well i would guess everyone has their ride and place to stay for kamloops........my question is who is riding with who and staying with who.......and is there anymore room if i decided to go..as now i do have the money but could be too little to late as it is almost time to leave..........i can go but i wont if its too much trouble......so anyone going let me know if you got extra room

Hey Doug,

When are you thinking of going? I'd like to go as well but I really should go to work on Friday so I'd like to leave late Friday afternoon, or Friday evening. That way we might be able to include Jarrod as well....

Also, do you have a car (full size) that we could take? Hotels shouldn't be a big problem I wouldn't think. $50/night is cheap. Or, I'm sure we could just sleep on the floor in Jody's room....

Let me know,
Blake

I don't think its too late - we are still trying to figure out our transportation up there. I was trying to get a 15 passenger van but I can't get it till Friday after 5:30 so that's out. I'm going to see if I can get my dad's truck. He uses it all the time so I didn't bother asking but we're starting to get desperate.... its a short box (more than enough room) with bench seats so lots of room in the front and less leg room in the back...

Talk to Glen and Gerry. I think they were pondering coming up but not Friday morning... we want to get up by 2:00 pm practice and get all set up, etc...

yeah i cant leave till around 2 on friday.........i didnt even know gerry and glen were thinking of comming ill talk to them but either way looks like i need a ride hopefully blake can get a full size car....... what are you guys driving up there.can you take any gear?

Doug, I *might* be able to get my parent's van for the trip. Otherwise we're riding in my Pony I guess. Should be fun on the Coca Cola.... At least it's cheap on gas.

What time do you want to leave on Friday? I'd be down with catching the 4PM boat. What do you think?

Jarrod, you in?

Blake

« **Reply #40 on:** September 14, 2005, 06:56:21 PM »

well the 4 sounds good to me.........and well with the price of gas the pony is a good car to own.......but what about our stuff could we get it in there or do you have your stuff going up with someone?

Blake · « **Reply #41 on:** September 14, 2005, 07:29:44 PM »

If it's just the two of us then everything should fit. If Jarrod ends up coming along then it'll be a little on the tight side.

OK, I've got the truck so we will be able to make it up - yay! I've got room to take some stuff up. I'll pick it up tomorow eve. I think we are leaving around 7:00 or so Friday morning. I could have got the camper as well but I'd rather just stay in a hotel since they are pretty cheap and I'd probably save that on gas from hauling the thing over the Coca Cola....
