Ok I relooked up how long it would take from here to deals gap and it say's about 4 hours or right at , I would be comming up I-85 and By looks of what I see, I don't think It's purdent to enter in tenn to go back to North Carolina Grin

, I think we gonna go straight down I-85 and look for signs there, Any suggestions.

Where and when clarifications for MMRanch

Friday night June 26th we are all staying in Granite Falls at Toymaker's house. He has a couch in his living room that he hasn't peddled yet, Ed slept on it so it works OK for a guy to sleep on. Speak up if you want it as somebody else will take it quick if you don't speak up.

Saturday night June 27th we will all be staying in Apartment #1 at Deal's Gap Hotel -- cost will be split between 6 of us (if you buy in) and will run right around $20 give or take a buck or two due to price changes between now and then

(who knows, with the recession they might go down some -- har har!)

Toymaker, he's talking about your living room couch on Friday night, June 26th. That fills you up except for the rug on the floor and the front yard, right?

===================

Saturday night June 27th we will be staying in Apartment #1 at Deal's Gap Hotel -- cost will be split between 6 of us and will run right around $20 each.

We just have floor space available in the apartment now, and considering they are charging $13 dollars a head for cold wet outside grass space maybe we might just get us some some nice warm air mattress & sleeping bag on the floor takers at that same $13 price before it is all over ....

and we got us whole multiple rooms worth of floor space, too.
