Thanks for the help, folks. I feel better about this whole thing now. I'll be taking the train down on the 5th, and driving home with my TD on the 6th. I'm excited!
I've got together a tool kit (kind of like those bags that mothers have all set up and ready for them to grab to take to the hospital when they go into labor), I'm working with my agent, and I'm going to verify whether or not the plates stay with the car.
Oh, and I'll leave my giant bag of marijuana at home.
peace,
sam
