We are starting to plan the trip to and from Okteenerfest.
If you would like to travel with us, just let us know. The more the merrier. Any and all suggestions, ideas, etc.. are greatly appreciated. We have been to Okteenerfest multiple times, and twice to Banner Elk, so here are the gotchas. 1. Registration in Banner Elk on Thursday is usually 3 to 7 in the afternoon/evening. It's better to get there early rather than late because registering on Friday is a pain in the ass. It's a lot more fun to get there early enough to get settled in, meet people, and figure out dinner. We normally make Wednesday a long day, and Thursday a short day of driving. 2. The time change. Around Rockwood, TN, on highway 40, we lose an hour. It bit us hard a couple years ago. 3. Anyone who is pulling a trailer is going to need a safe place to park when we stop for the night, both there and back. 4. Leaving DFW, Betty and I are going to trailer one car, and drive another, both trying to clear Dallas morning rush hour traffic to get to I-30 headed east. A long first day favors leaving early. Questions for the group. What time are y'all comfortable leaving in the morning? We found that leaving at 7am works for us. In the past we have found hotels that were running $60 to $80 a night. What is a comfortable price range for a hotel for y'all? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
