Based on the website....looks like it's gonna be a large convention. Lots of vendors. Good location.

Was planning on it, but doing the Alberta thing in early July….
I was going to do a quick trip to Idaho but I’m on call that weekend. Might be able to squeak Montanas in though.

Ive never been up in that part of the country. Most of the Civil War battles occurred up that way. May make it a historical trip. Never been to DC either. Would like to see those buildings.

Gettysburg and/or DC is about 2 hrs north/northwest. I'll likely never have another reason to go up that way.

I'm in agreement about the NTA (I'm not a member)....but this will likely be the closes big convention from Georgia I'll get a chance at.

Those midwest locations are double the drive distance.

You'll be about 2.5 hours from Gettysburg.

The bad part about Gettysburg is you'll need about 3 or 4 days to see it.

About an hour or so South of Gettysburg is Antietam.

Gonna research those battlefields and see if I can incorporate a few into this trip.

The New Market battlefield and museum is just 15 minutes North of the convention site. It's a very interesting site and museum. Cross Keys and Port Republic battlefields are just a few minutes away as well - not as "developed" as the New Market site, both do have parking areas and walking paths with marker plaques.
If you've never been to a National, I'd highly recommend trying to hit this one - last time it was in VA was 1989.

Been doing some reading about the various battlefields. Seems a good Confederate General, Turner Ashby, was killed at Harrisonburg. I'll do some reading on the other local sites.

I've been to two Lima, Ohio NTAs and one in Springfield, MO. Those big conventions make for a great trip........for a trapper....its like heaven on Earth....lol.
