So I spent the last two days (well, part of them) at a game convention north of Baltimore. Huge thing - more board games and board gamers than I've ever seen in one place (including Gencon). I was able to take a second place in Puerto Rico last night, and a first today - I would have been in the semi-finals (right now, actually)...) - but we have relatives coming into town, and I have to prepare. Took my daughter, who came in a respectable third (only 4 points back) in her PR game this morning. We'll both go to a similar Con in November if it works out with her school schedule. Fun stuff - there's a ton of variety in board games these days. If you still think of only Monopoly and Risk when you think of board games, you should have a look here
