I would have made the trip, but unfortunately I already had a family-reunion-style vacation planned when the dates were announced. Too many other people had already committed to the date to back out!
Glad those who went had a great time, and wish I had been there.
Next year!
And if it makes y'all feel any better, I was at least in the PNW. The whole fam-damnly was down in Cannon Beach, watching the whales and playing in the sand. We all got savagely burned, and today my forehead looks like it's covered in wet toilet paper.
