Everything almost packed and ready to go
Thursday, March 19th, 2009
In the hours after this morning, I've managed to finish packing up almost everything, with the exception of the Apple IIgs. That is the only thing left to pack though. The Bally is put away, the last display board is done, and the plastic display signs are all done. I even made a short little video of the preparation stuff (which I need to put on DVD some day - I've got stuff from the last two years as well).
The only main thing I have to do is put a nice grouping of songs onto my iPod shuffle, for some music at the show. Hopefully that won't take too long. Of course I'll make my last minute checks, and make sure everything is set for 10 am tomorrow (Thursday), when it all gets packed up and then setup in Oconomowoc (say that three times really fast).
My next posting will be after setup on Friday, hopefully before midnight, with possibly a few shots of the area before the crown settles in on the weekend.
See you all there (who is going to be there).

Getting it all together
Thursday, March 19th, 2009
It is now partway into Thursday, and I've managed to get a fair amount of things done so far. The broken Mac SEs and Plus are put away, along with other things that didn't make the cut this year. I've cleaned up the small Sony TV for use with the Sinclair. The Sony was in my kitchen, so it needed a good cleaning, and looks a lot better now. I've packed up the Odyssey2 and G7400, and will be doing the Bally shortly. The camcorder is charging, my Macbook is being power cycled (just felt like doing that), and I'm even sneaking in a few loads of laundry. And it is only 10am! I'm now switching to some paperwork, part of which will finish the last display board. Then I'm off to get the plastic display signs put together, two of which I have to create today.
That is it for now. I'll post some more later today when I've got more done.
Just two days now till the show! (And tomorrow is setup day!)
