Well, after 5 years in a row, I am bowing out of this year's event. It's just too wearing to spend 4 days at a trade show, then arrive at BWI Saturday night for the remaining half of the Getaway. I hope to return next year if I don't have a conflict. I know, Amos, "delegate". But I would have to clone me to delegate this one.

I'll be thinking of all of you and that beautiful Chesapeake shore. Sing one for me.
