If you are interested:
Find out if you can go ASAP. The quicker you act, the easier getting housing will be.
This trip presents several hardships for me, so I must defer some to you. Specifically, we'll be splitting the $138 gas cost evenly, where your obligation to me is determined by how many people ar egoing altogether:
2: $69
3: $46
4: $34
5: $28
The second requirement if you want to go is that you have to arrange transportation to and from where you live to where I live. Again, we are departing at 8:00 Friday morning, and you are welcome to sleep over Thursday night. Here is the address of Melrose, where I live at the University of Florida:
1000 SW 62nd Blvd
Gainesville, FL 32607
I can bring up to 4 people; if more apply, I'm going to give priority to people based on being a friend, being a pro, and applying early, in that order.
Storage for the trip is limited to my trunk unless less than 5 people are in the car. This can easily fit personal belongings and accessories for the 2 night stay. It's always good to bring TVs, but we are limited to the unused trunk space and possible empty seats in the car, so this would be something we'll determine later. If you are driving yourself and don't mind the possibility of leaving your TV in your parked car over the weekend, you can always bring it and we'll fit it if we can.
If you live somewhere far from me but near the route I will be taking, we can talk about you meeting me on the way, but you would have to be there before me, and have a ride back from the same point that Monday morning.
