Spring Updates

April brought some fantastic events: fossil show was a predictable fun, Gilmour concert - an indescribable sonic experience, tour in downtown New York - fascinating and educational. The premiere of "For the Love of Spock" truly hit all the notes. Adam Nimoy and his team have created a tremendous documentary, both a touching tribute to Leonard Nimoy and a beautiful gift to the fans.
I will have to forgo the Philadelphia Comic Con this year - truthfully, I was tempted to go only due to possibly getting a very specific photo op, which not only sold out while I was deliberating but was really quite outside of the budget I have for this year's conventions. Another time. :)
Same really goes for AACE meeting - time and logistics just don't align this year, unfortunately.
