I'm pretty sure Robbie is not planning to come to MUni Weekend. Whose a
wuss now?

Don't know if anyone is driving down from the Seattle area, but I think
John Childs might be...

Me, Harper, and Dan Heaton are driving down from Seattle. We'll be
leaving Thursday morning (early). I hope we make it to Truckee and
Northstar before everyone is asleep. 🙂

I think we'll make good time. Harper and Dan drive like they're
possessed.

We're still trying to figure that out. Current plan is to leave around
5:00 AM. That would put us in Salem at about 9:00 AM. We'll probably
be an hour or two behind you the whole way to Truckee. I might have to
aim for an even earlier start time to avoid rolling into
Truckee/Northstar at midnight. We'll see. I'm not a morning person.

Pretty simple solution here. Just sleep in whatever vehicle will be
driving, and you'll already be there in the morning when things get
rolling. If it's your car, drive to Harper's or Dan's...whichever is
furthest north...the night before, then curl up in the back seat with a
bottle of Thunderbird. By the time you wake up, it will be breakfast
time in Salem.

Meh... firstly I'm 14 and I can't drive. So maybe I should steal a car
and drive to a muni weekend even though I'm well under the legal age for
driving. Would I be less of a wuss if I did that for you John 😄

It would be a rough drive accross the pond. You could fly, and get here
in no time (literally, with the time difference.) Once I flew from
Sydney to SF and landed before I left.

BTW, In Perth, you have the best pizza in the world. Even the pope
agrees!

Yes, when we came back from Japan after Unicon, we also arrived before
we left. But our bodies knew.

Yes Robbie, if you steal a car it will make you less of a wuss. The
question is whether that's the kind of non-wuss you would like to be in
life. You called us wusses for living too close together. But the
question was who is driving furthest to MUni Weekend, and apparently
you're not. This year at least. I have to agree that driving from AUS
would not be recommended. You could take a sailboat most of the way
though...
