Yup. I live in Nashua NH, so I go up every year. It's only a bit more than an hour from the house, so I leave early and get a great parking spot on Lakeside Ave.

Best days to go are Wed and Thu. All of the manufacturer reps are there, and traffic isn't horrible. You can still get from The Weirs to Laconia HD (and the other displays) in a reasonable amount of time. Traffic gets worse on Fri, and it's insane on Sat/Sun - avoid the weekend if you can.

My son's been living in Prov, working in Newport - but he's overseas this year (JWU internship). I leave the house 'bout 8am and get there by 9:30am. If you're lookin' for someone to go with, let me know.

Leaving NC on Friday.

Meeting up with some friends in Gettysburg on Saturday.

Will be in Conway on Saturday night.

I go every year, wife's second trip, first time for 2 or our group. Rented a house for the week this year, prices are way down.

Leaving here on Wednesday and staying through Saturday. I agree, Weds and Thurs are the best days. Weekend really sucks because of the traffic. Will be leaving sometime Saturday and riding to Boston to visit family.
