Re: [Texascavers] misadventure
I looked into Megabus as an option for getting to Mallory's wedding. When I looked, a couple of months before the wedding date, I could have gotten to Baton Rouge for $2 ! There was one bus change in Houston and the entire trip would have taken 9 hours overnight. I opted to fly instead, but it just goes to show that a little planning a few months ahead will eliminate a lot of stress, expense, and lost time. You can buy your tickets well in advance while those cheap seats are available, and if you don't use them, you are only out the few bucks. If David chooses to use Megabus in the future, some of us might be the losers - for he could only write that the trip was uneventful and he got a good night's sleep. That would also make some of us very happy! Happy travels David. On Thu, Jun 20, 2019 at 2:32 PM Mallory wrote: > I love MegaBus!

Re: [Texascavers] misadventure
I love MegaBus! I’ve never gotten a ticket for anything close to $1 but I’ve ridden it from Houston to Baton Rouge and back a couple of times. It’s also very popular for kids who want to visit New Orleans and get absolutely hammered. Mega Bus saves money because they don’t have brick-and-mortar bus stations, but do pickups and drop offs in parking lots, etc. The New Orleans stop is in the French Quarter. Come down for a couple of days, drink yourself silly and lose your mind, and get back on the bus and sleep all the way home. (A few years ago I met some Texas kids at a Mardi Gras parade who were taking this course of action.) The buses offer WiFi - although it doesn’t always work - and charging stations to plug in between every seat. David, if you’re still stranded up there, look online and see if a Mega Bus 🚌 is around! You can plug your phone in and blast out emails the whole way home.

Re: [Texascavers] misadventure
Wednesday night, 11 p.m. I am in a nice clean motel on the south side of the east Texas town of Carthage. I would have made it to Tenaha, had I not been such a w*ssie. I got a large dose of Americana today, as I was not able to find a single Craigslist ride. I learned Sunni Muslims believe Adam had 10,000 children. They allegedly want to every Shite.My first ride out of Cookeville was an old man who scared the cr*p out of me. He was me from the future, 2030, appearing as some sort of bizarre apparition, like that song about Hank Williams in the Cadillac. It felt like a horse kicking me in the gut. He had done a lot of spelunking in his youth, but no organized caving. ( Cedar Creek Cave ? in East Tennessee ) Oztotl or one of the recently deceased cavers or both must have looked out for me. The old guy was willing to drop me off at my aunt"s door in Hot Springs. But I decided to press on and visit her another time. Unfortunately, it all went downhill from there. It took me 8 hours to get from there to this motel. I wasted another hour after that, but it became futile to press on. So far to date, this trip has cost me roughly $ 442. But I lost about $ 300 in work so far. I am still about 8 hours from home, if I had a straight shot.
