    Going to a family reunion in IA, in the little roadster. I've thought about it, and might throw something together. But if it's an extra pair of shoes vs the radio? Well...

    Caused a screw-up with my club's reservation at our normal FD operating site, too, so we were forced to wing it at the last minute this year and set up at the Lakeside (CA) FD HQ. From a PR and emergency readiness standpoint, this actually makes more sense than the usual place way up in the woods (and allows us to operate as a Class F) but it's a really crappy location for radio—no clear shot to the northeast due to an adjacent hillside.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
