It's just a long straight drive once you get past Greenville.

How long is the drive? google says 3 hrs 20 mins.

If there is no traffic and you do not stop that is accurate.  I live 10 miles (farther) from DFW airport and I usually make it in about 3 1/2 hours if it is not rush hour.

If anyone is headed to SWAG and can pony express a pair of Kp-3002's and a small rack I would really appreciate it. They are located in Valley View just North of Denton Texas. I might be able to get these to someone in Dallas with enough heads up.

I'm still trying to get my money refunded from the Super 8 after cancelling in March. Expedia shows it as an open reservation even though I cancelled with the hotel in Hope. Has anyone else had issues with the refund?

Yes. I booked through Hotels.com.(part of expedia I think). They billed my credit card immediately. If you book with the hotel directly they won't charge you until after your stay. When the April date got postponed I tried to cancel. No Go. Finally had to dispute with the CC company. So after about 3 months it finally got straightened out. What did I learn? HOTELS.COM NEVER AGAIN.

Expedia said they need to Super 8 to approve the refund before it can be processed. I guess I need to dispute it with the CC company. WTF

Is this part of the reason some of you are staying at the Hampton?

No.  Ive never had a problem with refunds as I book with the hotel itself.

Three of you - in one room? That ain’t dedication - that’s downright perverse. But then again, it is Carl. And it is in Arkansas so yeah, it makes some sense.

Mark, I called the Super 8 myself after booking through Expedia and being told the same thing.  It was a little back and forth, but Super 8 approved the refund and Expedia verified it with them and in about 45 days, I got the refund.  I would call the hotel first and have that discussion.

Only you would make that assumption, but that actually makes sense.

Take leave of your senses? Just to see us

[babadono 6790]

What about @seti ? Are you joining us.

[ssh 531]

I booked with the hotel. They don't charge you when you book. When I cancelled, there was no problem. Super 8 has gone out of their way to be accommodating since the first revival of the gathering.
