OK well, you go boy…
Banjo Ben's Inaugural Cabin Camp, March 28-30, 2019!
Is there a “daily schedule” posted up yet? Just want to discuss it with my wife who is coming as an extra so she can plan her days in Nashville since she’ll have our vehicle.
I’m about to release detailed session descriptions, but the schedule is set. Spouses are welcome to arrive a half hour before suppertime.
Thursday: Student-only welcome lunch at noon, guests arrive at 6PM for a 6:30PM suppertime, jams end at 9PM.
Friday: Students arrive at 9AM (breakfast not served), guests arrive at 6PM for a 6:30PM suppertime, jams end at 9PM.
Saturday: Students arrive at 9AM (breakfast not served), guests arrive at 6PM for a 6:30PM suppertime, jams end at whenever we get done 
Sunday: 9AM church service at Tulip Grove Baptist, class at 10:30, end at 11:30AM. Lunch somewhere, then head to Carter’s Vintage guitars around 1PM. All welcome, of course.
I just sent out an email to all attendees with directions, instructions, and itinerary. Let me know if you didn’t get it! Here’s a pic of the camp schedule:

Food glorious food. What are the odds you guy’s are going to put on a few extra pounds before this weekend is out.

Ambitious schedule to be sure, but not unlike Band Camps I’ve been to. It always seems like trying to drink through a fire-hose, but got to be willing to move on to the next subject in schedule and put everything into long-term memory to be digested later. Will send up prayers that all goes well and everyone is inspired.

So I just booked my rental car. Apparently all of the companies play a little game. If I booked the car Thursday - Sunday, the price was $15 a day. If I started the rental on Wednesday, the price jumped to $68 a day. I called, and there was no way to adjust the price.
So, I created 2 separate bookings. One for Wednesday, returning Thursday morning, and one Thursday - Sunday evening. The first day costs as much as all the other days combined. Worst case scenario, though, I just have to drive back to the airport and get another car. Not a big deal.
Just wanted to give you folks a heads up.

Yeah, they do that, and I’ve solved it exactly the way you did.

Y’all take lots of video of the carter vintage trip. that’s one of my dream destinations
5 minutes of extra booking time is definitely worth the $364 I saved (after all the taxes.)

I just picked up a huge redheaded bearded Aggie banjo picker that smelled of snow from the airport … @5stringpreacher is now in Tennessee time!
