And what about that guy from almost Mexico who comes up every year...? :P

20 hours of boredom each way, but still worth the trip!

This is what Jim said over at the XT forum (he set up the reservations this year)

"The weekend we picked out seems to be the busiest one of the summer so far, so we didn't get our pick of the litter when it comes to accomodations:

There are 12 Dogwood cabins reserved and 2 campsites (with hookups), and we have until February 29th to claim them. The Laurels were all on reserve as well as the entire lodge. That DOES NOT mean that you won't be able to get one of those, but you will have to wait until they come off reserve to grab one. There are Azalea cabins available, but they are higher priced, so I didn't bother to reserve any.

The GOOD news is that we are getting the "dragon slayer" discount, which is 15% off any cabin and 25% off any room. Just mention that you are with the Subaru Alcyone group and ask for the "dragon slayer" discount when you reserve your room/cabin/campsite. The discount is good for ANY room/cabin, even those not on reserve for us, and even after the reserve date is up.

The thing to do at this point would be to call and make a reservation if you plan on going, even if you want something that is not available. There are 85 rooms at the lodge on reserve for the Solstice/Sky group until May 1st, and I was told that they have very little chance of actually filling them. That means that if you reserved a dogwood cabin now and called on May 1st you could switch your reservation from the cabin to the room and still get the discount. That way, if all else fails you will still have the dogwood and you aren't left out in the cold. The same goes for those of you wanting Laurels cabins. If you want one of those, call group sales and ask for the date that they come off reserve so you know when to switch. "



So anyway, go buy a SVX Calendar, as the procedes go toward prizes at the Dragon Meet!!! (See Sig)
Hi Huck
See if you can swing a discout on gas there in Fontana Village. Promise we will all fill up if they knock a $1.00 of their going price. If you have any other discounts or ideas on cheaper gas, let us know.

I will be looking up Sam's club gas stations along my route from Mississippi to the dragon.

I doubt I could work a discount on gas anywhere...asmost staitions only mark up gas 2-4 cents per gallon....it's the big Oil companies that are rapeing us...

we're only getting 2 cents a gallon mark up right now...
(that barely covers the cost to pump it out of the ground)

there are some great tips here: www.cleanmpg.com

I will be testing my fuel economy on the way up.

Re: Dragon Meet

Just a friendly bump... I am still trying to get permission from the wife to take a day trip on Saturday the 28th...

Or maybe I can shoot for Friday evening and head back sometime mid afternoon Saturday if someone would care to share some floor space, as the move to the new house has me strapped for cash.

One way or another, mad wife or not I really want to be there...
