  1. I'm heading to skyfest too. Its only 4 hours away VS 16~18 hour drive for WFFC. It would cost me 4 times as much for fuel this year than it did to attend WFFC last year.

  3. I'm in Texas and it sucks! up here in DFW its nothing but oversize cowpaster. cops in Texas are assholes! I'm here only for my job.. I'd move in heart beat if they ever opened base other than Texas or Oklahoma! or LA / Mississippi / the south...I'd love to move back to upstate New York. The finger lakes area is nice...
