***Complete spoiler for leg 9 of AR-8***
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have a complete itinerary for leg 9 of the AR-8 which will be aired on T.V. the upcoming week.
I've been wanting to post this for awhile, but I decided to wait till the week before this episode aired.
Here's how I got this information:
My mother-in-law works at a local diner in Moab, UT. In came Phil and the AR crew to eat lunch while they were shooting this leg. She's a big fan of the show, so she introduced herself to Phil. He wanted to keep things quiet, but he wrote her an autographed picture of himself. What's funny is he call's himself the "Philminator". Anyway, as the crew was leaving one of the crew members accidently left the entire itinerary on the table. I think you'll find that this will completely coincide with the show. So those who'd like to know what's coming up this week, please read ahead.
The pitstop of course starts at Lake Powell, and the race date is July 24, 2005.

The city Library! I work less than a block from there and drive by it everyday! I can't believe it. The roof is great I have gone up there to eat lunch before. They can either run up the stairs from the outside or go through the maze of elevators to get to the roof. I personally had to hard time trying to get down through the building. The stairs are easier. I can't believe Phil was that close!
