Subject:      Planning for trip..July 16-23 Can you help?

hey now,

well, me and amanda are heading north july 16...hopefully Rumba will be rebuilt and running well by then. gotta get up to speed on that. anyways, we are heading from raleigh, nc to ithaca, new york....a nice 12 hour trip in a car going 70-75...perhaps 14 or so in a bus. we are taking 1 north out of raleigh, then 85/95 to right before or after richmond (can't exactly remember) then cutting over to 81 and it's 81 through PA (anyone ever driven 81 through PA, man, ain't that a long drive?) and into NY.

any VW events going on around this time? anyone heading north and want to caravan? We are going to the Grassroots Festival...a 4 day music festival that is spectacular. if anyone is interested, i'll sent details. lots of bands, hippies, kind folks, busses, food, drink, et al.

also, in my many travels to ithaca, i've always sped up there in going way above the speed limits...in a car. now that Rumba will be in the best shape ever, i'd like to do some camping, see the sites, etc. anyone got some suggestions about good areas to camp?

lastly, any list members live along 81? in case i need help or something? or in case i just want to stop by and share a homebrew with you? i've been saving a keg of Armenian Stout (will be about 9.5% alcohol) for about 9 months now...gonna bring it to the festival! :-) i'd like to meet some of you folks!

happy Saturday!
