Me and my mate had a good time at Reno's Biggest Little Furcon, seeing old friends and meeting new. My dad was a gracious host for us and we hung out with him when we weren't at the Grand Sierra Resort living it up with the furries, games, panels, and all the things. Lots of pics were taken and I hope to post some at some point. We had such a good time, it almost made me forget that a fire destroyed half my mother-in-law's house a few days before the con.

The same week as the con, a fire tore through the roof of my mate's parent's house. Nobody was hurt, thank goodness. It started near the kitchen and worked its way into the attic and went down the house. The most damage was to the bedroom that me and my mate stay in when we visit. We had a lot of things in that room, but nothing irreplaceable, like a couple pieces of antique furniture that they lost. The total estimated damage was nearly a million dollars. Who knows what the insurance will pay though. The ironic thing is that they were renovating the house to sell.

It made the local paper: http://www.mtdemocrat.com/news/fire.....ld-hill-house/

Oh, and I witnessed a car crash on the freeway on the way home from the con. It was between a Winnebago and a Mercedes, and the Winnebago took off. I called 911 and left a statement with the police and everything. The guy in the Mercedes was okay, he just had a concussion.

What a week.
