Yeah, Toledo. One of the bigger (well, it *used* to be) regional ones. I suspect the only other island member close enough is YX, and he's still a good 4 hour drive. But one never knows, call districts don't hold the weight they once did.

Worth attending?

I've been to the Findlay 'fest a couple times - liked that one a lot.

For an indoor swap, it was still good. Not as good as Findlay, but nice. Worth the drive up from central Ohio, probably not unless you really needed to see R&S or something.

Unfortunately, it's been on a bit of a slide and a new location this year, so we'll see. It adds a good 20 minutes of drive time for me.

Hey man, I waited almost 2 minutes for you!

You would have met my oldest son too. He wants to be a staff lawyer for the ACLU, I'm not making that up. You two would have pleeeenty to talk about.

We ended up going to an outdoor show at the Cleveland IX Center this morning. 'DSG had ordered some artwork from a vendor who was in attendance and she wanted to pick it up at the show, else we would probably have made the 'fest.

The ACLU was a great organization at one time, I was a yearly contributor myself for many moons. But that was back when they were actually a strictly Constitutional organization and would represent any and all on Constitutional grounds. Now it's just another home for left wing loons that wish to hoist the Constitution for those they choose and deny it's rights from others, which explains why there's no more money from me. :D

Actually, I'm almost as close to Toledo as you are but, I couldn't make it either. I would have let you buy me breakfast though!
