home safe, had fun
 
well boys and girls, we made it home safe and sound. it was most excellent to meet everyone in person after so many years. when will i be able to make my hotel reservation for next year? :D

note to self: always remember to refuel the rental car before you get to close to the airport and cannot find a gas station. the car was $6.99 / gallon! :eek:

Holy moly?!?!?! What company did you rent from? When I flew down to Texas it was $1.60 a gallon for the company to refill, at that was just last month. And glad to hear you made it

Hope you both decide to come next year. I also want to thank the organizers of this year's extravaganzer. It was the best ever Reading.

So many thanks to Diahana, Earl, (Winnebago) Tom, and especially John.
Every one of you did a marvelous job.

I made it home. I'm safe.. Car.. Not sooo safe.. Unfortunately.. On my way down on 495 near Alexandria VA... I hit a pot hole... I'm not very happy.. It blew my tire and bent my wheel.. I'm sure my alignment will be screwed too.. I am soooo pissed right now..

Just made it home safe a little while ago. Fairly heavy traffic the whole way back unlike the smooth trip there. Was nice to put some faces to the screen names on the forum and I had a blast. Hopefully I'll be able to get my SVX out there next year.

i rented the car from dollar. i intended to refuel right before the airport, but didn't see a single gas station from the highway in the last 20 miles. had i know this, i could have opted for the prepaid tank of gas or at the pre-agreed rate, both of which were between $2.25 and $2.50. if i fly in next year, i will just top off the tank in morgantown and only have two gallons or so from the car rental place.

bad deal carlos! hopefully it wasn't from the lack of sleep since someone was still out in the parking lot at 5:00 a.m. yesterday morning. ;)
