Look, I hate to be the one to bring it up, but are we trying too hard to make this work? When BTP himself can’t make it because of the logistics, we need to take a hard look at what’s do-able, and what’s not.
I’m going round and round with Amtrak, because they have two trains leaving within 12 minutes of one another, and the price is $30 different. Guess which one works better for me? I would have to
Take the LIRR to Penn Station
Take the Amtrak to Washington, Union Station
Take the Washington Subway to Virginia
And meet Mule to drive the rest of the way.
Reverse that on the return.
It would be great to be able to go down to Myrtle Beach, but I really begin to wonder if it is our best option. Vlan can’t go because of the same scheduling problems. If the destination is 4-5 hours away, a weekend is easily accomplished. When the destination is 12-14 hours away, it gets a lot harder. Just wanted to get that out there. I know it’s late in the game, but I had no idea it would be this difficult.
