AC 2014 and random thoughts
11 years ago
So we are finally almost all sorted out from our trip to AC this year.
One of the best things about this year was having our furry adopted family members sharing the suite with us. made for a very stress-free and calming retreat for things.
Mental note is made to always do this for travels with groups.
So we were in the Westin and though everyone complains about the elevators..I guess I just tend to plan my day to account for such things and ignore it (plus being in suit a lot helps :) )
We did have major issues with our room keys for some reason..their system kept deactivating all our keys and I seemed to have made more trips to the desk to have keys recoded than I have ever experience before..and when it would happen it was ALL of the keys..and luckily someone was almost always in the room when it happened. Just was annoying at times.
I and Sparkles got to help out Sheppymomma with the group dance video..which was tons of fun and we can't wait to see the video.
AND Lee Trocar is awesome!! hope he comes back in future.
Art show was great as usual..and I did gather a few items up..and also was able to get some items that will be going to a fundraiser for the Native American veterinary Service project I am working on..more to come about that in the future...
I did get a few small commission things..and well..now I need to try to find the artists as I could not locate them on Saturday after the fursuit parade (and Sparkles and I were totally tired after the video shoot, mad rush to GoH luncheon and then mad rush back to the parade). I am trying to find my note of how to contact the artists but I am also hoping they have kept track of the email I gave them for me since I paid them with no hassles. I did not get to the dealer's room on Sunday because we were busy with other things and then had to go to the long line at the Art show to pick up things I had managed to win (some of which are now going to their new homes).
And for all the complaints people have about the Westin at times, I personally have very few issues with them ever..they generally are very accommodating for me (granted I am a preferred member because of business travel at times so..maybe I get to be "special"..who knows)
I had hoped to get to spend some more time with a few friends but alas..so much to do and so many people..made it hard to find time for all..
so I guess one simply has to choose what to aim at..and that was My goal for this year..
Now to think about next year and start saving up for the trip...
