Hokay, lets see how much I can put onto this. If I forget anyone here, I'm sorry. Names are my worst ^^;;
So the trip started out on Thursday where I drove down/rode with
foxalbiazul which I haven't seen in quite a while, so was super happy to do such. We arrived in the afternoon and while my roommates flight got pushed -WAY- back, I got to go around and say hi to a bunch of people, wen to the game room to see 
stargazer79 then got into playing a big game of Red Dragon Inn with 
tobiasamaranth running it that was way too fun. During the game came in my roommate Stratosfear Tully and 
XiaoMao and her boyfriend, the second who gave me my new (very long) tail which I love that she made. Somewhere during unpacking process a batch of us took a trip to In-n-out before random parties through the night.
Friday I got up and got myself rolling to get my conbadge from
animecat and made it to opening ceremonies which were fun, Furry Fiesta I feel has the best of them. After a bunch of meet and greets, I got to ride with 
Rahata, Havok, and Yavi Fox to search for spirits. This involved a trip where we were in a T-top Trans Am, which as it was put, we had a fox in the back whimpering just from the ride XD was amazing fun. Made it back in time to get dressed up and get to the GOH dinner where I got to eat with Tully, 
SableGryphon, 
RhubarbTheBear, and meet new friends like 
Daggar. He apologized, but I got to laugh as we could see Radio signals kept interrupting Sable and I said I could just see when he got that distant look he just had an "Idle" text pop up over his head. Then the concert that night... OMG, with 
foxamoore, Rhubarbthebear, 
Cosmik, AJA among others up playing a concert that truly blew me away. I loved -all- the music but the biggest surprise was them playing one of my favorite songs from Ren Fairs "March of Cambreadth". I got to spend the rest of the night hanging out with friends I've not seen in a while.
Saturday I didn't wake up until late and got to do more hanging out, heading into the dealers den to pick up a few items, including the Fox Amoore End Tide album and an AJA album, as well as the preview of
bucktowntigers new album (Just listened to it... oh wow wonderful my friend). That night I made it too the research conversation where Nuka discussed how his research began and continued about the Furry Fandom which was a frankly fascinating discussion. After this I got to go to rhubarbthebears and cosmiks show Hello World which was great fun. I got to sit with 
Keefur and 
calamity_cougar and after the show got to tag along with the four of them to get some Ghengis Grill. We returned in time to catch the Sublevel 3 concert which was was great. That night I got to party with Rahata, Tully, Havok, Yavi, Cosmik, so many others, and made it down to the end of of the Oklacon party which I saw many more. (And don't ever doubt Rahata and Havok's punch. You will not be sober by any stretch of the imagination the night you drink that o.O)
Sunday I actually managed to crawl out of bed to make it to AJA's concert. That was an amazing one I was so happy to get to. I didn't know he went to Muskogee Ren Fair that I've been going to for years, but now I'm going to have to get to his concerts when I'm there. There was a song about Red Riding Hood that when it ended there was a moment of stunned silence that there was applause, I can't wait until I can get my paws on that song ^^. I slipped in a bit late to the Dealing with Depression panel with Path and gang, and lost track of time with the discussions that was such a good one, I sadly missed the Fox Amoore concert, but don't regret it for what I heard in that panel. Later down I made it to the Dance Competition which is -always- fun, and got a few last second things done before closing ceremonies. I got to see Firr pied in the face as well as Istanbul which is always fun. That night I went to get some sushi with Keefur, Cosmik and Rhubarb again, and spent the night trying to keep up with the con by hanging out with people I knew until dead late at night before I finally crashed.
Sadly Monday didn't get to see anyone out because Albi and I rode out at 7am making way for Arkansas again. We got to have a nice discussion in IHOP then when I got back in the passenger seat I passed out and didn't wake up until nearly home (Fox, you were supposed to wake me up so I could drive some =P).
In short, this con was amazing. The new conspace, we're going to have to learn it. Unlike Circle Con of the old hotel, this one you have to be deliberate where you want to go to meet with people instead of just wandering and landing at things happening. Also felt empty, but that's because this con space is so very -MASSIVE- compared to the old one. As I said in the scritch and bitch, I am so happy that this particular con had so many music concerts and wish they would keep it up.
Some people I need to shoutout that aren't above,
vacurien_bushi_hare DUDE! You're back! It's so happy to see you again! Omg! 
spinningpeanut I'm so glad to finally see you in person, your suit is adorable! 
Okidoki Seriously, one of the first people I met in the fandom IRL at my first con, was good to see you. I would go on with all the other faces and names, but then it would be a wall of icons (more than it already is), but seriously, I had such a great con and was happy to see everyone, it ended far too short but I hope that I can be at another one soon to see you all again.
