What about the Washington one? Anyone been to that one?
We attended the NWOLRally and the Overland Expo last year and had a good time at both (first timer for both as well). The NWOLRally is more of a giant meet/greet with lots of vendors. The Overland Expo has more technical courses to attend and classes you can go to. The NWOLRally, not so much.
We met a lot people and took in some lectures and such.
Overall, we enjoyed both Rallies.
