Smile My two cents...

I was fortnuate enough to not be too far back in the queue during last year's parade and I had coverage at every intersection by motorcycle mounted police. I didn't run into any intersections I can remember without at least one officer being present and controlling cross traffic. From that standpoint, at least from where I was, there were little problems.

My only complaint would be that the group just sorta petered out when we ran out of Columbus...leaving several of us wondering where the hell we were, where we needed to be to get back to the hotels, or whatever. I followed a bunch of giddies as they tried to find their way back to the Quaker Steak and Lube for a quick beer-n-burger before they headed back to the hotel....wound up getting my ass lost and driving all over until I ran into some Cobra-ites heading the other direction...a quick U-turn and a couple of trips to the red line caught me up with them. Turns out they were headed back to QSL, too, so all was in harmony once again. Got lost again leaving the QSL - just took a wrong turn off the expressway....my fault, no problem...should have paid more attention to the signs!

But, having said all that, remember that us Rebs don't venture north of the Mason-Dixon line too often...too far behind enemy lines for most of us, donchaknow...

This year, I'll be more careful about having a city map, and hopefully, there will be better maps and written directions in our registration packets...

So...I guess from my humble perspective, anyway....LET"S DO IT!
