Road trip?

[mikekn]

So, would it be worth it to drive five and a half hours to attend an SCA event that is having a games tourney?  I've been tempted to attend each year since I've heard about it, but the plans just never come together.  On the plus side, it's a game tourney I don't have to run at a small event that sounds like a lot of fun.  On the down side, it's five and half hours each way.  That would mean driving down Friday night, finding a place to stay, attending the event on Saturday, and driving home on Sunday.  So a whole weekend gone, just so I can play Fox and Geese against unsuspecting strangers (ok, other games as well).

I'm a fan of the weird road trip myself, including the long ones (for example my weekend in Dallas for an anime con, 24 hours each way, or the old day trips to Boston, 12 hour round trip in one day).

Thanks for the Norton link! He's doing good so far with his history. I'll have to drop him a not and see if I can get permission to post them on my Norton site :)

You win! =) The longest I've ever done in a day was 15 hours/780 miles from Berkeley to Phoenix when mutual LJ friend kyroraz lived there.
