Britt and the hobo convention were once wonderful experiences, but boy do things have a way of changing over time, as it did during my 5 years away. I really missed it and longed to return, I just wasn't aware of what I was missing. I can only write based upon my own experiences. Let them do as they have suggested in the past and hire actors to portray hobo clowns. We've given this town 100 years of our annual convention, we can easily give another town our next 100, a town whose appreciation and respect for hoboes is genuine and sincere.
Lets face it, Britt's a bust.
