I'll be there. It's gonna be crowded, but I'll try to get some decent pics. They were taking out the light poles around the vault yesterday, so they can get the crane up close to it. There was an old guy on the news yesterday that was there when they buried it. He said he took a feather out of his hatband, and stuck it under the rear bumper with some chewing gum. Should be interesting to see what kind of shape it's in.

Assuming 10% interest per year, it would get you about $11740.

I don't know why I'm getting so anxious about this. I feel like a kid on Christmas. I guess it's wondering what kind of shape it's in. Hoping for the best.
