I once envisioned the 2019 Society for Commercial Archeology conference being bracketed by leisurely drives to and from, but as time passed the schedule on both sides of the event filled in and squeezed out most of the leisure. The first day included just enough time to check out the freshly painted fellow in the picture. He’s not part of the conference but he is exactly the sort of thing that the SCA is all about. The conference itself is being held in Wisconsin Dells and has been given the name “Wacky Wisconsin”. It’s a four-day affair running June 5-8.
This entry is to let blog only subscribers know about the trip and to provide a place for comments. The journal is here.
Since you’re out in our area.
This Wednesday, Liz and I are heading out to Lebanon, Missouri, to stay at the Munger-Moss Thursday to Monday. Lebanon is having their annual Route 66 Festival Friday and Saturday 14th and 15th. Friday they have the party at the Munger-Moss. (The next week we’re heading to Kansas City to tour the WW I Memorial/Museum Monday or Tuesday.)
Perhaps we can hook up at some point.
Let me know.
I’m on a kinda tight schedule but will probably end Sunday somewhere around Monroe, WI. Maybe breakfast Monday.
