I finished prepping Match Game SF last night, which took some hours as I sorted through what prizes we still have and picked out the questions I want to use. Our show is only 1 h 15 m, so I'll be surprised if we get more than three games, but it should be entertaining. Also, as it has now been more than two years since our last show, if we are reusing questions from back then, even people who happened to be there might not remember them.
Lisa is our Loadmaster for this trip, and she says we're about 85% packed. Tomorrow as soon as I can log off from Day Jobbe we can finish packing our personal luggage and set off for Bishop, which is where we're spending tomorrow night. I was talking to people this evening online and they seemed surprised that we were leaving tomorrow instead of driving from Fernley to LAX in a single day. "It's about 800 kilometers!" I said. "Maybe when I was 26 I'd do that drive in one day, but not thirty years later. As much as we like these road trips, we also don't like putting too much distance into each day of driving.
I'm happy we've got as much packed as we do, though. I was really worried yesterday, and happy to have gotten most of the critical stuff done with a day to spare.
