Here's the path I would take, if I decide I can make it, anyway. I'd probably drive over to Roanoke on a Thursday and stay with somebody I know that lives there and continue on Friday morning.

I am in Atlanta. If I have my T56 and I'm up and runnig byt then I am definitely game. Anyone coming from South Georgia up 85? Or I am willing to eithier go up the 75 and meet people in Tennesee or join the group going up the 95. Lots of options, just don't particularly want to ride up alone if I don't have to.

You could always set up a meeting place for the FL guys to like at a rest stop exit, just an idea.

I'm coming in from Fort Mill, SC, right outside of Charlotte. How many more SC people heading up? We could pick up you VA people on the way...

I figure I-77 to I-85 up until MD, then hang a left...

Whats up EB, I'm in Rock hill!!! I go to Winthrop University. We need to meet up sometime. Give me a call at 803-524-6415 or my dorm # 803-323-3588. And yes we should definitely pick the VA people up and caravan. That would kick @ss. I've got at least 3 other thirdgenners coming with me (Xceleratemaro, and ricebeater are 2 of em)!!

Once you guys get your meeting spot all sorted out, let me know about meeting us SC guys on the way. I'm not sure how many are coming from this area yet, but I think 3 from around here and another one upstate.

I figure that at least I can get together with Chris (topless) if he goes and Brian (No4NJunk) and some of you guys coming up from Charleston and guys coming up from further south. It all depends on the schedules we all have to keep. I'm planning on going on Friday but that could change. Drop me a line or post if interested.

You guys have you hotel rooms reserved yet?
