It wasn't bad. The Wicked Tinkers were great, of course. Got some items I needed.
Bit of a cock up with the shuttles from the garages in the morning. We arrived at the parking garages at about 8:40, anticipating getting to the gates just before they opened at 9:00. No shuttle buses, no sign to say where they were going to stop.
People started to stack up. Pretty soon there were about 100 people standing around on a street corner.
Finally, Red_Raven_Studios and I got back in our car and ran down Central to the park. Two big buses sitting there, doors open, drivers coking and joking. We located an event volunteer and let them know that they had crowds building up at the parking garages, no buses running, no signs posted, and what the h-e-double toothpicks did they intend to do about it? She hopped on her walkie-talkie, we headed back to the garage. Right after we parked and got back to the corner, the buses arrived for the first run to the park.
Other than that, it was a good day.
