Yeah, it looks like a good con. Great lineup of guests, stars, artists, etc.

There's a reason you separate military and the police.
One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people.
When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people.

If we rented a van it might be cheaper than flying. thinking

Hotels are $50 to 80/ night. The Sun something was 1 mile away, has kitchens & microwaves and was $50/night. Tickets are only $40 or so for the entire weekend.

We can always stay at a better hotel closer to Downtown if we had a car grin

I checked hotwire for rental cars, we could rent a minivan for around 50-60 a day...let me go figure out some mileage, brb.

Conservative estimate (using a modest 20 mpg hwy) grand total gas and rental for a minivan would be between 500 and 600. If we had six passengers, that would be around a hundred bucks apiece...much cheaper than flying AND we get a vehicle for better hotel staying.

time = $

So we could leave Friday AM, return Monday if we drive. Hmmm..... I'm still trying to talk dh into it, let me see what I can figure out tonight. driving vs. flying vs. time saved, etc.
