vacation time again

Yea for vacation. For me vacation is a two week camping event called Pennsic . This is very similar to many of the other SCA events, but just on a larger scale. this year, due to the economy and gas prices, there was only 10,500 attendees, and we have been running close to 12,000 and 13,000.
