    Re: [RC] sharing expenses - DeAnn Schnepple


    You're right, Brenda.  But of course you are one of the people that have gone with me before you owned a camper.  We always had a blast!!  You were kind enough to always pay for gas and go way beyond what was needed.  Plus you're the type of person that helps others as well!  The person I'm taking about just took, took and took!!
    Hope you're having fun with your new mare!!

    I think we all owe a debt to those that came before us, and helped us
    along when we had no idea what we were doing, or were even to
    ignorant to know what questions to ask or what is expected from us
    financially or personally.

    I feel that mentorship (and befriending newbies) is a giving back to
    the sport, just like volunteering at the rides. I enjoy talking to
    the new people, and it's always fun having a large pool of other
    riders to call on when you want to go ride.  I'm not in it for the
    money, and have no intentions of charging
    mentoring/training/mileage/advice/pick you up in my trailer because
    you're right around the corner and haven't bought yours yet fees.

    Splitting the gas expenses seems reasonable to me, and it's what I've
    done both as the camper owner, and the camper user.  If I don't enjoy
    that person's company (friend) then I wouldn't invite them in the
    first place.

    I usually end up getting spoiled, as the people that come with me are
    much better cooks and I get great food in the bargain!
