The 28th should work well for me, as far as I know at the moment. I'm trying to find a job and so things could suddenly change, but I will do my best to keep that time open. Of course, traveling together in a car has its benefits. However, I can also make it to Denver by bus and then we could meet at Union Station or something like that.
