Any news on the why? Four hours round is a bit much for just a whim.

I'm afraid we are missing a crucial name of the meeting.  It says annual... Annual what? But it is the closest to me, so would love more details. Wait--in March? I might be insane to travel during the March snowstorms! LOL I'll jump to Shannon's page, maybe she's put more information in there.

I found the info on it.  New York Times best-selling sci-fi/fantasy author Jim Butcher will be the featured speaker at the annual meeting of the Friends of the Library on March 4 at 7 p.m. in the sanctuary of the Fayette First Christian Church. The meeting is open to the public. http://www.hocopub.lib.mo.us/friendsoflib.html

My husband and I will be there with our son.  We've been planning on going, but in a realistic fashion didn't finalize it until last night. lol It may be an eight to nine hour road trip, but I'm sure it will be worth it!

Gas for an 8 hour road trip: $130. Food: $40 Book for signing: $30.
The look on Jim's face when he realizes your entire family drove 8 hours to meet him for 37 seconds. Priceless.

Only thing you forgot were the hotel expenses, but that's just about right.  I'm exceited. I just have to make sure to remember to pack the book for him to sign.

Yep; plus we're going to take our time and have a vacation at the same time. My husband grew up around there and he's also talking about taking me up to Chicago (never been that far north/never been to that big of a city). It's going to be an interesting time.
