Stayed dry in my tent
No sunburn
Sparring with everyone, old and new
Homemade root beer at Hydra camp
New friends
Hanging with Rogue Company and feeling like one of the cool kids

Bad:
No castle battles
No monstrous bonfire
Soggy campsite
Less than admirable unit attendance (life, etc.)

Ugly:
Had to go home
