I don't mind driving...the only problem is getting the time off needed to make the trek

Or how about somewhere in the middle? Maybe someplace like Iowa?

Seriously, it would kinda make sense. Iowa (Des Moines in particular) is where I80 and I35 meet so road trips would be a little less onerous.

Iowa would ROCK! Minneapolis wouldn't bee TOO bad for me, but other people might not like it. Other places in the midwest could be Omaha NE, Siouxer city IA, or Sioux falls SD. I say Des Moins IA or Sioux Falls SD.

I know and w/the new convention center in Boston, I wonder why? I guess hosting the DNC doesn't compare to the hobby show...

Ugg, I've driven through Chicago once and it was enough for me to not want to go back.

The Rosemont Expo Center where I-hobby is held is gigantic.
Would be hard to find another place just as big in the central states.

Pshhh Chicago is beautiful in the right places. Just like every other place it has its good parts and bad parts but I wont argue with you if you didnt like it. I will say Rosemont is a really nice town bordering Chicago and is well worth the drive. Your choice. Hope to run into some of you guys at next years iHobby!
