This looks like fun. Maybe if I didn't lose my job this morning, I can get them to pay my way (yeah...right).

Oh Pru, did you really lose your job this morning? Because if you did, then you really deserve a mini vacation. How long would it take to drive to the festival?

I don't think I've lost the job yet, but I don't think they're happy with me today. It would take me 2 days to drive (Really only a day and a half, but I'd have to stop at every historical marker).

I'm going to google the museum and check it out.

Melle, I was looking at that subversive knitting and lace exhibit. That looks cool!

What could be better than controversial crafts!?!

I don't believe it. A (sort of) TBD event within driving distance and I'll be out of the state.

Drats!

Sounds like fun!
