I live near Houston and just to the N/W side of town we have the
junction of EM10 EM20 EL19 & EL29.

I could rent a bus and load it up with a bunch of my friends, (ok and
acquaintances too) say 30 or so as not to pack them to tightly each
with our own Yaesu VX7RB. Meet up at a spot and drive out to Waller
TX (S/E corner of EM20). Let everyone off the bus and work them one
by one. Load the bus back up and drive 3 miles west to the corner of
Hwy 290 & FM 359 unload the bus and like shampooing your hair, "wash,
rinse repeat". Now move south down 359 to Monaville unload the bus
get a soda and guess what. After everyone finishes their soda jump
back on the bus, drive down to FM529 hang a left go about 3 miles to
FM 362 and do it again.
Take everyone back to their cars, return the bus. Total time a few
hours, total miles, less than a hundred, total fuel cost about $50.
Priceless ! ! !
