well not so good news. im afraid i am not going to be able to make this one. it would be roughly a 20 hr drive there and another 20 hrs back. the price of gas , work and school assignments, its just a little too much at the moment. i was thinking i would be able to make it, but after looking into the actual trip a bit more and how long it would take, it is just not realistically going to happen. however i will be there in spirit! take plenty of photos for me so i can see what i missed. haha and tell me all about it when yall get back. i apologize to everyone that i cant make it this time. maybe if we had something closer (or a more gas friendly vehicle)
