister in Cedar City (1.5 hours out of St George) so she is always up to driving to So. Utah. We can exchange Corey on the side of the freeway.

Flying him down would be cool. Why not get him to drive? I'd like to see that clean white 2nd gen covered with Moab brown dirt.

What ever the case I can chip in a little.

Or perhaps there is a person on the board who works for or has airline connections. Or perhaps a free ticket or voucher lying around.

Too funny. You guys are gonna make Corey blush
I know his rig isn't really road worthy right now. So he can't drive it down.
I do know for a fact that the old coot is in dire need of a vacation.

Ben...
I know where Corey lives. PM me and we can meet at his place to package him up
