Back from DragonCon - drove the Galaxie four hours there and back. Miss anything while I was gone?

Was there myself. Wish I had heard you were going. There were bound to be other Opponauts there.

Was driving the Galaxie without incident the best part?

Also, photos? f86sabre posted a bunch. Can’t believe you two didn’t meet up.

You missed the Rambling Wreck give up a 14 point lead

The most hair-raising part was being paranoid about it keeping cool while I got stuck for two extra hours in a traffic jam. On the way down. There was *one* incident - a connection issue on the way back on the starter, causing it to refuse to start initially after a fill up.

One of my younger brothers was on picture duty and should have them up to his drive soon.

I usually don’t spend much time completely in free flight (i.e. able to just run off and meet people, hang out), as I have to serve as the native guide for two younger brothers. I’m working on that, though.

I was driving a white and gold car made in Atlanta. That probably sort of makes up in team spirit for not having a radio to listen to the game while driving.

I had my two kids in tow as well. It was fun to see what they enjoyed and what they didn’t.

This was the second DC for one of my younger brothers and the third for the other. One of my younger brothers did a day in costume as a character from Commander Keen, one of Id’s earliest works, and the people I *did* meet up with (guys from our town) had a Lara Croft from Tomb Raider, a Nathan Drake from Uncharted, an Alan Wake from Alan Wake, and Maes Hughes from Fullmetal Alchemist.
