I would love to, but I can't this year.  One of these days.

Cyrano is more likely to make the trip than the rest of us :)

I was going to go but the wife just informed me that the weekend it takes place 'I have other plans'. It'll be the second year I miss it.  :(

Played a late 19th century fictional match-up between German and French pre-dreadnoughts.  New rules based on "Fear God and Dreadnought."  Kind of cool, I got to sit next to Larry Bond for most of the game. 

Tomorrow is WWI day for me.
