For some reason when i posted I was back earlier, WR messed up and the post is empty...

Anyway, I left Friday night to go party in Boulder up at CU, then Saturday we left for Fulford cave/campgrounds about 150 miles away from Boulder. We camped out Saturday night, then Sunday night we went caving, which was, once again, awesome. When we went to leave Sunday afternoon, my friend's Jeep was dead. So we left it there, and drove back in my car. The next day, another friend and I rented a Uhaul and a trailer to tow the Jeep back on. Long story short, I was planning on coming home Monday night, I just got home Wednesday afternoon.

About everything that coulda gone wrong with the Uhaul and trailer did, and a trip which should have taken us 6-8 hours took over 12. The trailer came unhitched twice, we couldn't go faster than 35 over Vail pass, even though the pedal was to the floor the entire time, then the next day, the battery's connections were loose, which we didn't know, and the truck broke down twice. By the time roadside assistance helped us, it was too late to return the truck, so we had to do that today.

Fucking Uhaul put a HUGE damper on what was one of the coolest weekends of my entire life.

Pics of Fulford cave and the trip in general to come this weekend sometime. I posted a few pics of the mountains in BOTH in the "I love Colorado" thread.

Cheers.

I saw the empty post and replied anyway but it didn't show up either! Saw your pics on the other thread...very niiiiiiiiice. Sorry Uhaul fucked you over.

Glad to have you back, Sub! And I was wondering where you had gotten to! You aren't allowed to leave like that without announcing it! I've been in withdrawal, having no journals to comment on, as Andy seems to have disappeared as well. So hop to it, buddy! Start journaling! :wiggle:

And a *hug* for making it back safe and sound!

That empty post was probably the longest one i have ever made. I was pissed it didn't work. It explained EVERYTHING that happened/went wrong over the weekend.
