Seeing the pictures and reading everyone's happy reports make me glad to be a part of this community, and I think they help keep us connected to each other, even if only a small number of people can go in any given year.

Nicole, I honestly don't know if it would make enough of a difference at this point. I'd like to say it's possible, but I am so deeply pessimistic at the moment that I can't see it happening. When I pull my head out of the sand and figure out my taxes, I'll have a more balanced idea of where I sit.
I have space at my place too, and may have a spare car.
