I didn't know what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised.
Number of RVs was WAY down. However, the parking was packed on Thursday and Friday. More people than I expected on Saturday morning.
Halls were crowded on Thursday and most of Friday - very normal. I thought that the number of members with tables was pretty good, considering that many of them are in the vulnerable demographic. My impression was that most stuff was priced to be sold rather than just to be admired.
Got to meet our young YouTube stars, Chris and Jason - nice guys.
Orange looked a little empty due to the missing big dealers; however, I didn't really miss them - it gave me more time to talk with folks and look deeper at the old and unusual stuff. The lack of big dealers also meant that the Standard Gauge Module Association was able to set up a huge layout - they ran some beautiful and unique items.
Not sure what meet the naysayers were attending - overall, it was a very positive experience.
