I live in Tennessee, and everyone I've talked to has given me some excuse like they have to take care of their kids, they have to work, they're afraid of catching covid, they're just going to wait until people try to come into their house and steal their guns, etc...
I'm going even if I'm the only one but I sure wish I had more support around here. I thought my state was the volunteer state.
There are a TON of us "alone" literally after 3 steps you'll find your people. I do a lot of music festivals solo, there's a lot of freedom doing these kinds of things on your own.
