Well, we've not decided yet...  But we were leaning toward no...  The issue is the gas round trip...  we have some friends that said they'd give us a ride so we could save on gas, but they're east of Denton, so FTW is pretty out of their way...  and then there's the whole issue of the car seat for the kid...  But if this is Gauwyn's only weekend this year, we can re-approach the subject and see...

We only visit once a year, we are from the north (Iowa ). No problem, catch you next year.
Will you be out Sunday?  There is a possibility of us coming out on Sunday

Yep, both days

It was good to see you again. I hope you made all the shows you wanted to see.

Starting to get things ready for the 11th!  Hoping to get to the La Quinta early enough on Friday to lounge by the pool for a bit and then it's faire!

We had not planned on coming this weekend, but you don't get a forecast like this weekend's in May very often! Sounds like perfect weather for Faire and we will be there Sunday...

From their webpage...
The Dublin Doubles will be performing at Scarborough Renaissance festival on May 12th and 13th, and playing with the cast musicians for the rest of the season. We will be playing at 12:30 and 3:00 PM on the Sea Hag Stage, and 3:30 PM at the Rose and Crown Pub. Make sure to come out and show your Doubles some love!
