I posted in the wrong MMP. Must be a Monday. :smack:

So…

> This year, there’s no Santa’s Sleigh; we’re driving ourselves to the location. _That_ is still classified, but at least I know it will be north of the orifice. Good for me! 🙂 It’s 115 miles from my home to the orifice, so my drive home will be a little shorter than usual. (Yes, we’re leaving after lunch – about 1430. So no waiting for everyone to get loaded onto the bus, going back to the orifice, and then heading back through Seattle traffic.)
