I note that I didn't do a con report last year, probably because we travelled on to Ohio for Thanksgiving. This year warranted one, I think. Photos will be coming in a later post. I have a handful of good ones. :)

Another year gone, and we're back home from Midwest Furfest 2012.

The Good

• Travel. Again, this went very smoothly this year. We had just gotten through security in Winnipeg and were waiting in the International lounge when we heard about the massive computer issues that United were having. However, our plane arrived at the gate ahead of schedule ( Read more... )

First, passing on a link... Hey elynne!! Have you see Gluten-Free Girl? Recipes and other good stuff for the gluten intolerant ( Read more... )

I don't know if I'll have time to come up to the Internet room before we get out of here, so I'll go ahead and do this now...

Wow. What an awesome con. plonq and I were waffling about coming back next year because we wanted to see about hitting one of the larger sci-fi cons, something like Dragon*Con. We really can only fit one con into our schedule ( Read more... )

Hello. It is 11:00pm on Saturday, and it's time for your yearly fire alarm.

Yes, there was another one this year. Maybe next year they can toss this on the schedule.

(All glibness aside, the staff handled everything very well and professionally, just like last year. Color me impressed. :)

So it's Saturday already ( Read more... )
