Now what I would like to know is how the big cast party went that Jacob threw as I wanted to be there but we ended up having to leave on Monday morning.If I know all of yall it was probably wild and crazy like most rennie of the season cast parties are.

Hi there! Juliette here (better recognized as "CVS" this year) with a report on the party that we threw over at Jacob's. We had a pretty good turnout. A few people took the paddleboat out on the pond, we had a fire going all night for roasting and heat and while there was some heat lightning the rain did stop in time. Jacob spun records during the night and I think everyone had a really great time. I'll see if I can collect all the photos that a few people took into one album for you guys to see. I'd also like to say to anyone that was there, you guys are pretty awesome with your own cleanup. There wasn't much for me (with Syrilla's help) to do after almost everyone was gone. By about 9 the next morning you couldn't even tell there had been a party.

But yes, there was dancing, drinking, eating, laughter and much fun and relaxation going on.

Rachel and I are already planning for next year. Mwahahahaha!!!

Hopefully I will be able to attend next year.Now this going to sound funny but I only know a few by name the others i only by their character name so Juliette if you could help me remember who everybody is then that would help me know who i am playing with next year at your faire.

I played Catherine Victoria Smith, the town herbalist...hence the red letters that spelled CVS on my apron. Next year I have no clue what I'll do...*laughs*

Welcome back Lady Catherine.

Lord Wessex,
wow I already have a nickname.If Lord Wessex is what you all will remember me by then Lord Wessex it is. My Character name is Lord Wriothsley which alot of people have a hard time pronouncing.

[lordwriothsley]

Julliette,
I forgot to add don't be sorry.I like Lord Wessex it is an awesome nickname to have at a faire. As a matter of fact you guys at Tenn.Renn are the second to give me a nickname that I like.Back at my home faire in Virginia My nickname is Horsey which stems from a character that I have that became popular after only 2 short years.

Hey you! No worries hon. There were a lot of people who had the same problem with work the next morning. I'll post a link to the pictures once I get them from everyone. There was much fun abounding.

If you can snatch it off my head you are still more than welcome to it. (or snatch it from the bench during the morning fight call) I love my hat.  

Take care hon!

Lady Catherine - I do believe you have Kit and I mixed up (since we no longer have our pictures)... dang gone it I'm Lord Wessex!!!  Stop trying to steal my evil from me Kit!!!  Your not allowed to have it.

It was great to work with you guys last weekend and thank you for taking us in, playing with us, and keeping us from wilting in the heat like some unattended flower.

I had two of the nicest comments I have ever had at faire last weekend, the fist was the Lord Wessex comparison... which I love, since I love his character in that movie, second, I forgot who it was, but someone said... "all of the patterns you mixed on your costume makes me want to puke, but it looks good on you"... that might be my favorite compliment ever!

That ALMOST sounds like it was right out of Caddyshack.  All it was missing was the free bowl of soup!

Sorry Bill it looks like the torch has been passed on to you.I promise that I will not try to steal your thunder from you any more LOL! Okay it's my turn for a nickname now i'm interested in seeing what yall have for a gold black and red noble like myself.I to must echo Bill you guys were truly an awesome bunch to work with this past weekend.

I will also second his thanks on taking us in and keeping from drooping like an old rose petal from the heat as well.As far as comments go I to was payed two very nice copliments as well both coming from your gracious queen. The first one she payed me was through Lord Effingham (Bill) and Mad Maggie (Melinda) when she told them that I was alot of fun to work with.However the second was directly to me when she said that handsome young nobles like myself are hard to find these days. I have never been paid compliments like that before and I can not even begin to tell you all how good that made me feel.To echo what I said before you guys not only made my weekend but also my entire faire season as well.

So....the first cast party photos are gathered on my myspace page. I'm still trying to wrangle in a few others that I'm pretty sure are floating around out there.

The page is private so if you need to add me, please feel free. I don't normally say no to new friends. If you don't have myspace, let me know and I'll see where else I can put them for ya.

Thanks to everyone who came out to play with us. It was neat to see all of you there at faire. *grin*
