I am guessing you mean Congaree, not Calgaree?  About 20 miles one way from Columbia.  For someone to take you there and pick you up, that’s  at least 80 miles per day, for $40.  $.50 per mile, not including payment for time or gas (which probably will run $8/day) nor use of their car.

The South may be less expensive than San Francisco, but while we are hospitable, that seems more like an insult than an offer.  But perhaps I am used to the relative wealth of Alabama…
