Welcome to a strange world. Dumpster fire is the perfect description. On the plus side, it can only get better. I hope!

It was such good timing and we love the eerie vibe, even if we lamented the Stampede not happening. Next year though, watch out!

Glad you like them! There’s lots more coming, but most won’t be till the book is done later this year.

This year is a write off for everyone! If we survive it all unscathed it’ll be a miracle.

I know, what an odd feeling it was standing there at that time.

It was a strange feeling standing there with no one about on what would have been launch day.

Hmmmm, not sure the million plus folks who visit it each year would agree. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea though.
