Strange and beautiful noises are afoot in the forests of Sherwood.... Songs of night creatures whisper over the ripples of a nameless pond.... Odd flowers that cannot be found in any book are begining to open thier eyes.... Out of thier petals spring little people....  Boys and girls dressed in flower finery..... They dance about the toadstool rings and ride upon puddle jumping frogs..... But there are other noises... The howling of beasts....Somewhere between dispair and laughter....  Shadows against the full moon reveal the beasts to be half human... Crude clothing and cruder cutlery...  The glowing eyes in darkness breathing chaos  ....And yet another kind of sound.... A wagon wheel slowly squeaking barley up a winding path...Joining in the whiny conversation betwixt the miller and his beast...  Glorifying god by taking his barley to a place where it may be made even better than He made it on the seventh day... Fire gently bubbling a pot of stew... The peircing PING of a smith at his anvil... The songs of children... Forest folk with thier habits and thier trades... Casting off the shrouds of Winter... Ready to make all the world alive again... To step out of antiquity and breath again... To dance with the living that would believe in these ghosts.... And to teach us what we have forgotten... To call us back to the moon... To the singing... to the dancing... To the dreaming.....

 I am going to Scarby on Sat-( I found a ride!) so I will miss the April outing- but I will see you soon. I am spreading the word about Sherwood!

Tis not the length of the staff- but the magick there in!

Rengypsy might I make a suggestion as to possibly putting up some indicators say 200-100 yards out from the turn, like maybe streamers on a stick so that when we are getting close to the turn off we know it is coming.

As someone has said, it is in a very fast part of the highway where the turn off is and is easy to miss.  But if we had some sort of indicator we were close it would be easier to navigate the pending turn.

Has any clearing been done for the Participant and Playtron campgrounds?

Have you determined how you want to layout the campgrounds?

I can come out early Saturday with chainsaw, chain oil, gas, etc.

Unfortunately, my travel trailer is still tied up at Seawolf Park, so I can't stay overnight.

Do you have a bulldozer available for clearing the campgrounds?

rengypsy

i have the general land layout of the campgrounds. no bulldozer we can use.  one on the grounds, but a private contractor's.

can meet you there as early as 11am saturday.

thanks

The construction over the past 2 months is quite impressive. Entrance gate looks great. Most of the border fence complete. Several stages almost close to completion. Vendors ready to start construction.

Saw Rengypsy's photos of the goodies being manufactured, along with his description of the other items.

I'll probably be back out in June, as May is taken up with my submarine veterans events. At that time, I may bring up my travel trailer and spend full weekends as the campground work may start then.
