Elissa, While IGHR has always been on the wishlist, it wasn't until this year's offering of Course 9: The Five Civilized Tribes that I was prompted to make attending happen. Being away during the last week of the school year will make it difficult, but my family will survive. :-) I thoroughly enjoyed GRIP last year and do have that on this year's list too. Unfortunately, that means no NGS or FGS for me. As a seven time attendee for these conferences, I'll miss them, but do agree that at this time the Institute format is a better fit for me.
