    Considering that I got ~14 MPG towing the Jetta back from Colorado at 70 MPH on a full length trailer, I am estimating that we will get ~12 MPG towing your Tacoma to Barnwell and back. That is accounting for less weight and more wind resistance at an average 65 MPH. Calculate in the cost of fuel at a generous $3.00/gallon (mid-grade)...

    375 miles (each way)
    750 miles (round trip) / 12 MPG = 62.5 gallons
    62.5 gal * $3.00/gal = $187.5
    $187.5 / 2 peeps = $93.75 per person in fuel.

    I just took that same route this past weekend to go to Mississippi, and I got almost 20 MPG with a light load and no trailer. Average speed was 72 MPH.

    I'm cool with that, but that is definitely worst case scenario.

    Yeah, that is figuring high on the fuel price and low on the fuel economy. I still gotta talk to Steve about when I can pickup his trailer. I don't have a place to store it. So, I would like to go get it Thursday night.

    That stinks that you won't be there, but I completely understand. I hope that she is doing well!

    I hate to say this, but I will not make this one either. It was kind of Iffy anyways. I think I will try BVORR again in December though, probably the weekend of the 18th.

    I would like to try Barnwell, but there is too much going right now at home. Maybe Postpone?

    Seeing as how it's just Randy, Mark, and Me left in this meet, I think I'm gonna bail and just go to Hidden Falls instead. Sorry Randy, I know you were there just last weekend.

    Sean, how well do CBs work out there? Too Hilly?

    I may go to Hidden Falls as well. I really want to test out my camping gear, but I also have other commitments that I must attend too...

    ...we'll see.

    Hey Drew, be sure to give one of those locking duma-hickies I sent with you to Sean. I have been needing to get him one.

    I don't know all the details of Hidden Falls. I think they lock the gate at night.
