The parade was fun on Sunday - the weather was perfect! This was our 2nd parade with R2 roaming the street, and unfortunately he is so slow that it resulted in a huge gap behind the group in front of us and us. No more R2 driving along parade routes until he gets faster I think! Pictures can be seen on Andrew's flickr site here http://www.flickr.com/photos/jeditrilobite/sets/72157617016013457/ . We had folks back at our house after the parade and the last people left at 10PM - long day! I'm bummed we missed Greek Easter with EJ and Christina, but what can you do?
We're trooping Saturday at http://www.higgins.org/, doing some armor presentations and trying to show the relationship between the SW universe and real historical arms and armor. The museum seems to be doing some neat events like this, so if you can't make it on Saturday but are into this kind of stuff you should definitely check them out!
We leave in less than a week for our vacation and I can't wait. I'm not sure if all of my work is going to get done at work, but I've managed to stay in a kind of a Zen place and I'll be OK if some things have to wait until I return (my boss has assured me that this is OK).
I've had fun traveling and I'm excited about this vacation, but I'll also be excited to be back to 'normal' life again. There are lots of house projects, sewing projects and things of that like that I want to get back into.
