Hi, I know I am new here but I was just wondering if anybody was going to this con? It is in Portland, OR Sept.29&30

My girlfriend and I will be there on Sunday. I just moved to Seattle so its about a 2.5-3 Hr. drive for me but think it will be fun, and i can see more of the pacific northwest. I hope to get a few old Shmups I have been in search for!!!

It's funny that this expo is getting so much exposure, now that I don't live in Oregon anymore. I lived in Eugene up until about three months ago, and now I live in Columbus, Ohio. If I were still out there, I'd definitely make the two-hour drive to Portland, but as it stands, there's no way I could make it there now.
Still, I'm glad it's going on. Take some photos for us!
