Alright kiddies, I just rented an RV:

29 Foot 'C' Class
2 beds, a sofa and a dinette
Fridge, freezer, microwave, stove, oven
Bathroom
They say there is room for 9 comfortably, but that a group of 11 recently took one to Whistler.

The rental is Friday-Sunday and Baraboodish has agreed to handle pick-up and help with drop-off (THANKS!).

The rental is $659.94 wtih 200 free miles. I anticipate we'll need to add $70-$90 at $0.35/mile after the 200. That price includes cleaning and a tank dump as well as taxes, fees, insurance, etc.

So with 19 one-way trips by the attendees I am counting, I figgure that comes to about $39 per person each way, or $78 round-trip. If everyone participates. If the #s dont add up, I'll either take up a collection or just eat the deficit. Any overage goes to beer for the fridge.

It'd be nice to get that money NOW, rather then have to leave you somewhere in EastBumFrig Oregon to be eaten by bears and sasquach.

So please send the appropriate amount of $$ to paypal account [email protected] and post here either "paid one way" and a direction or "paid round trip"...

I've already laid the $500 deposit, so nobody better screw up the ride, doode.

Now, on to the details of picking a driver, finding a place in Portland to park the beast, schedule, etc, etc.

BTW, we also have 5 hours of 'generator time' to run the AC nd microwave even with the engine off...
