Marscon 2008 was held yet again at the Holiday Inn in Bloomington, MN during the weekend of February 29th thru March 2nd, 2008.  Once again, Bob and I put together the Propatorium, our second year at the Con doing this.  Again being a lot of planning, it worked out great and we had even more success and more props than before.  I also ran a panel at the Con on the up and coming Indiana Jones IV.  Just click on the photos below for their full size shot.
