Yeah, the only one of those I've been to is NC. We occasionally get down to the faires in NC.

NCRF (near Raleigh) we've only been to a few times. We like CRF (near Charlotte) a lot better. Sometimes we've gone a week or two after MDRF closes since their season runs a little later. It's a nice little faire.

I hear there's a decent faire in Louisiana as well. Never been to it though.

I've been to the Deerfield Beach in FL faire and GARF three times, this past spring being the most recent. The CRF is one of our favorites as well and we try to get down there at least once during their run. I went to the KYRF once and although still fairly new it has a lot of patron support. :)

I am pondering FL and AL, I am headed to TX in November and have initations to a few in Florida. However my lady wants to go to a little party around February and a trip to AZ is a possibility as well around December.

I'm in FL.  I live near Pensacola for now.  There are fairs in Pensacola in March I believe, I also go to the one in Tampa, which runs much longer, somewhere in the neighborhood of Feb - April.  And I will try to attend the Mobile, AL faire next month on Nov 13th or 14th.  Of those 3, the Mobile AL and Pensacola FL are very small, only one weekend.  The Tampa one is the best.
