Status: offline 		I've wanted for a long time to hop in the car and just drive as a vacation. Not have much of a plan. Go where I desire. See and do what I please. When I was married this simply wasn't possible. The last couple of years I haven't had the time nor the money to do this either. This year the thought has occured more and more to me. I am in the perfect position to do so. It was suggested in another thread of a beer run/road trip throughtout the country. Stopping by to see various collarme members, having a nice dinner and a few drinks and a lot of laughs. It was also suggested that members could hitch a ride for parts of the journey. Would there be any interest? I would bring you good cheese from WI, made just down the road from me. I of course would be posting to the website of the adventures and any possible pictures taken. What say you?

Oh man, what a great idea this is. I was so envious a few years ago when those guys did that "Master Card" commercial, going to all the MLB Parks throughout the country. I'd love to do that same thing, with a NHL Hockey theme...but that's obviously not going to happen this year ~bastages~.

Anyway, I'm with Taggard. If you are in the Western New York area, look us up. We'll have a Genny Beer and a Porker (gross white hotdogs that I only eat out of either desparation or for 'local color')and kick back in Rochester.

If it's not during the school year then I can't help you, because I am homeless during that time

Status: offline 		Sounds like a great idea to me. My daughter and I drove from WA to FL and back. We only had a few motel reservations ahead of time, like New year's eve in Vegas and 3 days in New Orleans. We had a ball. We stayed at a lot of Casino hotels, visited a lot of relatives, and saw a lot of National Parks and other sites. I also met several online friends from my game site along the way. We took about three weeks each way.

Status: offline 		Ok, I checked with work today. What seems to work out best for me and them is the first week of August. I think I would be camping all throughtout a trip. It is cheaper and more fun with the fire going.

Did I mention my golf clubs will be in the car? Never know when an emergency golf session might break out.

I'm serious about this now. I had all day to think of it. I think I will be taking such a trip no matter what. So as of now, Indiana, Ohio possibly, and New York. All doable. I might have to stop in Gettysburg to see the battlefield again. Where else can I add to the itinerary(spelling on that please Chuck)?

Sagamore golf course is right down the road from us! Personally I don't golf, but Scooter and my brother says it's a great course.

Besides, how are you going to see everything in only a week? Lead foot?

Care for a driving buddy for the week?
Ive had one heck of a year Grey and a
week away with someone I DONT KNOW
just driving around slumming about
sounds rather soothing at the moment.
Course I am a Ol Dominant Kinkster who
makes most common folks unconfortable
to be around Me .....mmm the smell of
wet ground and trees higher then 8 feet
that is a temptation but I dont do golf.
Course Ya probabaly would prefer a couple
subjudicants instead to keep Ya company.
