ACK!!!!!!! I had the chance to get a direct flight from Dulles for $278 roundtrip plus tax/fees and I waited to see if that's where we will be living.......now the flights are listed at $590........ 
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

I found really good flights on Southwest last night. We have a stop but don't change planes going down and direct coming back. They're out of BWI but for $206 RT, I'm not going to complain.

Will these be available at Jazz Fest? The cheapest one is $72.clearlakeparrot wrote:http://www.art4now.com/cgi/commerce.cgi ... T-20110102
Here is where to get one
Aw hell, what am I saying.......you know I'm going to do it.
And just an FYI - the C-Marque and ReMarque posters have been signed by the artist AND the person honored in the work! So if anyone has an extra $600 or $900 laying around........

When I went in '08, they were available at the Fest. I ordered mine before I went, because I had never been, so I did not know they did that. If I remember correctly, they were selling it in a tube like it would be shipped in. I paid $69, so it has not gone up that much in three years. The price of it now is $105.
