Countdown to Sherwood Forest Faire 2012

[Lady Gryphon]

We also have reservation for the Quality Inn in Bastrop, TX for opening weekend.  I just bought opening weekend discount tickets and I'm now off to inspect our Garb to see what we shall bring that weekend, or more importantly, what is in need of cleaning and repair.   


We made arrangements for our furry four legged child with a speech impediment to stay with his breeder. 

No I'm not excited either. 

Merlin, I will pack a bottle of GOOD scotch,(at least 12 year old) since you and I seem to enjoy it.  The lead crystal glasses might have to stay home, I don't want to break my Waterford Crystal.  But we will find something appropriate to drink it from.

What seems to be missing in this countdown thread, is a countdown. So here it is:
It is 19 days, 12 hours, 54 minutes, 20 seconds until Opening Day Opening Cannon!!!!!!

We made some great improvements to our parking area this weekend, and our tent area is prepped and ready for move in.  Still lots of behind the scenes stuff to do.  Fix the arbors, find a chimney for my anchor lamp, stage the camping gear, weather proof the tent (again).  And all in three weeks.

I've got 19 days and 25 minutes to cannon on my clock! Fingers crossed the last few days here go FAST then quickly slow down so we can all have lots of time to enjoy Sherwood!

So close, yet so far!

[Merlin the Elder]

So close, yet so far!

You're not kidding, Maeven...it's almost 500 miles! "Lord, I'm 500 miles away from home..."

[Captain Teague]

Got you beat. It's 599 for us. 

[Merlin the Elder]

Yeah, but how many songs are there about "599 miles?"

(cross post from FB) So apparently, my pregnancy dreams are getting weirder and weirder, because I just had a cat nap dream that I had my baby shower at Sherwood. ROFL!!!!

[KiltedPrivateer]

No better place in my opinion (o:

[Captain Teague]

Yeah, but how many songs are there about "599 miles?"   

Touche. 

And I echo KP...what better place? 

[maeven]

I woke up thinking, "Man, I gotta get to faire... I'm dreaming about it!"

I'll tell you what, Maeven, you bring your baby to Sherwood, and we'll give her a shower. You bring the soap and towel.

[maeven]

LOL!!!! 

[Rani Zemirah]

It's Maeven who'd get that shower, since baby isn't dues until May, I believe!
