It's a 4800 mile (7725 km) round trip. I don't think I'm going to make it his year.

You want me to drive this time? After all, you drove us to Dayton last year.

Here's one in Fairfax, Northern Virginia. Pretty good show for a local one.

Sorry we didn't get there. I wanted to turn left at Albuquerque, and Carl wanted to turn right. We ended up going straight, and wound on some God forsaken Canadian Island, in some wayward town called Duncan. The people there were really strange, even by Carl's standards.

It's been several years since I attended Vienna, but I recall it being a nice 'fest!

The 22nd is right in the middle of a huge, two week shutdown we're doing at a nearby paper mill. If I were to leave town during that thing, I'd best stay gone... :irked:

Round bacon, maple syrup and French fries with brown gravy and cheese curds on them. I think we went through a worm hole and ended up on another planet.
