Readercon 23: Thursday, July 12, 2012

We got out of the house just about on time — meaning we were an hour late (11:00 AM) and we arrived at the hotel at 9:30 PM. After the drive and several slow downs along the way, we arrived just as the ambulance and fire department were finishing up. The next morning we had […]
