I've been waiting for one to come to the south.

If you need a second magazine, its time to call in air support.

Came into this world screaming, kicking and covered in someone else's blood.  Don't mind going out that way.

You planning on finding a campsite? Let us know if you do.

What would be hilarious is to get a $500 room at the Biltmore to go to the Mother Earth News Fair, but I'm just not that hilarious.

More planning to see what I can arrange to scoot up there.  But a campsite can be often be found.  Amazing what a bit of looking and other things can do for you.   ;D  And I can even be sneaky on that stuff.  Parking lots, truck stops, rest areas and all kinds of stuff.

Might be a short one where you park a bit away, and just run on 20 amps when you usually use 30, but you never know until you look.

I'm sure I can find one - plus I can boondock as easy as not and I'm super stealthy.

I really meant more in case some other people wanted to join in and have a little social time.

Rest area, on highway XX northbound at mile mark bb, picnic shelter at north end.  A less good option but generally there.

Tipigirl and I went to the first one held in Asheville a couple of years ago. My advice is GET THERE EARLY. There was a lot of traffic congestion and the event was super crowded. All the major speakers were standing room only. Some really come vendors and I had a nice long discussion with Dan Chiras (see: http://www.amazon.com/Daniel-D.-Chiras/e/B001H6SBOI ) about energy efficient building technigues.

Enjoy!
