Wonderful!

Okay, Amos.

I arrive at BWI on Thursday, September 30, at 7:55 p.m.
I will spend that night in a nearby motel, which is TBD.
I depart BWI on Monday, October 4, at 1:45 p.m., which means I have to be there by 12:45.

See? I really did it. And I decided against the Sousaphone, but I will be bringing the double bass AND my Steinway Concert Grand. I'm still undecided on the timpani: do I bring the set, or just the big one?
