Whelp I've put in for the time off so it looks like it's official! I can't wait to meet everyone.

Taken my share. Only an issue for carry-on luggage.
Exactly. On some of the planes flying in and out of Charleston, though, even a normal sized carry on bag has to be gate checked.
Every flight I have been on in and out of Charleston I have had to gate check my carry on. It would have to be pretty small for that to not happen I would think.

I won't be there, but at the very least I'll be in Germany seeing David Gilmour live that weekend. I suppose that's a decent band aid.![]()
It's killing me...it really is...
I'm going to have to miss it this year...I'm going to about 5 weeks post Gastric surgery, thanks to my dogass insurance carrier...at that point in my convalescence I'm going to be just starting back on solid foods, if all goes well...plus I'm going to be just coming out of the "no heavy lifting" stage...I simply cannot imagine being able to tolerate a 500+ mile drive in the car while dealing with the probable intestinal issues, let alone the idea of spending most of the 'fest in the bathroom...
I hate it...I hate it for me, I hate it for @Help!I'maRock! , I hate it...
Gilmour's emerging from the houseboat?
:hmm:

It looked, for a time, like it wouldn't happen until after P-stock...then they thought we could make a June date work, which it didn't...but now I'm at a point from which I'm committed and can't delay it without having to repeat several of the procedures and clearances...I must have missed something. I thought the gastric surgery was off for this year?
Anyway, I'll figure something out.

I hope you get there...if not, next year is ON...sorry, my brother...
You'd better...cop0David, you've gotta do it for you, man. We'll be sure to raise a glass in your honor.
Airfare is still pretty cheap if I fly out of Colorado Springs. I may book this pretty soon.

Bummer Jello, but your health comes first.
