Default Looking for a lift to Lakeland

If anyone from the Atlanta area is planning on attending the RV flyin in Lakeland, FL on Jan 19, 20 & 21 and needs some ballast, I would love to hitch a ride. I would be willing to split the fuel and provide in-flight entertaining conversation (or, if you desire, I will just shut up).
Thanks,
Steve Ashby

Hi Steve,
Kindly enlighten us on what's happening there. I may go but not for three days. If I'm solo, you have a seat.

Regards,

I'll be flying in early Sat.
Had a great time last year. Lots of RVs and plenty of giveaways at the clinics. I believe almost everybody walked away with a prize.

Hi Pierre,
I look forward to meeting you.
I'm not sure of the accomodations, some people camp, but it's a bit cold for us floridians.
