    Are you planning on trying to find a room?

    Nah, everything is sold out or super expensive. If I go up Sunday, I'll probably just sleep in my car.

    Best of luck to all participants. May the wind always be at your back and the sun on your face... oh wait...

    I was thinking this as well.
    I've got stuff to do on Monday, but I'm sticking close to home.

    Got my reservations next to the Alamo - Gonna watch from the Alamo and head to the River Walk to view the people.
    Oops - long range weather forecast indicates heavy rain on April 8, 2024.

    According to Orbitz, there are 4 rooms left in Casper for Sunday night, available to you for only $2,500 per room. Such a deal, especially since one of the motels appears to be a total dive.

    I guess someone canceled. A few weeks ago there were 3 rooms starting at $1200. All of them were dives.

    I'm guessing there will be a buyer at that price.

    Been hearing a lot of people are blowing off work Monday. Some excused, some not. The thinking is it's a big enough deal that it's somehow justified if unexcused.

    If you're going I would pack extra food, water, blankets in the event you are stuck on the road overnight.

    Drove to the PKA show (now the Denver Knife Show) today. I-25 is a parking lot, I-70 West Bound approaching I-25 from the East is backed up to DIA airport, and I-225 intersecting I-25 is stopped near Cherry Creek Dam.
    Dang, the parade has started early!
