CONduit: Itself and the Journey Home
Monday, June 14th, 2004 02:30 pmWhen we last saw our Intrepid Authors, they were on their way to Dee's Diner with Elaine and Thuy, there to feed both body and soul.
In case you're ever in Salt Lake City, Dee's Diner is a cross between a really big Denny's and a neighborhood Baltimore diner. The waitresses are for the most part in the forty-and-above range, perennially harried, and tough enough for rock 'n roll. They take your order with a certain world-weary patience and deliver the food to the table with dispatch if not aplomb. The food is varied, plentiful and cheap. Just like going home, without the humidity.
After our soiree at Dee's on Thursday night, we walked back to the hotel, parted company with Thuy and Elaine – they to the hot tub, we to our room. Steve and I sat in the window overlooking the Daytona 500 Car Sale in the farther of the two parking lots, and talked for a bit, then turned in at not-very-much-short of 1 a.m. SLC time.
The con Officially Started Friday at noon. If you want to read all about it, look behind the curtain.

Here ends the Con and Trip Report.
