I’m going to my HS reunion that weekend but I’ll be up that way mid-October probably.
I tried to take Amfrak once, got to the station and they had no tikkies. It was only SAV-CHS. There was a car rental right next to the train station, was only a few $$ more to rent a car and get directly to my destination. Guy from the rental office drove me over and took the car. --FT Sent from iFōn > On Aug 11, 2022, at 9:56 PM, Allan Streib via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > It's fun for a while.
