I will be attending next year, same with the group I'm in, just as we have last year and a couple of years before that.. We will come if it rains, if it snows (that'd be a first I suppose) if it's dry and hot.. We see it as a week with friends from across the globe, running around in gear that we collect, seeing cool vehicles you only see in museums and buying stuff from the trading area..
The new site means less mileage for us, but even if it had moved in the other direction and added miles we would come, it's just a lot of fun :-D
I do hope we get some Arena information in the following months so we can start planning our arena battle and hope it gets approved!
