It's been a few seasons since I've been to GLMF, and I'm very much looking forward to visiting the shire once more, especially in lieu of everything that's been going on with the city. Gah. Such ridiculousness.
The last time I visited, my fiancee was getting over having Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease, so it wasn't the best of trips.
Hopefully we'll be bringing a few first-timers to this faire (hopefully not the last!) as long as everything all pans out :)
