Your beers are on me. No kidding. Everyone with a Gunco shirt on will be tossed out.

Gunco and Chief and Winn will be beating us with sticks too "get out."
"Great too meet you guys. NOW get out."

No, Saturdays are reserved "all you can eat Chinese buffet" for Bluejack!!

Seriously though, I do think we'll be coming down to Charlotte in May for a Gunco-meet.

We need to post where everyone plans to stay and maybe we can hook up at the hotel bar after the show.

If it rains will you guys let me in the cab? What about snow.

Will you guys go slow when I have to go P.P. out the back?
Can we stop at South of The Border? I never pass South of The Border rest stop.
I like that place better than Disney World.
Not really sure about this offer. What if my hands are frozen when we get there? Will you hold my wallet and help me pay for stuff?
If I bang on the window will you guys stop for more beer?
Let me call Delta again and do the math on the cost factor here.
Do I have to chip in for gas if I ride in the back?
Give me some time too think about this one?
Damn now the old lady wants to go. I knew this was gonna happen.
Mind if she rides in the back with me?

I'm going to throw this one out as a suggestion.

I've stayed in La Quintas before and thought that it was a nice place for the money. They have free shuttles to and from the airport (as do most of them) every 30 minutes for those of us flying in.

Here's some more options.

They are nice places. Yes they are. Good price also.
In traveling through the Carolina's there is a lot of Military personnel in that A.O. traveling.
Anyone booking a place to stay bring anything showing you were or are in the Military. Carolina seems to be pretty darn good on Military discounts.
Military rates beat AAA and all my other discount cards.
Also car rental. I recently went to Connecticut and the first price I got from Hertz was $725 some dollars for a 11 day car rental.
As soon as I said Military the price changed to $325 including tax, with free mileage.

It looks like the La Quinta does not have a lounge, but these two do.

You know what La Quinta means?

Next door to a Denny's.

Looks like $120 & $80 per night. Sounds good to me.

I just checked flights from Daytona to Charlotte.
$1450 if I want a non-refundable.
$360 refundable.
Maybe the back of Pirates truck is starting too sound a little better.
