Now let's get back to Motor City Furry Con and stuff of Saturday afternoon.
bunny_hugger strolling around the first floor of the hotel.
And getting a good eye on her pinball game.
She's got crazy flipper forepaws!
Looking pretty proud of her game, for how hard it is to play without vision.
Looking down on the pergola from back in our hotel room.
Furries approach the Halkan high council, attempting to negotiate for dilithium rights before the magnetic storm forces them to beam up.
A photograph of our meal voucher. Can you spot the vegetarian option?
Back to the hotel lobby, which looked about like this all weekend.
Folks playing games outside the board game room. The closed land border meant the people who normally stock the board game room couldn't be there, so I guess as long as you have to bring your own games you might as well set up anywhere that seems comfortable.
This pond outside the hotel had ducks a couple times although I don't seem to have photographed them.
This is the to-go station, set up on the west end of the hotel near where most of the convention space was, like, the dealers dens and the arcade room and all that.
Looking down from the second floor of the activity space, where most of the convention events were held. The to-go station is in the upper right corner. Furry Logic, on the left, was the booked-solid escape room we'll do some year when they don't book up four months before the con.
Trivia: By June 1861 enough Confederate regiments were leaving for the front on Sundays that ministers complained about it, claiming ``the church going people talk about it'', and appealing to the government to have units moving some day that did not interfere with the Sabbath.
