Relaxicon 2019

Last weekend we joined friends old and new in Pennsylvania for Relaxicon 2019. The event is put on by Wilmark Dynasty, a gaming group that has been around for decades. Yes, I said decades. Looking back over the big live action games they hosted over the years, it looks like our first game with them was way back in 1998. We haven't participated every year, as we have moved more than a few times since then, but we do like to go when we can.
There won't be a bunch of pictures, since I spent more time playing games, or socializing with friends than I spent looking at my phone. Which is to be expected. This was one of many games of Space Base we played. I even managed to win once. 
We had some trouble getting a dog sitter for the weekend, so someone had to go with us. That meant loads of trips outside to play in the sun. Pet-friendly hotels are great when you need one. 
I also managed to convince my friends to play a couple rounds of Rise of Tribes. I didn't manage to win, though.

  1. That's a great idea to have a Relaxicon. It's like family game night but on a bigger scale.
