Dragon*Con was a blast as always.  It only served to refine my decision to never miss a single Dragon Con for now on.  There was a lot of partying, a lot of drinking, and tons of things that you never want to see again in your life.  But that is the thrill of Dragon*Con,  and Myself (Bear), lonewolf, and our new member Bad Jango all attended.

     After a long drive out to Atlanta, we all went out to hooters for dinner with the FL 501st guys.  We would meet up with Joe the XO from Carida, and others that night in the hotel lobby.  The next day we brought out R2.  I went up on a balcony and was able to drive him without ever being seen.  It was extremely entertaining watching people look for the driver, with no luck at all. 

     Later that night at our garrison dinner at Hard Rock, people caught the first look at our hogs.  Yes the scooters came out for a spin.  Everyone loved the scooters, and they proved to be an absolute blast all weekend.  We also took R2 out one last time that night in the Hyatt, but he would break a Gear that would be unfixable for the rest of the weekend.

     Saturday Morning we took the hogs (Scooters) in the parade.  Everyone once again loved them.   That was until we tried getting the scooters into the mixer when it was then a sequence of getting kicked out of places for scooters.  Cannot keep a good scooter down though, as our garrison also had a blast rippin it up in the droid hunt with Garrison Carida.  Our to garrisons collected the first and last droids, and enough to place us second to Carolina with 122 droids.

     The drive home would end up being the most depressing ride of out lives as it had been the year before.  But hey we have C3 and Dragon Con 2K5 just around the bend.
