Every year I go to "Paw*Con". It's not a real, proper convention, though; my friends and I started calling it that because, in the furry fandom, gatherings of furries tend to be "meets", "circles", or "cons". Plus, it only became "Paw*Con" when we moved it from being hosted at Rozberk's place (where we called the gathering of Macro/MIcro fans, "Roz*Con") to Milwaukee where Geemo, Seph, and Quinn live.
I've been going every year since 2001. Each year I cook for my friends, we hang out, play games, see movies, and go to restaurants all while enjoying each other's company. Seeing as the first time we did this ended just days before my father passed away, this annual gathering has taken on a larger meaning for me than (probably) most others in attendance. For me, it's an annual reminder of my "family of choice": my closest friends, no matter how far apart we are.
The road trip started on a Thursday afternoon and took almost 6 hours to drive from Minneapolis to Milwaukee. But it was worth the trip. Some time around passing Madison, I looked into my rear-view mirror, saw the sunset-touched sky, and felt a wave of relief wash over me. It was as if my stresses and troubles were fading away.
This image shows me entering Wisconsin as I cross the Saint Croix river on Interstate 94.

After being told, several times, at Perkins in Minnesota that "we don't cook poached eggs" I was surprised and happy to find my eggs benedict cooked properly. Yay for Perkins in Milwaukee!

I understand that by sharing this story I condemn myself to birding geekdom for the rest of my time on this planet and accept the fact willingly.
I had tried in vain, for hours, to capture a good shot of this Red-breasted Merganser diving. I would shoot, look at the review screen, frown and then wait and shoot again. I was certain the conditions were too difficult to get the right combination of shutter speed and ISO for the shot I wanted.
But when I got home and looked at the shots I realized that in this one capture I could see his head under water. I thought that was pretty cool! Like really, really cool. I even did the cool surprise photo dance as I called to Cindy to come see it. She once more gave me that look of "I am living with a mad man" and walked away.
It is not the best shot. Too much implied motion and not enough focus. But at least I know I can do it. Now I just need to work on taking the shot in better light so that I can shoot at a lower ISO and faster shutter speed next time
