The first week in the last quarter of 2023 arrived. I’ve traveled to Moab, UT. Along the way, I visited with family, enjoyed the colors of fall, am continually amazed by the what #TheWest means to me, and of course my awkward affection for all things #LandRover.

Since I’m away from my computer this week, my hunt and peck phone finger typing will have to suffice. The Land Rover National Rally 2023 was pushed into October. The desert in the fall is pretty special. Warm days cool nights; even a few showers. Drivers from Canada, England, Scotland and Brazil made the pilgrimage along with with drivers from 18 different states. The opportunity to enjoy our differences is bonded by Land Rover ownership.

There is a lot of common ground here. Maybe that is what brings us back together each year. My/our first Rally was 1995. Two of my three children still drive Land Rovers. They grease the body of life; literally!

Next Tuesday, I’ll be back with all the facts and figures, so please visit again. For now, this is what Land Rovers do best. That is, burn old dinosaurs!
