what a great idea!
As I'm getting ready to retire this year, I'll have more free time to roam. A few hours drive is a pleasant way to spend the day and throw in some swords , you got my attention!
I've thought about going to the Tampa show , or Chicago show not out of the question , but closer more intimate shows might be just the ticket!
I have traveled to Boston, Philly and RI for Iai-do seminars and always enjoyed them, a get away .
