Thanks to Fark, we now know that the Wombat Awareness Organization will receive a bequest from the estate of a millionaire. Who knew?

The good news: we are heading west for a show soon! The bad news: it's only as far as Weatherford, TX, about 25 miles west of Fort Worth. But hey, it's closer to you! ;)

I'd love to get out to CA again, but the farthest we have actual plans to travel anytime soon is to Kansas City, MO, for the International competition next year.

We won't necessarily be at all of these, but here are the scheduled International conventions in future years:

2012 Portland
2013 Toronto
2014 Las Vegas
2015 Pittsburgh
2016 Nashville
2017 Minneapolis
2018 Orlando
2019 Salt Lake City

So... in 2012 you can travel up the coast to see us in Portland, or two years later over to Vegas... or in 2018 we can have a massive gathering in Orlando!
