Agreed, Boulder to New York alone was quite the trip, still can't believe
what another 16 hours tacked on what have been like....ug!
I still remember that damn Towncar going sideways into a ditch at 80 mph.
That was all crazy slow motion! Especially the trying to stop part! You
yelling "hit the brakes!" and me "I am I am!!"...never will forget that!

Agreed...I never would have done that trip alone...just too damn far.
18-20 hours is fine by yourself....anything over that is just too much.
Glad you did go, so I had the chance to go to one Waterfest :-). And I
have to say, you westcoasters really have alot to learn from the
eastcoasters as far as partying goes. The pre-show hotel antics at
Waterfest are NUTS! :-)
> Do come! Barring a catastrophic failure, you wont regret it.
Agreed, ND is a fun, relaxed atmosphere. Tons of people to meet and hang
out with. A definate guaranteed good time!
