    JA> Yeah - probably too far to drive... Wife supports my interests, but   
    JA> doesn't share them all, and that's a long drive. :-)   
      
    SD> If I was going to drive again, I'd really just wait and go to   
    SD> Hamvention.   
      
   Well, for me, going that direction and distance would be hard to justify   
   when we could spend the same time and similar direction and visit our   
   son/DIL/grandson in Indy. :-)   
      
    SD>    Shelby is a six hour round trip in one day while Hamvention   
    SD> is a twelve hour drive round trip.  I'd rather spend the time and gas   
    SD> going to Hamvention but if my dad KD7SXQ is going I'll ride along with   
    SD> him.    
      
   Spending with your day - yeah, that trumps things. :-)   
      
    SD> Driving to Hamvention really wouldn't be too bad for me to do alone but   
    SD> I'd probably bring along my dad and a few ham friends locally to split   
    SD> the gas and drivers.  If I manage to get myself a working motorhome,   
    SD> that would be even better (or a vehicle and a little 16' Scamp trailer   
    SD> for myself).   
      
   My wife and I have been thinking about finding a 'good for the money'   
   Class C to do some travel with... We like the idea of one of us crawling in   
   the back to sleep while the other drives, being able to just pull in to 'camp'   
   or sleep, having the same vehicle to just 'take the home itself' to Wal-Mart   
   or whatever.   
      
   It's just the two of us, and a decent one will still have temporary sleeping   
   areas for a few more (maybe above the cab, for the grandkids), so it would   
   still be good for that too...   
      
      
      
      
      
   ... Sorcerer parking only. Violators will be toad.
