Fontana Village feels like you're in the middle of nowhere with an emphasis on the driving/bonding experience. Unfortunately, or maybe welcome to some, Blowing Rock is a sleepy tourist destination with a focus on fall leaf-looking. The main positive I see for this transition is the additional space. It was at the point where you almost needed to book a year in advance to get a room for ZDayZ, which hindered some folks ability to go. I totally get it and hope it only helps to increase the turnout/participation, but kinda surprised it wasn't kept closer to TOTD... Could have been in the Cherokee/Bryson City/Robinsville area with a short cruise to the TOTD. With that being said, I'll be there to see how it turns out and wishing for the best. See y'all there!
