Never been...and as interesting as I'm sure it would be, in the end I've decided to hang tough here in North Carolina

I'll be going for the first time in my life. Hopefully not the last. Will be working in the NMLRA booth most of the time, but hope I can see the sights, maybe shop a little. Long drive from Minnesota, so we'll see what I can do and learn on a short weekend.

OK straightshooter, but it sounds like you better have a nice hat, or cap on. Have a great time, wished I was going too.  Gary

I will be going with my dad again this year, probably on saturday.   Don't think I really need anything, blew my budget on my gun a couple months ago, probably get a pocket full of flints

It's a must see and 40 minutes from my house.  Plus it's getting to be a reunion of the ML and ALR family! ;D

I'm going up on Friday for the day.  Weather report just said 96-98 degrees, hot and humid, just like always!   :o

I anticipate being there Friday and Saturday, taking in seminars and wallowing in the muck and mire of this flintlock passion. See you there.
