Yes, it was almost an international and it didn't lack for Kim's attention at all.

With only about 80 coaches and about 130 people, it was smaller than many but did not lack. What was grand was the 30% first timers. That meant that there were a lot of new faces to meet.

But, you know, without none of our Canadian friends, either of the Kens, no Emery and JimK only on the screen, it was just lacking something. We still are glad we went. This may have been the first time we didn't win anything, but that just not important. We went through Chicago in the morning traffic and it was still bad, but we mad it.

About 20 minutes ago, we crossed into Indiana on I-94. We are pointed toward home. We have a planned stop in Portage Michigan to buy fuel at the Sam's club there, and then it is run for the barn time.
