I'm flying to Philly tonight for PAXU and I am so excited! I haven't been to a convention since PAXU 2019, so it has been three entire years since I got to see a lot of my friends in person. If you see me, please say hi! I will be delighted to talk to you.

@beyondsolitaire

How big is Paxu? I am in driving distance, but frankly I've never really considered going until this year, when everybody seems to be talking about it.

@Sagrilarus It's the only big con I go to, but it's definitely not GenCon-sized. There are a lot of booths, but there are also tables where people just play games. I like that I can both see new offerings and just hang out.

@beyondsolitaire

Thanks for the word. I may give it a shot next year.

@Sagrilarus I always teach summer school so the non-summer cons are where it's at for me. I'm planning to go to the newly-announced historical games con that Kevin Bertram wants to do in DC in March, and I am absolutely determined to get to SDHistCon next November.

@beyondsolitaire

Whoa -- that con in DC would be plush. Need to look that one up too. I'm a history buff.
