Southwest flies from Panama City Beach direct to BWI.  I think it's like $5 or something.

I'm putting in for Friday and Saturday off (4/30 is my birthday!)  I'll be rolling coins from now till then to make the trip!

Panama City's more like 90 minutes away...  That's much more reasonable.  I know I can't go direct from Pensacola which is closer.  I'll figure it out.  Would rather go direct.  BWI is good so I can stop in and see "The Shelf" and hit M B Klein's.  I do need to check with the unit calendar when I get back tomorrow.

It was a toss-up between the Spring RBQ and the fall Convention, and since I take command in July I figured the RBQ would be less of a burden on the unit.

just popped into this thread and caught the drift ...  ;D

Panama City is a (long) one day drive from Balmer. (I just got back from Cape Coral);)

Well, there is a nice little spur that NS uses to store track equipment.

The Hard Hat was a nice find, We passed it once and thought it was closed down...Those big Vitamin Y`s were $2.25 each..

I got it this year Dave, Just got a Jeep Liberty, I think we can get 5 asshats in it for the trip "downtown"

Thanks Ian!

They are great looking trees Dave!!

BTW, I too have at least 2-3 bags of these in storage......  ;D

Has anyone tried the leaf flakes on their Supertrees? They seem a little large for most prototype species. Exept for perhaps Sycamores. I thought about maybe grinding and sifting them a little bit smaller, but I just left that on the list of things to......oh look! Something shiny!!!
