No Saturday Nite gathering this weekend--gonna be too darn cold

[rengypsy]

Ok, the weather report has a norther coming in with full force Friday and Saturday.  Saturday evening low is reported to be in the upper 20s.

While I love camping and huddling around a campfire, i am thinking we will have enough of that in upcoming weeks...and we should postpone the outing at the Seven Sisters for this Saturday until next week.

We will all be better off not having to stave off colds, sneezing, and down right frigid temps.

While we will be on the grounds Saturday and Sunday, we are NOT gonna gather at the Seven Sisters this Saturday nite after the sun goes down.  I would encourage any and all to join Zane and crew at the guerrilla marketing venture in Somerville instead.

See yall this weekend during the days and next weekend around the Seven Sisters for merriment.

so Saturday was going to be the big push for staining and
painting (volunteer day) is that still going to happen? Is it
just going to be cold or rainy as well?

Oh dear, I'd planned on testing out tent this weekend. Maybe we'll push that back. Thanks for the heads up!

[rengypsy]

Saturday is a work day!!!
we are gonna paint signs, stain picnic tables, pick up sticks, etc

we are just gonna retreat into villages and towns that evening to conduct guerrilla marketing . . . passing out brochures, postcards and spreading the word.

sunday is a job faire and we will continue working that day too.

time is running out: if its not raining, we will be working.

we are hoping the waterlines will be in all around the faire by next weekend.

electrical before the 13th

and the last couple of weeks will be putting the finishing touches (installing signs, raking, putting out the trashcans, etc)

fun times are ahead of us!!!

thanks so much for all of you and the dedication you have shown to making this the best first year faire ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

see many of you saturday and sunday,

Ummm, just so you know, paint and stain won't be worth a damn in those kinds of temps. Check your paint and stain cans for optimum temp. conditions.
