That conference is about 8 hrs away at least. I also couldnt come up with that much money that quick. I only have one credit card and it has a 500 limit and it is almost at that limit already from emergencies. I dont have any reliable transporation right now either. My van broke down 2 months ago.
I'm trying to find a van with a wheelchair lift that I can buy or have donated to me.
I'll keep my eye out for another conference tho.
