Unfortunately, it looks like the recurring work event that ate half the Getaway for me a couple of years ago is going to eat the entire Getaway this year. Unless a real miracle occurs, since said event is in California this year, which means I can't speed down I-95 from NJ like I did before.

Of course, depending on your perspective, this could be either bad news or good news. Bad news for the folks who enjoy having Sheryl and me around, good news for the folks who can be reasonably assured of a filksong-free Getaway for a year... ;-)
