Shit's all sorts of different now.
Boooo! And also unacceptable!
Dear scheduling fairies -
Make it a bit easier I need Laura time as well as hugs from her gorgeous hunk of a husband. I haven't seen them since SF and this makes me sad sad sad.
Ta ever so -

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I promised him that we would just do some mini F2F trips when the timing is easier.
You mean, like, stopping in NYC on the way to/from Otter Lake?

Lake Delton, in the Wisconsin Dells, is gone.
Ha! I was just coming to post about that. I didn't hear about it until this morning.
ETA: Laura! So sorry you're not going to be able to make it. We'll miss you. ::pout::

Does that mean all the ducks have washed away?

Real or mechanical? Heh. The Dells cover a very large area, Frank. There's the upper Dells and the lower Dells with all kinds of stuff to do. I'm willing to bet you can still find some ducks, if that was one of your goals for the F2F. Right now, the biggest attraction affected by the loss of the lake is the Tommy Bartlett water show and that's only the ski part of the show. They still plan on doing the land and air part of the show.

Sadly, the F2F is not happening for me this year. The first time I heard about the Dells was a throwaway reference on MST3K where Joel piped up with "Visit the Dells - ride the ducks!" at one point, and that's always stuck in my head (partly it was the voice he used for the line). So I was curious.

The Ducks are fun to ride!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
The thought of riding a duck scares me in my engronkified state.
Also, boo-hiss at the cruel fate which is depriving us of Laura and Frankenbuddha... and every Buffista who can't be there.

No, just the houses.
