If I was going to drive again, I'd really just wait and go to Hamvention. 
Shelby is a six hour round trip in one day while Hamvention is a twelve hour
drive round trip.  I'd rather spend the time and gas going to Hamvention but if
my dad KD7SXQ is going I'll ride along with him.  These days, me and longish
road trips don't get along though a few years ago I was driving to
Williamsport, PA, in a single eleven hour trip each way for work every other
week.

Never again.

Driving to Hamvention really wouldn't be too bad for me to do alone but I'd
probably bring along my dad and a few ham friends locally to split the gas and
drivers.  If I manage to get myself a working motorhome, that would be even
better (or a vehicle and a little 16' Scamp trailer for myself).

73,
Sean KD5COL
