I know I asked this already, but since I did not get any answers, I am assuming that I am. Is anyone else heading down on Friday? Everyone else that I had asked to go with me this weekend ended up having to work, so I will be coming stag. Just want to know if I need to bring some cards with me to keep me busy

i PMed you about meeting up with Ray at the campground. he has the short blue Montero with a roof rack and tire on top. the guys there should provide enough interesting conversation to keep you amused.

take some time to fully secure stuff in your x so it doens't bounce around. other than.. be ready for a lot of fun on saturday! see you all there.

Jason and I are making our plans for tomorrow morning on PMs as we speak.

Aside from the waking up at 4:05 part, I can't wait

I figure once I wake up, I'll need 40 minutes to actual regain consciousness, shower, dress, eat breakfast, make sure I have everything, etc. So I'll leave here at 4:45. Then it takes 36 minutes to get to your house (according to Mapquest, with wrong directions), which I rounded up to 40, so hypothetically I'll arrive at your place at 5:25.

I'll most likely be early, but don't worry about me

I'd go ask my dad, but by the time I asked, and if he did say yes I'd have to drive out to your place, and at this point it'd be so late when I got there that I probably will actually get more sleep by staying here. But thanks for the offer.

It was raining earlier when I was out with friends, I don't know how that will effect tomorrow. I tried checking the weather up there, but none of the weather websites have Tellico.

You know what I just realized? When I'm making the drive to Jason's house, all the Buckhead bars and clubs will have just closed, so cops will be out in force. Damn. Speed limit all the way.

And on that note: sleep. I'm gonna need it. Good night everybody, see ya tomorrow morning!

Alright, well, I'm back and I survived.

It was an excellent trip, but I am going to sleep now, and I will sleep well tonight, I guarantee it.

When someone does a trip report and starts posting pics, but a link in here!
