Frank - Can you make May only, or do think you might be able to join in on the April trip as well?

Depends on the amount of baggage he has to bring.
Edit, I knew that word was spelled wrong, yet I left it there.

I doubt it for April. It's gonna be hard enough to make the May trip with everything that is going on.

Okay. Just checking. I hope that your schedule get a bit less chaotic so that you can definately make May, and hopefully make April.
The clean fresh air coupled with Hummer exhaust fumes will do you good!

You NY guys ( I live in NY and CO about 50/50) might want to read this. I wrote it targed towards snowmobiling but it applies to wheeling as well.

I did not wonder, i did a little research.
Not sure where you how you arrived at your assumptions, but the cheapest airfare I could find was for about $235 per person roundtrip. That’s $470 for 2 people. But it leaves at 5:25AM! And takes over 7 hours! Not sure where you got 3 ½ hours from JFK, there are no direct flights that I could find. Times 3 weekends = $1,410
Soft cost – travel time to airport plus extra 2.5 hours once you are to park car and get through security. Loss of about 2 days for travel. 4 – 10 hours each way. I’m at Paragon and on the trails in less time.
Park car at airport - $10+ per day. 3 days = $30 x 3 weekends = $90.
$100+ for food shopping each weekend. No eating out. X 3 weekends = $300
Above is up to $1,800!
Now add all the costs for leaving your Hummer there.
Not appealing to me. On the assumption that you travel Friday and Sunday night, things get worse. Those are some of the busiest times at the airports. Might work for snowmobilers, not me.
Come and join us at Paragon. It’s the best the east has to offer.
