Because gas was cheaper.

For our calculations, we used gas a variable at 3.85 per gallon.

Plus, the Yukon doesn't have too sexy of mileage.

My boss told me either I work those days or im fired too. And unfortunately im not in the financial position to go even a day without a job :(

We are coming back on the 10th.

So, I was redoing the math for the gas and everything. Then twin said that he wasn't able to come, so it came back to 30$ for gas.

Let me find out how much gas is up in CO

Hey guys, sorry to say, but I won't be able to make it to CO either. I don't have the funds, or, moreover, the time. School is starting waaay soon, and there's still a bunch of stuff to be done. I still have to crack open this ACT practice book and do a couple of tests (part of the deal I made in order to get permission to go to AZ12, since we had to reschedule my ACT for that), plus I have the chance this weekend to hang out with various people I haven't hung out with at all this summer. Sorry guys, if this was any previous weekend, I'd be down for sure, but right now school and other obligations are looming too large.

Thank you for responding in any fashion. I recently purchased a new controller and am trying extremly hard to break it in.

I can be patient, but please do not take my patience as dismissive.

Alright, so I did some more math, assuming we DON'T stop on the way there, the cost for the gas should only be 25$ per person, or around that. If I am off, I will pay the difference.

So gas is 25$ IF we have 7 people.

Hey, Tony, wanna pitch in for gas?

Sorry to be the bearer of more bad news...but I won't be able to go on the CO trip either.


As Steven said, school is coming up fast and I have way too much stuff to get done this weekend. Plus I don't have enough money at the moment to afford it.

Sorry guys.

If you need more people to go contact either Lewis, Cameron, or Neil. One of them might be interested in going.

Oh wait one minute.

So we have 3 people that can't make it.

So now it is me, Erich, Johnny, and Kash? Those are the original ones? Maybe we should just goto a smaller car now.

johnny, I am gonna talk to my dad, and see if we can just cut down to 1 room for the hotel, and to a car with better mileage.

He got the days off already?! Wow, If one person doesn't mind double seating i think we could do it that way.(Which by the way would be pretty odd.) Now I am just trying to cut down on losses.

See if we take the Yukon, it has 8 seats, but it has bad mileage. But if we take the camry which has great mileage, but only 5 seats we save alot of money.


I am trying to figure everything out now.

I think that would work I think. Let me work out the money issues.

Also, Johnny, we would switch beds and sleeping bags.

Day 1, Me and my Dad, Erich and Davis, would get beds. Day 2, My Dad would be with me most likely(just because he's my dad.) and then you two would be on the bed.

But, good idea Johnny.

Alright so any new developments? And those sleeping arrangements are fine.

Also, if you guys do decide to take the camry, I might be able to take my own car to springs. But would it still be cool if we paid our part for housing?

but thats if you decide to take the camry i suppose.

Cool, just tell him the rules.

NO swearing, no Drugs, no being rude to my father.


Oh yeah, and bring a wii.
Can I drink?

Haha, just kidding. Don't freak out.

Hmm, to go or not to go? That is the question.

There haven't been any smashfests at all, so I'm very rusty. My Snake and Metaknight aren't tournament ready yet. Oh the humanity.

How about a day other than Thursday? Thursday is my end-of-summer-and-remodel-Davis'-room party day.
