McDude,
Not to worry, he doesn't charge a fee.

My nephew has been coming up to the lake since he was 6 weeks old and will never turn down an invitation to ride up with us. He's been there the past 5 or 6 winters with us. He's met the DRH's, Island Girl and Island Sib and even had lunch twice at Pepper's. Although he doesn't post, he's up on the Forum.
