Nash Bash Ride Share info.

On another FB page I made a comment to some SFF friends about the Nash Bash, and I'd like to share it here in case anyone is interested. Maybe some folks on the fence about going will appreciate this info. Did some searching and calculating, and figured out that coming from Detroit I'd be willing to swing out of my way as far as 180 miles east or west, on my way to Nashville, but that's the max and if I'm doing that for one person, I can't go that far in the opposite direction to pick up anyone else. Just letting folks know in case that helps them decide if they want to go or not. (Fannie, take note If u live further E or W of that distance, I'd be willing to meet u to pick u up if u can get within that distance. (180 miles is about the distance from Nashville TN to Knoxville TN.) I can reasonably expect to get an average 12 MPG with my truck, so for that 180 miles it should translate to about 30 bucks for gas at $2.00/gallon. And cos I'm a nice guy and just want to see folks make it to the Bash, I'd only charge you half of that. ($15.00 based on the extra E or W miles, but then another half of the rest of the N and S miles of the distance u ride with me one way. --Again, Fannie take note: That would mean since u are on about the same latitude as Nashville, you would not owe for any N or S mileage. So if you can get to, or near, the same longitude as Knoxville, thereafter ur gas costs would be for E and W miles only, and thus a total of $30.00; $15 there + $15 back)

GBU all,

Gavin

Hi Gavin, what date is the bash? I haven't seen anything on the blogs about it.

Alfie...

It only takes a drop of ink to make a million people think. There are many stories.

Alfie!!!!

I thought for certain you and Abelle were already planning to be there! Thank gosh you know about it now! I'd TERRIBLY disappointed if I don't get the chance to meet both of you! You two are the SFF "Sweetheart Couple!"

Fortunately, my thanks to MrsJoe for posting all the info below! Please scroll down!

GBU, and PLEASE!!! Both of you make it to the Nash Bash!!

I should also add that I'd like to share hotel expenses with anyone who wants to share the room I've booked. It has two double beds, and only one of which I want for myself (Well, I may weaken on that point if Angelina Jolee keeps crying about it much more. She's really upset again.)

But as for the other bed, I don't care if it's occupied by you, and your mate, another friend, your basset hound, 3 motorcycles, the Great Pumpkin, Michelle Obama, and the Iowa State marching band! (But no more than that. We don't want it to be crowded.)

GBU all!
