    Leaving Canada sometime in the next 12 hours or so..
    Had a really good time this evening going to the 'Artery' meetup. Sucks that Deathkitten or Brome couldn't make it, but oh well, had a GREAT time anyways (and instructed some of the members to harrass you two next time they see you). Funny how a few good events can change my attitude towards an area.

    I'm going to make a point of traveling up to this area again; if I don't end up working in seattle or somewhere up here, I'm definitely gonna do another roadtrip sometime down the road.

    Time to hit the road for the second to last leg of this little escapade. Still haven't decided whether I want to take the coastal 101 or inland on 5... 11+ hours of driving vs 8+ hours. "The view" isn't so much a concern as "how damn tired I am when I get to Arcata". laugh.gif

    Hey dude, congrats on making the rounds. It's unfortunate I was as unavailable as I was while you were up here. Damn shame if you ask me.

    It was indeed awesome meeting all of you in person, and I really hope to do so again some time in the future. Having relatives in both areas that were just as glad to have me around made the trip even more enjoyable. I could go on and on about this, but I'll simply say if you'd like to chat or reminisce, drop me a line. Most of you already have one of my IM nicknames, and if not, message me on here and I'll pass it along.

    Oh, and that 'thing that happened to me at the USA / Canada border'? I got pulled aside and had my car drug searched (sniffing dog and all)... I guess looking like I do, driving from California, and driving a car "that belongs to my dad" that is a nice big Cadillac... makes me a drug smuggler! laugh.gif
