See you at the expo !

This is only a three-hour drive for me, which is not bad as these things go. I'll be checking my availability!

Wow, you're much more of a patient traveller than I am !

lol - it took just over 8 hours from Providence, Rhode Island for me in my Mini Cooper S convertible. It was a lovely drive in December 2012.
I'd like to go, though it would be in a Nissan Juke Nismo.

Ah, those photos show you went to that other big expo in Canada: World of Commodore.

World of Retro Computing is a different event, with a different organizer behind it.

Are you an Amiga fan? If so, please make plans to attend World of Commodore in December 2025 for the Amiga's 40th anniversary.

This was part of the festivities at World of Commodore last year for the C64's 40th anniversary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkVHy8g149k

Bil Herd remotely on Sunday! My wife is insisting that I make the trip!

You're lucky to have a great wife that supports your Commodore hobby!

Yes. Yes I am.

I'll be going on Sunday. Will any other Denialists be there?

Thanks for this! I planned to go, but something came up, so this was cool to see. They sure had a good volume of Commodore stuff going on, unlike the last retro computer expo in my area.

Some people's idea of "retro" is Nintendo Wii.
