Gas costs will be evenly distributed regardless of where you get picked up unless we/you can make arrangements with your driver. But if there is a money Issue please send me an emial, dont be ashamed, there might be people willing to provide money because they can't be there but want others to be able to. So please, PLEASE , contact me at the very least!

Hi Mike .

If there's enough people that want to go I may
go and take on passengers also . Depending
on how many I may take my vehicle + 3 passengers
or take Lorenes SUV + 7 .( Fuel cost equally spread)
Meet at 1 specific location , say where buses left for
Washington DC trip ! Eastview mall

Guy, I'd like to go but have limited vacation time due to the operation I'm having on the 29th of this month, so sadly I won't be able to go.

So guy, what would be an ideal number for you? Serious question. Ill work to get it. If we can fill our cars we would have 10, but if we can get like 4-8 cars I'm sure we would have a rather large group (30-40)? Not to mention other groups that will show up just as much.

No one should feel obligated to go. Don't lose your job over this. Or go broke doing it.

I'd love to go if someone has room for me. My 12 year old van isn't up to a trip to Albany. I live in the Dansville Wayland area. Will drive to meet some where. Willing to share cost of gas, etc.

barb we will put you on the list as reserved. Thank you for committing. Please edit your post as to where you live so we can hook you up with the appropriate person. Also note how far your willing/able to trave to a pickup point. I'll update this post with pickup points.

Barb,
I'm driving from Geneseo with Paul from Livonia. My car will fit 4, so you can come with us. email me and I will give you my phone number.

I live near Weedsport NY off exit 40 on the NYstate Thruway I'd love to meet up and go with you guys let me know?

Adam, its getting a bit late and I'm going inactive till tomorrow evening most likely. But would you need to be picked up from your home or could you meet at a gas station along the way? I'm sure we can arrange something.

I took the day off so I can go, I'll be coming from Chili. I can drive myself no problem and pick a few people up on the way in either a 10 year old van that's a tad loud, (but reliable), or a 10 year old Corolla that's also in good shape and can easily make the trip, but only seats 4. I'd prefer to go a little earlier since I work nights, and don't usually go to bed until around 5:00 AM, so I'm going to be just skipping sleep that night anyway. Is anyone interested in leaving around 1:00 AM? Or maybe a tad later/earlier? I'm thinking getting a little better positioning might be worth the extra time. (plus maybe I'll nap for an hour on a lawn somewhere leaning up against a tree or something!)
