Default I wouldn't miss it.

My wife and I go every year and I'm really looking forward to it. I love spending a day at the museum and another day buying autographs from the Hall of Famers. Most of the signers are nice and they will spend a little time talking with you. I would rather get autographs at some of the smaller shops on main street instead of the big crowd at the Turncliff Inn. There is a small vintage card show on Friday and Saturday and I can usually find a few cards for my collection. It's fun to talk to Ted at the show and his buddy Don Flewelling. I even enjoy sitting out in the sun and listening to the induction speeches. Rickey Henderson's speech should be pretty interesting.

I know a lot of folks don't like the crowds, but my wife and I find it exciting. I'm happy just to buy lunch from the vendors on the street and sit in the shade and people watch.

It would be nice if several Net 54 members are going if we can arrange a meeting place for dinner.
