Yay! It took us about 15 hours to hit the Gulf when we went down to LA in 1997. I'm definitely flying in - it's worth saving 8 hours over $20 (which would be about all I'd save over driving, really).
Oklahoma really is kind of in the middle of nowhere, eh?
If Skeeter and I drive we could pick you up at the airport. If anyone knows how to have a good time in NO it's me and my husband. Come hungry, and thirsty!
Ohio to LA? Definitely a flying trip. ;) I drove to a con in Indy last April, and it seems about as equidistant from OKC as New Orleans - the gas $$ was hideous, but if I have one or two people with me to split it like we did for Indy, that'll definitely be cheaper than flying. And 11 hours of driving between 3 people isn't too bad. ;) (Having our own transportation made it a lot easier to get around town, too.) I'm going to have to dangle this in front of some people and see what I come up with in the way of travel buddies, heh.
And yeah, not a lot here except for wildfires. ;) Not even any decent fan meetups.
