Automatic: gas - break, gas - break, that's it.
On the way to SF you pass by exactly where I live close to Sacramento. We can have a beer. Take a rental car. You are much more independent.

I've bussed from NYC to Rochester before...and did a bus from Albany to Daytona Beach ONCE...YIKES!!! Bussing is WAY different in the states than overseas. On the 26 hour trip to Daytona I saw a woman get saved by Jesus, spent several hours stuck at a bus station in North Carolina too nervous to sleep because I figured my bags would go "missing" and I'm not a nervous person...

A train from NYC to Rochester is $75...I'd say it's well worth the extra $. Esp. if you're bringing your girlfriend...although, NYC to Roch is only about 6 hours by bus (4 by train), so it would certainly let you determine if you want to go that way.

I'd go with the rental car...and an automatic is definitely the way to go. Not my preference, but SOOO easy. If you drive a manual, an automatic takes no time at all to figure out...
Yeah, the dropping off somewhere else sucks...if you're taking the Vancouver loop out of it, it might be worth renting in the city (or in Roch), doing a loop on the east coast, and then jumping a flight to SF...

And, YES, you're welcome to crash here and we'll have to hook up with lefteye...he's just up the road...woohoo...FK party!!
Also, lots to see in this area...let me know if you're up for some kitesurfing, rock climbing, kayaking, skydiving, etc.

NICE!!

Did you go downtown? Do the hookers still hang out in the back parking lot? That was always fun at 2:00 am.

Once per semester, at RIT, they'd have the guys from Nick's come in to serve plates in the dining hall - was never as good as downtown though...especially without the 'pros.'

[flashpipe1]

Yeah, I cheated and went to Tom Wahls...not the same, but certainly more "family friendly"

Not that I know anything about the back parking lot...

From what I've seen, the Deep Blues Festival is in Minneapolis so I dont really know of any camping sites close by. I imagine you'd be a ways away from the actual festival if you camped.

Damn, yeh you're right. It was held out at Lake Elmo last year so I figured it would be out of town a bit again. I'm attempting this trip on $bawhair, I'll be coming over with no more than ~$800-$1000 (credit cards cleaned just in case) so I'd rather avoid hotels

Unforetunately that means renting a car is out of the question. I'm just gonna have to brave the bus. Gerbs, doesn't look like jetblue fly from anywhere I'm interested in. Go and throw a few more names at me...

That sounds arite to me I remember the first time I went to London on my own I purposefully grew a beard and dressed really scruffy so I looked like I didn't have anything worth stealing.

I've been shabby chic for 5 years and counting now

Are you coming by plane? Are you that close?

[EVPohovich]

Dude... I live in Roseville right now, that's right next to Sacramento.

[cancerinform]

We went to Rocklin today. I think it's time to meet.

What do you like pork with beer or steak with beer?

Well if this is a big event, and the campground is a ways offsite, I'm sure they'll have shuttles going back and forth so you shouldnt have to worry about a car.

[flashpipe1]

You can get flights from Roch. to Minneapolis for around $130...

You could probably buy a car for $1000, drive it all over and then sell it (or leave it with some FKer to sell for you), but I'm not sure what issues you might run into with registering, insuring, etc.

Lots of options...

Sounds like there's going to be some drinking and animal killing going on over on the west coast there...nice!!

Hell dude, you were damn near at my new house... I live right next to Woodcreek High School.

What do you like pork with beer or steak with beer?

Yes...
