It was my first trip using VRBO, and with a little cabin in the woods on a lake as my base camp, I went each day to watch some of the toughest, most interesting and fun competitions that I have ever been lucky enough to witness. Mixed in with some true Americana folk music and lore, this event will always hold a special place in my heart.
