Now that I am no longer on active duty, I have no excuses for not attending this year. From my location however, I am looking at over a 19 hour drive assuming I take no detours to scoop up other 2GNTers on my way to Norwalk. I definitely want to take my car but that is a significant time block before & after the SO dedicated to commuting. I may resort to flying in and out instead.

When the school calendar update is released, I can see what my schedule is during that time period and if I can afford to cut Friday & Monday.
