LawCon is Coming!!

The annual summer con season is starting and my cousins are coming to my house in July. That means LawCon is on!!
LawCon is what I call the 1-2 weeks of almost non-stop gaming I get to be involved in when my two cousins are in town. Since they have confirmed they are coming this summer, I get to dust off the campaign again and run them through some adventures. In the next few days I will be recapping the campaign, the characters and last known hooks.
I started this campaign about 3 years ago. Each year, my cousins have journeyed from New York down to Smyrna. One is very interested in gaming, the other is only moderately in to it. They both are willing to continue a game that they only play once a year. So when they leave, I pack up all the campaign notes and store them for a year. When I hear they're coming back, I take out the file, refresh my memory on all the hooks left out there, and prep any new dungeons the party may be planning on heading to.
This system has worked for the last few years. I am just glad I can keep my cousins interested in a game that keeps them returning here each summer.
Later...
