Re: What's stopping you?
What's stopping us?
About $750 worth of gas and 11 nights minimum in a motel OR about $1250 for gas and 11 nights minimum in a campground.
Having to drive I80 again OR take a longer, slower route that will take more time and money.
Having to convince the DW that this would be more fun than some of the destinations she might have in mind.
I'm sure it will be a lot of fun but it's just too far to justify the trip.

Re: What's stopping you?
I think I can top everyones excuses!!
I drive 190 round trip..
Wife works!! She drives 110 miles round trip same direction - only been able to drive together a couple times, if we catch each other going opposite directions we switch vehicles (I get the RL!!)
We are trying to get a house ready for sale...
etc etc...

But on the bright side the $1200 check from gb should pay for it..

Since the 1st meet there too fun (& saved me money last year!!) to miss...

I don't think they'll allow dogs either!!
We may be able to share a ticket though....

Re: What's stopping you?
I guess I can't claim the distance excuse, it just happened to be scheduled for a really bad time for me. I'm sure those going will have a great time.

not the distance at all for me, just the location, and timing.

Re: What's stopping you?
I think the biggest reasons for me is $$$$, distance to drive and the time I'd have to do it and vacation time. I have to spend my vacation time and $$ with my family and trips to Florida and our annual beach house trip favor higher in their minds. I'm low man on the food chain (by choice ) so I have to do what the majority votes. Plus, I spend far too much time with my truck as it is...

By no means is it for lack of interest.
