Can't do 17th or 18th this month. For future reference though :
_ Hotel ?? How much ? I'll sleep on the floor if need be, & I don't snore ( much )
_ Car pool ?? I can meet off 287 on someone's way up. Otherwise 3.5 hr for me.
Certainly I'm in for gas & tolls. I wouldn't bring too much stuff, and I've dropped 20 lbs the past year.

_ Do most guys do one or both days ? I'm flexible. My wife has some health issues, but she may grant me leave
to do both if there are future 2 day trips..
Thanks for any input, & have a productive & safe October trip.
I suck as a blackfisherman, but I'm proof you can teach an old dog new tricks.
Tight Lines,
